    Posted: 24 April 2006 at 12:23pm
I'm writing a research paper on Crime rates, And I was wondering if any one had some interesting idea's or facts that I could put in the paper.

I've already been to Wiki, and FBI.com... Now i'm weeding through google for credible sources.


Any help would be fantastic.

Just a thought, try something like crime rates in big cities vs. past and current political parties that are in office in those cities. Just my .02

There is a town in Michigan right across from a town in Canada, and they have dramatically different crime rates. I can't remember the name of the town, but one of my professors was discussing the difference in murder rates last year.

Why? Physics class is interesting, physics lab is even better. The only downside is having a professor that can only speak broken english.

My physics teacher in high school was a direct decendent of the Rutherford you read about in the textbooks, and he really gets into it. He had a lot of fun with it too. We'd measure the speed of light in the halls with mirrors and lasers. He'd drop bowling balls off the catwalk in the gym and we'd time it falling (hopefully) onto the mat. Great guy too.

if you want really good sources look into using databases... i'd link you to my college's database access but you need the campus id and password.

whites target blacks for 2.4 percent of violent crimes, while blacks choose whites more than half the time. Not to mention about 81% of rape victims are white; 18% are black; 1% are of other races.

Explain how, unlike what so many black advocates claim, whites are arrested more then blacks.

Talk about the difference between # of males arrested compared to femals.
