Essential Question: What role do drugs play in violence?       Unsurprisingly, a lot of serial killers were/ are avid drug users. Drugs make a lot of people violent, but for people with murderous desires it seems to send them over the edge and increase delusions. There is a huge drug problem that seems to be taking over the world at this point. It is a huge problem and is getting worse daily. In reading Serial Killers and Mass Murderers by Niguel Cawthorne, I learned that one of the most infamous killers named Charles Manson used LSD that enhanced his already demented mind, and Jeffrey Dahmer drank heavily and may have used other drugs. I began to wonder if drugs and alcohol had  a link to serial killers and their behaviors. I did some research and found that drug and alcohol abuse does in fact make people more violent. It increases violent behavior by 72 percent among men and 50 percent among women. The violent behavior was only increased in ...

Serial Killers and Mass Murderers by Niguel Cawthorne Finished book: 327 pages The beginning of the book, Serial Killers and Mass Murderers, the author raises thought-provoking questions on the serious topic of murder. He argues that we are never safe from vicious killers, no matter what. His bluntness drew me in, so I chose a quote that I found very compelling. "Then again we are all potential victims.

Freedom: My Book of Firsts by Jaycee Dugard   I love the quote I chose because it I relate to it very much. Animals always make me feel better, and when I see them it reminds me that this world is not all bad. While people may be hard to bond with sometimes, you can always find a friend in an animal.   "I am so lucky to have so many animal friends in my life. They come in so many shapes and sizes and each has their own personality. What they have in common though, is their ability make me feel wanted and loved each in their own way" (Dugard 245). I have personal experience with therapy animals and have grown up with surrounded by them. I had a golden retriever as a child that I would dress up in tutus, snuggle with and play with everyday. Her name was Daisy, and she was my first real best friend. Now I have a cocker spaniel and a German shepherd, and my family is getting another German shepherd puppy soon. My cocker spaniel, Patch, is ten and follows me every...
