Human Rights

The government should put a check on media to control rumors and fake issues that disappoints the nation and our society environment.

It depends on the country or time-period, Jews have lost and gained rights numerous times through history. Generally speaking, they gained their rights back through advocacy, but this was not the only way. Please resubmit this question referring specifically to the country and/or time-period in question.

There are a number of organizations that are actively trying to stop human rights abuses. One of the best known is Amnesty International.

On March 6, 1857, in its Dred Scott decision, the Supreme Court ruled that Mr. Scott, a slave who had spent part of his life in non-slave territory, could not sue for his freedom in a federal court because, as the March 7 New York Times summarized, “Negroes, whether slaves or free, that is, men of the African race, are not citizens of the United States by the Constitution.”

The Dred Scott case occurred at a time when the slavery issue threatened to tear the country apart. Settlers were violently clashing in Kansas and neighboring Missouri regarding the issue, and in May 1856, a pro-slavery congressman beat an abolitionist senator into unconsciousness on the Senate floor.

The decision came just two days after the inauguration of President James Buchanan, a Southerner and supporter of slavery, who hoped the case could help settle the issue. The court, in addition to declaring that black people were not citizens, made several other rulings on slavery. It held that Congress did not have the power to abolish it in territories as it had done in the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which banned slavery in northern territories. It also declared that Mr. Scott, or any slave, could not become free by spending time in free territory because he was still his owner’s property.

Rather than settling the slavery debate, the decision increased the animosity between pro- and anti-slavery factions, further divided North and South, and contributed to the start of the Civil War four years later. The outrage over the decision strengthened the anti-slavery movement, which united under the burgeoning Republican Party. Abraham Lincoln rose to prominence arguing against slavery and attacking the Dred Scott decision.

The Democrats, meanwhile, became divided as moderates like Stephen A. Douglas — famous for his support of slavery being decided in new territories by popular sovereignty, a policy that was negated by the decision — objected to calls by more hardline pro-slavery advocates for a national slave code. The split party lost to Mr. Lincoln in the 1860 presidential election, which precipitated the secession of Southern states and the Civil War.

The lords could not take the away the serfs' right to farm and live on the manor.

The concept of "rights" comes out of the Enlightenment. In the Middle Ages, a person had "privileges" which could be given or revoked by a living king. As a result, a person could do what they were allowed to do. This is in fundamental disagreement with the idea of "rights" because a right exists regardless of what the current laws say.

As of 2008, dog fighting is a felony in all 50 states & the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico & the U.S. Virgin Islands. In most states, the possession of dogs for the purpose of fighting is also a felony offense. Being a spectator at a dog fight is illegal in all states except Montana & Hawaii. Each violation can result in up to three years in jail & a $250,000 fine.

The suffragists spoke out for the abolition of slavery and women's rights. Lucretia Mott, was a Garrisonian abolitionist and a charter member of the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society founded in 1833, and spoke out for all suffragists.

Auschwitz and Dachau have been preserved as museums. Some parts of Buchenwald are still standing and are a memorial site.

I don't think it is something you should randomly go out and do, but in some circumstances i would say so. for example, war. but don't think that if you ever hurt someone's child that their parent wouldn't come and hunt you down.

It is a document, statement or tenet containing an item or items that have been legally deemed as factual and lacking argument to the contrary.

example : you can't yell "fire!" in a crowded movie theatre when there isn't a fire .

1: if you have to pee and your teacheer wont let you then ask a minute later and if she still says no then just walk out becuz technically that's abuse so yeah slap her if u have to

2: Well, don't hit your teacher, you'll get arrested. Just walk out of the classroom when the need becomes unbearable. I (Elladine) never did this, but I was quite an exception and have had many kidney infections because of it. Here's why it's not good to allow other people to keep you from peeing: Urine is filled with poison that, if left in the blood, would have killed you, so Nature intended on it leaving your body in a timely fashion, roughly every 3 to 4 hours. If you need to go so badly that it hurts, try to disengage from whatever you are doing and go. If you make a regular habit of waiting - and too many people do - you will definitely eventually harm your urinary tract health. If, however, it is a rare occurrence that you need to hold it back, flex the muscles that are used to stop the flow of urine (pelvic floor muscles) and try to keep from moving around (you will feel like jumping around but that will only make it worse), don't let anything press against your lower abdomen, and try to stay as calm as you can. As soon as it's possible in any way to break away from the situation you're involved in, do so. If you do lose control and wet yourself, your bladder will only empty itself partway, so either get to a bathroom as soon as you can to complete emptying it and clean up, or, if your are in genuine pain, let the rest of it loose. Then avoid getting into that kind of situation again. And if you're in any kind of relationship where you are bullied or abused for needing to urinate, report the person who is bullying or abusing you and do whatever you can to get away from the relationship. That includes if you have a teacher who seems to enjoy torturing you that way.

Joan of Arc probably had the most unusual role. As a seventeen year old, illiterate, peasant girl, she commanded the French Army, a position unique in history. (As I think about it, the real miracle of Joan of Arc was not so much that she turned the tide of the war, many people have done things like that. The real miracle is that she got the job.)

Sabina von Steinbach was a stone mason, and when her father died, she took over his contract to complete Strasbourg Cathedral.

Christine de Pizan was a professional poet. She earned her living by publishing books of poetry and literary criticism.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the UN General Assembly on 10 December 1948, was the result of the experience of the Second World War.

Basic human right is right related to basic human needs like food,shelter,clothing, etc,. in psychology this term is related to recognition,attention,self-actualization, and feeling of belonging to a group. More basic to healthy human existence is the right to life, freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and freedom of association. The right to privacy, security, health and education are among my extend list of basic rights.
