I need help with my Criminal Law assignment.

A bomb is exploded in a crowded shopping mall, killing 50 people and injuring hundreds of others…. A bomb is exploded in a crowded shopping mall, killing 50 people and injuring hundreds of others. A written message is received at the local police station claiming that the attack was perpetrated by Foreigners for a New United States (FNUS), an established organization that has as its purpose the “destruction of the government of the United States and its citizens who support their government.” Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, working with local police, traced the message to Terry , a leader of FNUS. Terry  was charged, convicted, and sentenced pursuant to the following federal statute:

Terrorism

i. Terrorist organization: The Attorney General, upon credible evidence that an organization has as a purpose to bring harm to the United States or its citizens, may declare such organization a terrorist organization by publishing notice of such declaration in the Federal Register.

ii. Any individual who is a member of a terrorist organization, as declared by the Attorney General in the previous section of this law, and who causes harm to person or property with the intent of (i) intimidating or coercing a civilian population; (ii) influencing the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) affecting the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination or kidnapping is guilty of terrorism, a felony.

iii. The government of the United States shall have exclusive jurisdiction to prosecute individuals for all crimes arising from acts of terrorism, as defined by this law herein.

After Terry  conviction, the state where the bombing took place requested that Terry be turned over to it, where he was to be tried for murder and other offenses. The United States refused, citing section iii of the above law. Further, the United States Attorney filed a motion to have the case removed to federal court, along with an accompanying motion to dismiss the criminal action, asserting that section iii prohibits the state prosecution. Discuss the federalism issue, making the best case for both the state and federal governments. Conclude by explaining who should prevail and why.

I need help creating a thesis and an outline on Wedding Traditions from Various Destinations. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. Wedding customs vary widely across the many religions practiced by the people of America. Approximately 86 percent of all Americans profess to follow Christian traditions (Mordecai, 1999: 82). Despite this, there are several other cultures represented within this country’s population. These include Judaism, Buddhism, New Age, and Nondenominational followers. Even within the Christian ranks, there remains a wide variety of practices and traditions. This can be seen when one compares Greek Orthodox weddings to Quaker ceremonies for example. “Peoples who tended to retain traditions were the Hindus, Jews, Muslims, Mennonites, and Quakers. Marriage customs of succeeding generations were increasingly influenced by the Christian majority for whom Western-style traditions were perpetuated by mass media” (Mordecai, 1999: 82). Some of these religious ceremonies have remained relatively unchanged throughout the centuries. Other ceremonies have changed quite significantly or emerged as an altogether new form of celebration. As times changed, wedding ceremonies did not always include religious actions. Sometimes, they are secular events held within the courts and offices of the Justice of the Peace. In addition, changing laws have required changed approaches to a greater or lesser degree even within the churches. For example, greater women’s rights won in the early 1900s forced significant change. They required church ceremonies to begin recognizing the ability of the young woman to make her own decisions. This was because she became less the property of her family and husband and more of an autonomous being (“Women’s History in America”, 1995).

Mainstream Christian weddings in America took their cues and traditions from those established in England. When the Puritans first arrived on American soil in the 1600s, they carried with them their own ideas.&nbsp.
