1 AnswerMusic & Music Players6 years agoFictional trial?
In a 2008 movie titled 'Lazarus Project" three men make a robbery. Police come and there is a shooting. Two thieves and one cop are killed. The third thief is sentenced to death and executed two years later.
My question: it is possible that the third thief has been sentenced to the death penalty even if he didn't touch any weapon? Even if they were in Texas?
PS
I live in Italy and I don't know almost anything about death penalty in the US
2 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agoI've just watched The Sixth Sense (1999) by M. Night Shyamalan.?
The delay of 15 years is due to the fact that I do not like movies with paranormal content, but after reading the great reviews on IMDb I decided to watch it, just last night.
And I loved it, especially the twist at the end of the film.
But there is one thing I really did not understand. If the child was frightened by the ghosts he saw, then how is it possible that when he meets for the first time the psychologist in the church then he should speak to him normally?
When the child sees dead people the temperature drops, but with the psychologist this does not happen.
Moreover, all the ghosts seen by the child retain traces of their violent death (blood, wounds, scars, ...), while the psychologist does not.
Did I miss something or are these licenses narrative of the director?

Please no Wolframalpha etc etc :)
This exercise was invented by me and I'd like you to "rate" it in order to possibly assign it in one of my classes. I am a high school teacher, my students are 14-16 years old. Math plays a central role in our kind of school (5 hours a week of math classes from 1st to 5th year)
Thank you for your attention :)

4 AnswersMathematics7 years agoE' possibile risolvere questo dilemma?
Avevo 18 anni quando ho rifiutato il servizio di leva, perchè la mia coscienza non mi consentiva di andare ad imparare come si ammazzano altre persone.
Era il 1976 e rischiai quasi Gaeta se non fosse stato per il rinvio per motivi di studi durante il quale fu emanata una norma che permetteva di sostituire il servizio militare con il servizio civile (18 mesi).
Sono passati tanti anni. La leva non è più obbligatoria, si possono arruolare anche le donne... è cambiato TUTTO
Tutto? Non proprio
Persino un prete o una suora si possono "spretare", io invece NO. Se voglio il porto d'armi perchè sono appassionato di tiro al bersaglio, al piattello o quant'altro
Semplicemente NON POSSO
La domanda è
Vi risulta che ci sia qualche percorso giuridico, di qualunque genere, per ottenere il porto d'armi anche se si è stati obiettori di coscienza 40 anni fa?
grazie per l'attenzione
6 AnswersEsercito7 years agoPerchè non eliminiamo i soldi?
Una legge speciale per combattere criminalità organizzata, rapine, corruzione, evasione fiscale e contributiva etc etc
Con la collaborazione delle banche, i commercianti avrebbero meno spese per POS, i correntisti spenderebbero meno perchè sarebbero di più
Certo, è chiaro che una normativa del genere deve prevedere fior di garanzie per l'accesso ai conti; è anche chiaro che chi delinque cercherebbe il modo di continuare a farlo... ma perlomeno lo Stato gli metterebbe qualche bastoncino tra le ruote :)
La mia domanda è questa: esistono motivi legali, finanziari, economici etc che impediscono un provvedimento di questo tipo?
grazie per l'attenzione
