better describe the building and how the field looks, because i know from experience the building and how it looks and most indoor soccer fields appear. Express more in detail how competitive it is because i felt like you repeated yourself with the same sentences throughout the essay. talking about the portuguese culture was a good addition to describing the culture. the main focus of this essay is to show the competiviness of how the portuguese plays futebol and how respectful they are towards one another. If you just add more details and get rid of the repeativeness in those few sentences your essay will turn out great.

In this article Going after abusers, their are 5 different people who have similar and different views on domestic violence and how we as a society should handle them. Ayonna Johnson views on domestic violence was different then the others. She wants domestic violence to be handle more seriously then how it is treated now.  She says the state should apply more resources to help protect the welfare of domestic violence victims. Yolanda Jimenez also agrees with Ayonna that the government should also help the victims feel more comfortable and safe after the tragedy they went through. Victims if they feel the support from others and protection they are more likely to have the strength and courage to face their attacker in an court room. She does though believe in mandatory arrests which some others do also agree with. I believe mandatory arrests should be applied but the victim should be allowed whether they would like to testify or not. Donna Coker does not believe in mandatory arrests because it creates more hostility towards the woman who are being abused. She believes that the woman should make the right decision because they have to think about their family, marriage, and themselves. Charlie Stoops views on domestic violence is that it should be teated as a mental health issue. He does believe in mandatory prosecution thought because that in his mind is the only way you can find the abuser guilty.  Public health issue on this matter would help the decrease on contiuning domestic abuse, but I feel the victim should still have her say in every type of sitsuation that is happening. Overall i feel the victim should have the say on the final decision, but the abuser should go to classes to help with their issue on abusing someone.

Ride Along

 

I refer to him as lieutenant Williams, but out of the military uniform he is best known as State Trooper Williams. Being a state trooper for the state of Massachusetts is a very prestigious accomplishment, as it is the toughest academy in the country to graduate from. It takes years to even getting looked at to join then even more long drawn out years to get accepted into the academy and start this tough journey. State trooper Williams accomplished that goal while being in command of a very well known, proud and accomplished artillery unit in the United States Army, the 186th field artillery. I am fortunate enough to be able to have a night full of experiences riding along a very great leader in the civilian world and also in the military world.

Lieutenant Williams is how I refer to him as, he granted me the pleasure on the night of March 9th, 2017 to ride along in his typical 2013 Ford Police interceptor utility vehicle. You know the blue, greyish SUV that is usually in the fast lane riding right up on you till you switch lanes or the car hiding in the woods ready to hand out speeding tickets  like candy. I was only allowed to patrol in the cruiser for three hours during 7pm and 10pm. His shifts are generally 8 hours long and went from 4pm till midnight patrolling the south eastern highways of massachusetts.

You would think that because it is only a thursday that the law abiding citizens would not be out and about everywhere. Little did i know is that they never stop just like a clock with a battery that never dies it just keeps on clicking. We started our night off pulling someone over for speeding doing a 93 MPH in a 65 MPH zone. It was just a middle aged woman maybe in late twenties, blonde curly hair, and blue eyes. She was driving a chocolate colored mercedes benz g-wagon the life of the super rich. She was already having a panic attack as soon as we walked up to her rolled down window. She started claiming her defense right away saying she did not know how fast she was going or what the posted speed limit was on this highway. I rolled my eyes because everyone knows that in the state of Massachusetts, the speed limit is ever over 65 MPH. Lieutenant Williams told her to take a deep breath and relax for a second, she did just as he told her to do. He then proceeded to tell her that he was going to just giver her a warning since she did not have any tickets and also that she needs to slow down for everyone else’s safety. She thanked him a million times and then some more, as we walked back to his cruiser I asked him why he let her get away with speeding? He told me that some people need a scare tactic so they will not repeat the same mistake more than once. I agreed with what he said because he’s been doing this for awhile, but in my mind I felt like giver her the ticket so she will most definitely never speed again.

Couple hours past as we waited in a speed trap, the state troopers call it. Hidden in the woods blended in by the trees and darkness of the colden night as we waited for the right moment to get our next lawbreaker. An hour past, we got someone going over the speed limit just a smidge over and lieutenant Williams wanted to give me one last encounter before I had to go on home. We pulled over a black Nissan Maxima 08 for doing a 84 MPH in a 65 MPH zone. The experienced trooper informed me that Nissan Maximas are the typical vehicles that drug traffickers use to transport narcotics throughout America’s highway system. We walked up to a hispanic looking man with tattoos going all up his neck and glasses on hiding his eyes. His plates were from Rhode Island which is not unusual since that state was not far from where we were. When lieutenant Williams was telling him what he did wrong, the man did not speak or even look in our direction at all he just stared straight ahead. To me this seem he either was hiding something or just did not like any law officials since lately the media has been downgrading all cops as bad people with the recent uproar on cops shooting innocent citizens. Not all cops are bad in my eyes, but a lot of them do base judgement on your race or ethnicity which to me is very wrong seeing the world we live in and how our country came up with immigrants migrating here. Lieutenant Williams noticed right away the same thing and asked him a series of questions on what he was doing and heading for the night. The man had a deep accent but answered all the questions quickly and precisely. A strong aroma of marijuana started to catch the attention of my nose from the backseat of his car. As we both walked back to the cruiser with the man’s license I informed Williams on the smell coming from the backseat. Being that his had this encounter probably several times on duty, he responded with a grin and said yeah I know. He checked the computer for any warrants or tickets under the driver’s name and outstandingly nothing came up. We returned to the car handed the man his license and asked about the scent we noticed coming from the back of his car. The man finally spoke and said it was just some weed he was smoking without any nervousness in his voice. Lieutenant Williams asked the man to come out of his car as he searched his vehicle, the man did not resist and opened the door and stood on the grass. As Williams searched the man’s vehicle as i thought to myself what did this guy had or what was he was hiding? All these thoughts were running wild in my head as I waited impatiently to find out the verdict. Williams came back towards empty handed after spending a good 45 minutes searching thoroughly in the car. The man surprisingly did not complain at all or seem aggravated from the process that was standard procedure that Williams had to follow.  Lieutenant Williams told me the man was all set we was not going to charge with anything seeing how marijuana is basically legal and he did not have anything else or showed any type or resistance during the whole process. He gave the man his license and told him to have a good rest of his evening.

I was so astonished that nothing came about that traffic stop that we conducted. I was so lost in profiling the man because of his tattoos and the way he condoned himself that I was positive something illegal was going to happen.
