This week we learned about how laws get made by the legislative branch of our government. One of the biggest laws that regularly gets made by Congress is the Federal Budget.. The Federal Budget is a law that spells out how the government will spend its money. This is a huge power that Congress has that is often called, “The Power of the Purse.” If the Congress doesn’t give the government money to do something in the Budget, the government won’t have the resources do what it might want to do.

The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Friday of each week. The original contribution must reference the text or auxiliary reading at least twice. Two additional responses are required after Friday of each week. The responses must be posted on separate days and must be at least 100 words in length. The responses are due by midnight (CST) Tuesday. Comments that are posted late on the last day of the week, are not quality responses will be graded down. Comments that are mere responses (I agree!) will also be graded down. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

Assignment Details

Understanding the core components of the criminal justice system, potential career paths as well as the professional skills needed are key for professionals entering or looking to progress in the criminal justice field. Having short-term and long-term career goals is crucial to your academic and professional success. One of the first steps to setting academic and career goals is identifying why you are interested in a criminal justice career and what you have done to understand the field.

For this Discussion Board, you will be required to view the Career Services presentation located here and then reflect on your interest in criminal justice and research on opportunities. Specifically, you should complete the following:

• Describe in detail why you want to be a criminal justice professional
• Discuss your criminal justice (or related) professional experience as of today, if any
• Research and elaborate on at least one (1) way to gain experience in the field if you have none, or to enhance experience you have already gained in the field

In your own words, post a response to the Discussion Board and comment (minimum 200 words each) on at least two other postings. You will be graded on the quality of your postings.

1). The creation of the Department of Homeland Security has affected the ability for administrator’s to reach their goals due to lack of technology and limited resources. 

2.) There are a lot of resources available to fight both terrorist and traditional criminals but, less funding is allocated for traditional criminals.

3). The burden to pay for investigating, apprehending, prosecuting, convicting, sentencing and incarcerating terrorist should be placed on the government because the government is responsible for making sure that the citizens in this country are protected against terrorist attacks.

4). Osama Bin Laden should have been taken alive to face America as well as its courts for the criminal acts that he had coerced others into committing against the citizens of America on 9/11.

5). The due process question in light of the creation of the Department of Homeland Security relates to the fifth and fourteenth amendments of the  U. S. Constitution as well as in various state constitutions, which says that no person shall be  “deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law (First Principles).

6). Due process should matter in the war against terrorism because of the fifth and fourteenth amendment of the U. S. Constitution and America should not go against the rules that the government has set in place for that is a violation of the law.  

According to Stojkovic, Kalinich, and Klofas (2015), the mission of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is to protect the  American people in their homeland.  Due to less funding being allocated to local criminal justice organization it is more difficult for administrators to meet their goals to prevent and fight crimes within their jurisdictions.  Sheriff’s across the country have been discussing their concerns about having limited funds to train, purchase equipment and hire more needed police officers for their organizations (Police Department, 2018). Although there are a lot of resources available to fight terrorist and traditional criminals the majority of funding is being allocated towards Homeland Security. One would have to understand that the history of policing goes back to working with the basic of using limited resources to work on the further development of community policing. The community is needed to assist in crime prevention.  The need to protect America’s borders and secure the government became a priority as of 911 and the central activity of the DHS requires dozens of directorates and components that involve thousands of personnel to perform its operations (2015). Osama Bin Laden should have been taken alive to face the consequences of terrorism against the American people.  He is entitled to due process because it is a law embedded within the U. S Constitution of America and it should not be violated no matter the crime.  Matthew 12:25 (NKJV) says, “But Jesus knew their thought and said to them: “Every Kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.” Citizens of America should continue to obey its government despite the dilemmas that it would encounter as it moves forward.

YOU ARE NOT TO GRADE, CRITIQUE, OR CRITICIZE THEIR WORK. ONLY ADD TO THE DISCUSSION/ CONVERSATION STAYING ON TOPIC.

First student,

 Having two teenagers both in high school, I know all too well the issues with social media, the internet and not being able to disconnect with their peers. To avoid issues that come with having a cell phone and constant access to the world in our home cell phones are put up once everyone is home and no one is allowed on them for the remainder of the evening. Neither one of my children have any type of social media as I do not feel they need it. I have allowed them to have Instagram at one point and my daughter summed it up very well the pressure of having to post was constant. So neither one of them have Facebook, Instagram, Snap Chat, Twitter nothing and they both say they don’t miss it nor do they even have a desire for it. I think that not allowing children constant assess to the world via cell phones, computers etc, would absolutely limit the amounts of cyberbullying. Another way to combat cyberbullying is parent educating their children on what you post on the internet is for the world to see and never goes away. The video and pictures that children post are at times excessively much, and open themselves up for becoming victims of cyberbullying like the example in the video clip. My number one solution for combating cyberbullying is no eliminate or limit the child’s ability to be on social media and the internet.  As for the case involving “Michelle Carter” and “Carter Roy III,” I most definitely believe Ms. Carter contributed the Mr. Roy’s death she did nothing to stop it in fact she sent multiple messages encouraging him to harm himself.  As for the schools responsibility for cyberbullying I do not believe they are responsible unless it is taking place on school grounds. A simple solution to this issue is parents need to be monitoring their child’s cell phone and computer content.

Second student to respond to,

 Cyberbullying has become a major issue in school. Kids are bullying other students to where students want to harm themselves at home. I do believe it is the school responsibility to ensure the students safety even off campus. Most bullying starts at school. If the teachers and any school staff notice the behavior I believe they should handle it to put a stop to it. Teachers can sit and talk with the student or mention the bullying to the student’s parent, make them aware of the situation. Teachers should even contact the bully’s parents so they are also aware what their child is doing. Follow up on the student to make sure they are okay. Some children are scare to reach out or wont reach out. They rather have someone come to them for help. 

Cyberbullying remind me of a show I watch on Netflix called “13 Reasons Why” an teen age girl in high school commits suicide in her home because of they way people have treated her. She was too scared to reach out and things were too much for her to bare. Before she committed suicide she made 13 tapes of the people that did wrong in her eyes. She made the tape so they could know who and what play apart of her death. 

Bullying is a very serious matter today. Kids don’t know any better or don’t know what it can lead to. In Cater’s case, I believe she didn’t mean to say things she said to her ex boyfriends death. I think she wanted to say things to make him mad and didn’t expect him to react on it. It was wrong of her to say those things to him. She should have help him seek help. She could have called the law enforcement or his family/ friends warn them that he’s having suicide thoughts and he may harm his self. I also believe she provoked him out of anger, but again it was wrong of her doing so.

when someone is experiencing bullying or suicide thoughts no matter what age its best to take it serious. its not good to ignore or provoke it. You don’t know exactly what’s going on in their end. Sometimes people just need a shoulder to lean on or someone to tell them that everything is going to be okay.
