Who said Right on right on right on?

Well, I'm going to hazard a guess and say you're thinking of Chris Tucker, an actor in the movie "The Fifth Element" who played a talk show host Ruby Rhod. Rent the movie, watch it. It's hilarious, action-packed, and I know for a fact he says that quote in there somewhere. I hope I answered your question :)

What courses do you have to have to get an associates degree in criminal justice?

It depends on the college. Typically, about 75% will be courses in general studies such as English, math, literature, science, history, the arts, business, accounting, economics, physical education, speech, social studies, psychology, etc. The remainder (electives) will be criminal justice. The non-state sponsored schools like the "technical institutes" advertising on TV may require far fewer of the general studies but their degrees are not as widely accepted as they lead one to believe.

Here is a typical school's requirements:

Subject - Hours ------------------ English - 6 Literature - 3 Speech - 3 History - 6 Social/Behavioral Science - 3 Fine Arts - 3 Math - 3 Computer - 3 Science - 8 Kinesiology - 2 Electives - 16 --------------------- Total Hours - 62

Here are some typical Criminal Justice courses from which to choose 5 from:

Introduction to Criminal Justice Court Systems & Practices Crime in America Fundamentals of Criminal Law Juvenile Justice System Community Resources in Corrections Correctional Systems and Practices Criminal Investigation Legal Aspects of Law Enforcement Police Systems and Practices

Things change if continuing on toward a Bachelor's Degree. About 50% of the courses will be criminal justice, about 25% will be in the area of the chosen minor, and the remaining 25% will be "collateral" courses, those which the college believes relate to the major area of study (i.e. criminal justice). For criminal justice, collateral courses may include Sociology, Advanced Writing, Communications, Business, Political Science, etc.

it deepens on if the person has permission or not but on the other hand if it is a constrainen worker they have permission

It can also depend on why they are blocking the road. In most States I have been in a tow truck driver could place cones or flares to block a road if they are working on getting a disabled car out of a ditch or traffic lane if there is not room to do so safely without limiting the traffic. Police are not always available to provide traffic control so the driver would have to set up the safety zone

Is AFL CIO a government agency?

AFL CIO stands for the American Federation of Labor And the Congress of Industrial Organizations. These were once separate labor organizations which joined together to represent workers in the trades and industry. They are not government agencies.

Is children's rights a global issue?

It is, although all countries (except the USA and Somalia) have signed the Declaration of the Rights of the Child, giving children basic human rights, such as not being neglected or abused.

What are the injustices of human trafficking?

Every day, many, many innocent people are sold as slaves all over the world. 27 million people are considered slaves in this modern society. The AIDS epidemic in Africa has left many children orphaned, making them especially vulnerable to human trafficking. This is not right. It's not fair, it's not humane.

Human Trafficking is a modern-day form of slavery. Victims of human trafficking are subjected to force, fraud, or coercion, for the purpose of sexual exploitation or forced labor. Victims are young children, teenagers, men and women. After drug dealing, human trafficking is tied with the illegal arms industry as the second largest criminal industry in the world today, and it is the fastest growing.

Victims of trafficking are subject to gross human rights violations including, rape, torture, forced abortions, starvation, and threats of torturing or murdering family members.

Is there any such thing as absolute rights?

If you have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness then so does everyone else. If one other does not have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness then no one does. If all species respond to any command that one simple command is to survive. Every individual has the right to survive. If every individual has the right to survive then it follows that every individual should be free to act in ways that ensure their survival. Any arguments made that would assert that the rights of the individual are not absolute are tyrannical arguments that would subjugate the individual to accepting rights granted them by the tyrant rather than believing rights are inherent. The rights of the individual are natural rights and if they were granted at all they were granted by God and can not be taken away by any legal authority regardless of what act of legislation may of passed declaring otherwise. Rights are most certainly absolute, what is not absolute is that every individual will fight for their rights. All rights are relative to the society to which an individual belongs. I will assume that the question is asking about legal rights under the United States Constitution and laws. Also, I will assume that by absolute you mean not subject to restriction. The answer is generally no. Almost all constitutional rights can be restricted given a sufficient governmental interest. First you must understand that legal rights provided by the Constitution define the relationship between the government and the individual and not between individuals. Thus, the First Amendment's right of free speech restricts the government and its agents from preventing or interfering with a citizen's speech. It does not restrict a private person from such interference, e.g., one's private employer. Further, given a compelling governmental interest, a citizen's speech can be restricted or even prohibited. Another example is provided by the Supreme Court's recent 2nd Amendment decision. Citizens have a constitutional right to possess a firearm. However, the Court recognized that right can be restricted in significant respects. Certain citizens can have that right taken away, e.g., felons, persons with certain mental health problems, and others subject to court orders forbidding such possession. Further, registration of firearms and waiting periods also restrict the right. There are some constitutional rights that are not subject to restriction, e.g., the 8th Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment, and the 13th Amendment's prohibition against slavery. The Due Process Clauses of the 5th and 14th Amendments provide that a citizen's rights to life, liberty and property can not be denied without due process of law. Thus, the very text of those Amendments provide for restriction and denial but require that the procedures used be consistent with due process. However, you must remember that the Constitution can be amended, or in case the government was ever overthrown, it could be discarded. Legal rights are created by law and thus are subject to law. If the law changes, so can the rights. There are those, however, who believe in something call "natural rights." Such "rights," they believe, come from god or are somehow inherent in one's status as a human being. Such "rights" are simply their beliefs. They are not enforceable and do not provide justification for, nor restriction of, any action. Simply put, they are not rights but beliefs. Legal rights are created by an authoritative body recognized by the majority of people subject to it as legitimate. There are no "rights" in the air, no metaphysical entities called rights that inhere in human existence. For more information and discussion on this topic, see the Discussion for this answer.
