What is one example of Human Rights Violation?

1) Tiananmen Square Genocide in China The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 culminating in the Tiananmen Square massacre (referred to in China as the June Fourth Incident, ostensibly to avoid confusion with two prior Tiananmen Square protests) were a series of demonstrations in and near Tiananmen Square in Beijing in the People's Republic of China (PRC) beginning on 14 April. Led mainly by students and intellectuals, the protests occurred in a year that saw the collapse of a number of communist governments around the world. The protests were sparked by the death of a pro-market, pro-democracy, and anti-corruption official, Hu Yaobang, whom protesters wanted to mourn. By the eve of Hu's funeral, 1,000,000 people had gathered on the Tiananmen Square. The protests lacked a unified cause or leadership. In Beijing, the resulting military response to the protesters by the PRC government left many civilians dead or severely injured. The number of deaths is not known and many different estimates exist. There were reports that 2,500 people were dead and 7,000 - 10,000 people were wounded according to the Red Cross. Following the violence, the government conducted widespread arrests to suppress protesters and their supporters, cracked down on other protests around China, banned the foreign press from the country and strictly controlled coverage of the events in the PRC press. Members of the Party who had publicly sympathized with the protesters were purged, with several high-ranking members placed under house arrest, such as General Secretary Zhao Ziyang. The violent suppression of the Tiananmen Square protest caused widespread international condemnation of the PRC government. This is an example....

Do parents have the right to randomly inspect teenager's rooms?

  • Yes, parents do have the right to randomly inspect the teenager's room only if they suspect their teen may be using drugs or alcohol; checking out what their young teen is up too on the the Internet and the parent has seen a great change in their teen. Otherwise the teen has the right to their privacy within reason just as a parent needs some privacy. Without just cause a parent should not inspect the teen's room or read their diary.

Yes parents do have this right. Since their children are presumably minors, parents have legal control over their children. Since this behavior is not breaking the law, it is acceptable behavior. However, teenagers should have privacy like any other human being, and there should be a good reason to search the room, such as possession of a weapon, drugs, etc.

How do you contact Larry King at his CNN email address?

Dear Larry King, I watched the Lou Dobbs This Week show on Sunday Dec. 14, 2008, with his guess Elizabeth Warren who expressed her inability to set forth a comprehensive plan to address the Housing crisis. Moreover, his segment on the War On The Middle Class where homeowners continue to find themselves re-defaulting on their mortgages after entering into a loan modification with their lenders' is on the rise. We have a second wave of foreclosures that will have a greater impact our economy next year as a result of the fallout from the Alt-A and Option Arm Loans that was generated in 2004 and 2005. I emailed a business model proposal outline that will give sound solutions to America's economic challenges. The reason I am confident that this business model can be that "single solution or magic bullet" that Chairman Sheila Bair of the FDIC did not believe existed is because it has been implemented on a smaller scale for years. As an entrepreneur and a practitioner in the area of Real Estate, Finance, Taxes and Business Strategy along with my legal background, I consistently deal with the stress and anxiety of the average American to find real, tangible solutions. The question I have is why haven't the government consulted real practitioners for answers? As I presented to CNN on Saturday Dec. 13, 2008 when I emailed (see attached email), I believe that the reason our New Administration has not made reference to these sound solutions is because the information is coming from a small business that does not have the President-Elect's ear or have access to him since I am an outsider, even though the proposal and all email communications has been sent to the Transitional Team and the President-Elect. I watch your show every night along with The Situation Room, Lou Dobbs and Anderson Cooper 360. I believe the power that CNN has as a media company that is number one for news can be effective in giving its views relief that solutions are being developed. Just imagine what contribution CNN can make to help Americans and perhaps even add to history in sharing with you viewers that there are sound solutions to our current economic crisis. I look forward to your response. Allen Shay, a small business owner. EMAIL SENT 12/13/2008 On Lou Dobbs Thursday show, Congresswoman Maxine Waters wanted to support Chairman Shelia Bair of the FDIC as an initiative to address the current Housing Crisis. On Friday his show indicated that 85% of the viewers felt that the $700 Billion Bailout should have been directed to the Housing Crisis instead of the financial institutions. My questions to you is why is it that the New Administration asked the people of this country for "The new and fresh thinkers" to provide proposals and solutions to our current economic challenges, but fail to respond when a proposal is submitted by a person who is an outsider or a small business? I would like to present to you and your viewers a comprehensive and effective business model that will achieve the following: 1. Stop and Prevent Foreclosure:2. Stabilize Property values: 3. Stimulate New Investments: 4. Create Job Growth: 5. Create Educational Opportunities: 6. Create Accountability:7. Create New Consumer Confidence. This proposal has been developed to serve as a fast-track program to create the business model for the 21st century economy. With you and your viewer ship, you can be the exclusive network who can bring this change into the future. Please contact me regarding my comments.

How did the actions of John Brown deepen the conflict over slavery in the US?

Most Americans were against violence with regards to the slavery issue in antebellum America. This was doubled when a US arsenal like the one at Harper's Ferry was used by John Brown and his men, including some of his sons, to try to incite slaves to revolt. Brown's actions made many abolitionists look far to radical in the eyes of law abiding citizens. In the case of other radical abolitionists, Brown's actions were not applauded but were respected. Unfortunate Brown was already known as a killer in Kansas. This fact hurt the anti-slavery movement. Few people who did support Brown, divided the anti-slavery movement as well.

How does human rights connect to conflict?

Human rights are often central to conflicts, as violations can provoke grievances that lead to unrest and violence. When individuals or groups feel their rights are being undermined—such as through discrimination, oppression, or lack of freedom—they may resort to conflict as a means of asserting their rights. Conversely, conflicts can lead to further human rights abuses, creating a cycle of violence and oppression. Addressing human rights issues is essential for conflict resolution and lasting peace.
