Crime in America

Go to the following website:

http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/crime.html (I realize the home page that it is housed on, and please do not read into the use of this resource as an endorsement of the organization)

Read the page. At the bottom, the author offers up 7 "ways to fight crime" .

Using your knowledge of Deviance, Socialization, Social control, conformity, etc. choose what you think are the 3 BEST ideas to combat the rise in crime in America. Explain your answers using complete sentences, sociological terms and analysis, and sound reasoning.

Were you "bad" today?

Your task for this post is to list the ways in which you were considered "deviant" by the governing cultural norms of behavior. While doing so, you must describe the context, which norms/folkway/more you violated, and how you knew you were deviant (what sanctions were expressed?)

Be specific. This post is worth 10 points.
