Criminal History Should Not Be Fair Game For Red Flag Laws Opinion

The ethics of stripping rights from individuals after they’ve paid their debt to society deserve attention anywhere, but especially in the U.S., which houses 25 percent of the world’s prison population despite making up just five percent of the global population. Moreover, minority groups are disproportionately likely to find themselves confined in America’s prison system. According to the ACLU, one out of every three black males born today can expect to find himself in prison during his lifetime, as can one of every six Latino males—compared to just one of every 17 white male children....

Criminologist The Most Likely Motive

NEWSWEEK: You’ve studied mass shootings for more than 20 years. What’s the first thing you think of when a story like this starts unfolding? Jack Levin: I can talk in general terms about this and I’m probably going to be right. In almost every case the motive is revenge. Usually the killer is on a suicidal rampage—he sets out to take his own life but first he takes his revenge on all the people he believes to be responsible for his miseries....

Critics Skeptical Facebook S Plans For More Youth Friendly Features Will Be Effective

One of the new features will urge teen Instagram users to take a break from using the app after long periods of time, and another will “nudge” teens looking at content that could be harmful to their well-being to look at something else, the AP reported. Facebook will also launch new optional control features for parents of teens to supervise their kids’ online activities. Josh Golin, the executive director for the children and media marketing industry watchdog Fairplay, said that the parental supervision feature likely wouldn’t be effective because many teen users create secret accounts....

Crossing The Bar

Spike Lee IT IS, SURELY, NOT JUST INCIDENTAL TO ALL THAT JACKIE Robinson accomplished, to the history and the allegory alike, that he was of the color black. Someone else had been “The Brown Bomber.” Roger Kahn, who covered Robinson as a Dodger, remembers the shade as an “imperial black” and imagines that it must have been that of Shaka, the greatest Zulu warrior. Less lyrically, more to the point, in a recent book tribute, “Jackie Robinson: An Intimate Portrait” (Abrams), Roger Wilkins notes candidly that Robinson’s “skin was the color that, on others, caused even blacks to target them with scorn and ridicule....

Cubs Giving Top Prospect Baez Longer Look In Camp

I mean, Baez has only played 54 games above Single-A. He's at least gotta try out Triple-A first -- right?? Maybe not. The shortstop is still hanging around Cubs camp after the latest round of cuts Wednesday. That's partly because Starlin Castro is nursing a hamstring injury, and the Cubs could use this time to further evaluate their top prospect. It's also partly because Baez is tearing the cover off the ball this spring and has earned a longer look....

Culture Of Impunity

So it goes in Guatemala, which seems unable to confront its repressive past and join its neighbors in embracing democracy and economic reform. El Salvador started down a path of national reconciliation and reform a decade ago. Nicaragua launched a major battle against corruption last year. Yet Guatemala, Central America’s largest nation, remains mired in poverty and tormented by lawlessness and a culture of impunity. Sadly, few expect things to change after Guatemala’s presidential elections, which began with a first round of voting last Sunday....
