the conflict thoery

The conflict theory explains the reason that people try and become better then the other people because they want to be in power and control the others that are not in power but they many people that are poor will come together and will fight the few that are rich so that they can be into power so they can be in control of the rich with their power. The people that have the wealth want to keep it and not give up any of their “power” that they have over the others that are poor and the poor want to become the few so they can have power and you can see it in everyday life, the big wealthy people stepping on the little poor people so they can make more and more money and have more “power”. What is the function of social class structure? The function of the social class puts people in groups that are defined by how much money they make in a year that  they can live on What conflict naturally exists between social class structures? The people that are at the bottom are trying to get to the top of the class and the people on top don’t want them to make it to their level because they think they are better. What symbols do we associate with the various social class structures in our society? Money and poverty high class suits and old ragged clothes. How would you change the social class structure? Break it into more groups so there are more places that people fit.

heroin blog

The movie that we had just watched was about the dangers of heroin and uppers in the movie at first I thought that the three were going to sell their heroin that they got and go out and make something of themselves with the money that they got. I thought that the mom was going to get a little bit thinner and go and be on the T.V like she wanted, I also thought that the two kids that were dating would be able to start up there business and his girlfriend could be a fashion designer and everything would be all good. When the movie started to go south because of the peoples drug addiction I knew that how I thought It would go wasn't going to happen because the movie was trying so show that everything might be alright right away but soon your addiction will be too much for you to handle and you will be forced to make yourself do things that you don't want to do to get the money for your drugs. The movie was a good movie because it tries to teach people the bad about doing drugs and something’s that might happen if you take drugs because everything might be good at first but after some time of taking drugs everything might go bad and things could not turn out the way that you expected them to turn out. The boy that had his arm cut off I don’t think he was thinking to himself oh when I stick myself with this needle I am going to lose my arm, No he probably wasn’t thinking that way. This movie goes to show you that things might not always turn out the way you want them to be even if they start out good at first they could always go south in the end. I thought this movie was going to turn out to be a happy story about 4 people doing drugs but no it showed that when you shoot up heroin don’t always poke yourself in the same stop change spots every time you shoot up.

Heroin drugs blog

In the video that we had just watch it showed how people that use the drug heroin have to keep taking the drug otherwise they get "Dope sick" and if they cant shoot up they can get very sick from it because the heroin messes with the brain and the brain needs it after words other wise it can get sick. The video also showed that in Canada there is a place were people can go to shoot up in a place that is clean with clean needles, so they don't risk getting an infection or any HIVs from sharing needles with others. I think that having a place set up for people to use there heroin is smart but is also very dumb because they are encoring the users to keep using and not stop instead of having a place where people can shoot up there should be a place that helps the uses get clean.

gaming

I think that the news article is right because when people have and Xbox or a PlayStation or a gaming system of any kind they are less likely to go out and hurt someone, because say there boss made them really mad at work so instead of coming home and beating his/ her wife or husband they can sit down turn on the T.V and game system and go beat up some person on a game, or steal a car and run from the cops, or get a new high score. Gaming can also give someone the chance to talk with their friends that are online about how his or her boss is not a nice person. Video games help reduce violence because the people that were out on the streets running around like hooligans are now sitting at home and running around and being a hooligans on their games.

Unleaded gas has also reduces the violent crime rate because now there is no lead in gas, because lead increase the risk of brain defects and witch makes people less likely to get jobs and know how to do something’s that many people would know or have common sense like how robbing a bank is bad or hurting someone is bad. Also I think that when the city torn down the big apartments made a drop in crime because all of the criminals where not all in one place and it was very easy to just brake into some other persons house.
