Essay:  Assignment Instructions

Overview

This essay requires you to demonstrate an understanding of jurisdiction that is consistent with a biblical worldview. The civil government does not have authority to govern over all the affairs of man. It is critical that we understand that the government does not have jurisdiction to punish everything that is “wrong.” In other words, all sins are not crimes. For example, James Madison believed that religious liberty exists because the government does not have the authority to punish citizens for their beliefs. This principle of limited jurisdiction is consistent with a biblical worldview because it recognizes that God has instituted government, and He has given it authority to accomplish a particular, and limited mission on the earth, which is to punish those who do evil and reward those who do good (See Romans 13:1-4). 

Instructions

In response to a rise in violence, the state of Wisconsin passes a law that enhances the penalty for any offense committed against a victim where the crime is committed “because of hatred for the victim’s race, sex, or religion.” Taking into consideration that hating your brother is prohibited in both the Old and New Testaments, explain whether this “hate crimes” enhancement is a proper exercise of the civil government’s jurisdiction according to the biblical worldview discussed in the course materials. Fully explain your position.

You will write a 3–5-page (double spaced) research-based paper in current Bluebook format that fully analyzes the essay prompt. In your essay, you must include citations to at least 3 scholarly sources in addition to the course textbook and the Bible. Your citations should be placed in footnotes and you do not need a reference or bibliography page. You also do not need a cover page.

Article I. Bill of Rights

Section 16. Free exercise of religion; no establishment of religion

That religion or the duty which we owe to our Creator, and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence. And, therefore, all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion. According to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other. No man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place, or ministry whatsoever, nor shall be enforced, restrained, molested, or burthened in his body or goods, nor shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief. But all men shall be free to profess and by argument to maintain their opinions in matters of religion, and the same shall in nowise diminish, enlarge, or affect their civil capacities.

And the General Assembly shall not prescribe any religious test whatever, or confer any peculiar privileges or advantages on any sect or denomination, or pass any law requiring or authorizing any religious society, or the people of any district within this Commonwealth, to levy on themselves or others, any tax for the erection or repair of any house of public worship, or for the support of any church or ministry; but it shall be left free to every person to select his religious instructor, and to make for his support such private contract as he shall please.

doctrine of sovereign immunity

PAPER#1(KJ):

It was not until recent years that state and local governments could be sued due to the doctrine of sovereign immunity. The doctrine of sovereign immunity stated that a governing body of its representatives could not be sued. Because it made the laws in the first place (Schmalleger and Smykla, 2020). Even while confined in prison, inmates still have civil rights.

Federal and state prisoners can file lawsuits with the federal courts stating that their civil rights have been violated by correction officials (Schmalleger and Smykla, 2020). However, not all cases brought to court by inmates are a violation against their rights and at the end of the Prisoners’ Rights Era. Courts had become less sympathetic to prisoners’ claims, as many were frivolous lawsuits (Schmalleger and Smykla, 2020). In order to protect correctional officers changes were made at the state and federal level which have slowed the number of case prisoners have brought against officers (Schmalleger and Smykla, 2020).

doctrine of sovereign immunity

The Civil Rights of Institutionalized Persons Act was changed in 1980. Which forces a prisoner to use all means necessary at the state level before a writ of habeas corpus can be filed at the state level (Schmalleger and Smykla, 2020). It can be challenging to sue government officials for allege misconduct and one hurdle that must overcome in order to do so is the qualified immunity doctrine that shields the government official from lawsuits unless the defendant’s conduct violated a right constitutional, or the right was clearly established at the time the misconduct took place (Lass, 2018).

PAPER#2(PR):

Classmates,

Sovereign immunity is an English law based on a common law principle that the King could not do any wrongdoing. And this law applies to state and federal governments (“Sovereign Immunity,” n. d.). Therefore, sovereign immunity says that the federal and state government cannot be sued without their permission (“Sovereign Immunity,” n. d.). The reasoning behind this law was that if the individuals who made these laws should not be compelled by it (Schmalleger and Smykla, 2020). The federal and state governments can waive their right to sovereign immunity through the Federal Tort Claims Act, which put aside federal immunity for certain wrong claims (“Sovereign Immunity,” n. d.). The Westfall Act says that a feral worker cannot be prosecuted while employed. Some states have complicated laws that have prohibited immunity through governmental action.

common derogatory terms referring to people suffering from drug addiction

Must pick 1 out of the 4 movies listed

APA Format, 12 Font

3 page reaction paper to the movie you choose not including cover page or reference page.

