Legal Issues

Airplane accidents
Who is responsible? Should families of victims be entitled to compensation?
Bullying laws
Should the state or federal government put laws into place to prevent bullying?
Civil disobedience
Is breaking the law for a cause justifiable?
Civil unions
If civil couples have the same rights/privileges as married people, why get married?
Holocaust
Should denial of the Holocaust be illegal?
Infidelity
In some states, it is illegal to cheat on a spouse. Should we prosecute cheaters? Is a law that’s not enforced really a law?
Juvenile offenders
Should juvenile offenders be tried and punished as adults?
Organ sale
Should we legalize the sale of human organs?
Parents
Should parents be held responsible when their children break laws?
Sex offenders
Once they leave prison, are laws about where they may live and be employed unfair?
Statutory rape
Recently, a 17-year-old boy was sentenced to 10 years in prison for having consensual oral sex with a 15-year-old girl. Are statutory rape laws patronizing to girls and discriminatory to boys?
