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. |

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. ------------- Donny Cisneros |

One of the best ideas I have seen posted in the thread. Or you can compare and contrast the ratio of crimes by different races to their population in the country, based on social background, ethnic background, yearly income, religion, etc. You could also go into the different types of crimes each group participates in. -------------

Here's an idea Detail the number of crimes comitted by which race and the preferred method. May shed cultural light on things. And find the rate of murders actually solved. Good luck! ------------- "HO is right..." - Procarbinefreak |

Write a paper about how legalizing marijuana would greatly reduce the number of arrests per year, dramatically reducing the number of police needed. You could also discuss how violent crimes would likely decrease because the underground market would no longer be in existence. -------------