Requiem for a Dream. Recommended by the College of Psychiatric and Neurological Pharmacists (CPNP)  “

Junkies”. “Addicts”. “Crack heads”. These are all common derogatory terms referring to people suffering from drug addiction. Requiem for a Dream depicts four different kinds of drug addiction each leading different outcomes for the characters. Sara Goldfarb (Ellen Burstyn) is addicted to amphetamines,.Marion Silver (Jennifer Connelly), Tyrone Love (Marlone Wayans), and Harry Goldfarb (Jared Leto) are all addicted to heroin. The lives of these characters are all drastically changed as they progress further into their drug addiction. Requiem for a Dream is not like a typical drug abuse film in which the characters have successfully overcome their addiction or are on a path to recovery. Instead, it shows how drug abuse completely engulfs an individual to the point where they are unrecognizable.

OTHER OPTIONS

Basketball Diaries

Basketball Diaries: Though basketball is its central conceit.  is not a sports film—at least not in the conventional sense. Based on jock-poet-rock star Jim Carroll’s celebrated account of his brutal descent into heroin abuse as a teenager in Manhattan. the film has no big-game finale drawing the story forward. It’s a tough, intense, wrenching picture about drugs and growing up and surviving. Driven by a fierce, skinless performance by its star, Leonardo DiCaprio.

Drugstore Cowboy:  Portraits of drug addiction tend to wallow in spiraling miseries. like a hurricane that gathers strength and grows more destructive as it reaches landfall. Bob Hughes (Matt Dillon) is the leader of a “family” of drug addicts consisting of his wife, Dianne (Kelly Lynch), and another couple who feed their habit by robbing drug stores as they travel across the country. After a tragedy befalls a member of his group. Bob decides he must leave his dysfunctional clan and go straight. Parting ways with his junkie past proves more difficult than expected. when Bob is stalked by an old acquaintance looking to score drugs at any price.

Candy: The sight of young people going down the drain is never pleasant, particularly when there are needles jabbed in their arms. It isn’t just that watching anyone probe his or her veins with a sharp tends to be pretty gross. it’s also that the ritual of heroin addiction. This film features striking performances from Heath Ledger and Geoffrey Rush. Mr. Ledger plays Dan, a low-key charmer with a dewily pretty girlfriend. Candy (Abbie Cornish), and a growing appetite for heroin.

intercession and thanksgiving

■ 1 Timothy 2:1-6 — I urge, then, first of all, that petitions,

prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all

people—for kings and all those in authority, that we may

live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.

This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all

people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the

truth. For there is one God and one mediator between

God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave

himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been

witnessed to at the proper time.

Biblical Foundation

 

 

■ Matthew 7:1-12 — “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in

the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the

measure you use, it will be measured to you … So in everything, do

to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the

Law and the Prophets … “Therefore everyone who hears these

words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who

built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose,

and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall,

because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears

these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a

foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the

streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it

fell with a great crash.” When Jesus had finished saying these things,

the crowds were amazed at his teaching, because he taught as one

who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.

■ Deuteronomy 1:9-18 — At that time I said to you, “You are too heavy a burden for me to carry alone. The Lord your God has increased your

numbers so that today you are as numerous as the stars in the sky. May the

Lord, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times and bless

you as he has promised! But how can I bear your problems and your

burdens and your disputes all by myself? Choose some wise, understanding

and respected men from each of your tribes, and I will set them over you.”

You answered me, “What you propose to do is good.” So I took the leading

men of your tribes, wise and respected men, and appointed them to have

authority over you—as commanders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and

of tens and as tribal officials. And I charged your judges at that time, “Hear

the disputes between your people and judge fairly, whether the case is

between two Israelites or between an Israelite and a foreigner residing

among you. Do not show partiality in judging; hear both small and great

alike. Do not be afraid of anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any

case too hard for you, and I will hear it.” And at that time I told you

everything you were to do.

What is law?

