Italian-Americans And Organized Crime: Stereotype
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. At no time can New York's Italian Mafia defy the legitimacy of its association with violence, inasmuch as news report after news report finds its members involved in one kind of killing spree or another. There is little support in disputing that primary to its objective as a self-imposed social overseer, the New York Italian Mafia showcases the violence and power that renders its members fully able to take possession of whatever they want any way they can obtain it. One might readily surmise that written into their clandestine constitution are the words that give them the power to obstruct justice, play by their own rules and literally attend to life in any manner they see fit. That ordinary Italian-Americans are automatically branded with this stereotype when, in fact, they have nothing to do with organized crime speaks volumes regarding the powerful image their violent counterparts have erected.

James Q. Wilson's "Just Take Away Their Guns" - Critical Analysis
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Firm in his stance, James Q. Wilson argues in no uncertain terms how the prevalence of gun-related crime is not associated with the weapon but instead the socioeconomic and cultural factors of a given community. This is precisely the message Wilson (1994) sends to his readers in an article entitled "Just Take Away Their Guns" in which he vilifies the very suggestion that placing legal restrictions upon the lawful purchase of guns will ultimately make a tremendous impact upon illegal use of guns. Inasmuch as law-abiding citizens take the proper steps to obtain firearms and criminals do not, removing access to law-abiding citizens merely puts them at a greater disadvantage when coming up against an offender who will always have a way to find a gun. No additional sources cited.