Generally:

Legislation from Parliament

From bodies to whom the power has been delegated

Decisions from senior courts

The “law” can be classified in many different ways:

Common law and statutory law

Examine what specific areas law covers

Historical division of law into principles of common law and equity

Geographical limits: Common law system vs civil law system

Government has 3 distinct areas of power:

Separation of powers doctrine: A concept inherited from England

 

Based on the idea that Government is divided into 3 separate and theoretically independent organs:

The legislature (Parliament), which makes the laws;

The executive (The Crown, the Ministry & the public service). Which administers the laws; and

The judicature (The judges and the courts). Which interprets, applies and enforces the laws

The legislature

Australia’s Commonwealth Constitution

Gives the Commonwealth government both concurrent and exclusive legislative powers-

Concurrent: Those legislative powers shared with the states

Exclusive: Legislative powers that are only to be utilised by the Commonwealth Parliament

 

If there are powers not listed in the Commonwealth Constitution these may be regarded as residuaL. And are therefore the domain of the State legislatures

Information Sharing

Program Case Study

Information Sharing

 

The Internet is an invaluable resource for community safety, because it provides public access to information on justice-related issues within communities and throughout the United States. Many law enforcement practitioners have embraced the Internet and made information widely available, allowing access to considerable justice-related data for their jurisdictions.

 

Currently, there are many websites available to the law enforcement community that provide data and information of interest to criminal justice practitioners. Many in the law enforcement community, however, may not be aware of the availability of these resources. Further, to search through the vast amount of data available, law enforcement practitioners have to spend considerable time accessing and conducting searches on individual sites. Access to all of the databases through a single access point would greatly benefit the law enforcement community and allow for the most efficient search functionality and data retrieval.

 

The creation of a law enforcement information sharing portal to provide a single access point would benefit the entire criminal justice community by allowing for more efficiency, effectiveness, and cost savings. The ability of law enforcement to query multiple resources with a common term from a unified interface will deliver a more comprehensive view regarding the search criteria.

   Information Sharing

The Dru Sjodin National Sex Offender Public Website (NSOPW) is an example of the success that a single access point for searching multiple resources can provide. Prior to the NSOPW, many states had their own sex offender registry systems. However, to conduct a comprehensive search of registered sex offenders, it was necessary to conduct searches on the individual websites of the respective states and territories.

 

 

In 2005, when NSOPW was launched, the public had real-time access to information on sex offender registries throughout the United States and select territories. NSOPW provides an efficient and effective resource to identify registered sex offenders nationwide through a single search from any computer with Internet access. The NSOPW has proven to be an extremely successful and well-used resource since its launch. The success of the NSOPW demonstrates the value of providing a single access point for searching databases to law enforcement practitioners and the public alike.

 

The Internet has revolutionized the accessibility of information, and in a relatively short amount of time, it has evolved exponentially. Advances in technology, which make vital information available via the Internet, have provided the law enforcement community with a cost-effective tool. Using available technology to integrate existing resources will provide law enforcement professionals with expanded access to information that will aid in current investigations and could help prevent future criminal activity.

Therapy for Patients With Schizophrenia

According to the Schizophrenia and Related Disorders Alliance of America, approximately 3.5 million people in the United States are diagnosed with schizophrenia (n.d.). And it is one of the leading causes of disability. In practice, patients may present with delusions, hallucinations, disorganized thinking, disorganized or abnormal motor behavior. As well as other negative symptoms that can be disabling for these individuals. Not only are these symptoms one of the most challenging symptom clusters you will encounter. Many are associated with other disorders, such as depression, bipolar disorder, and disorders on the schizophrenia spectrum. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, you must understand the underlying neurobiology of these symptoms to select appropriate therapies and improve outcomes for patients.

This week, as you examine antipsychotic therapies, you explore the assessment and treatment of patients with psychosis and schizophrenia. You also consider ethical and legal implications of these therapies.

Discussion: Treatment for a Patient With a Common Condition

Insomnia is one of the most common medical conditions you will encounter as a PNP. Insomnia is a common symptom of many mental illnesses, including anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, and ADHD (Abbott, 2016). Various studies have demonstrated the bidirectional relationship between insomnia and mental illness. In fact, about 50% of adults with insomnia have a mental health problem, while up to 90% of adults with depression experience sleep problems (Abbott, 2016). Due to the interconnected psychopathology, it is important that you, as the PNP, understand the importance of the effects some psychopharmacologic treatments may have on a patient’s mental health illness and their sleep patterns. Therefore, it is important that you understand and reflect on the evidence-based research in developing treatment plans to recommend proper sleep practices to your patients as well as recommend appropriate psychopharmacologic treatments for optimal health and well-being.
