Book excerpt: In the world of Justice Wing, heroes and villains have contended with one another for decades spanning four eras. Now, with the heroes in nadir, Super-archer Broadhead, one of the first prosahuman heroes (meaning he possesses no special powers) struggles to maintain his edge with a failing body. This struggle is compounded by a well deserved reputation for being a butthole (though usually not using the word 'butt') and for an incident that cost him his partnership with his sidekick and the respect of his peers many years before. And yet, through it all he continued to both fight to protect the innocent (admittedly usually while insulting them) and to continue to improve both his skills and his gear, under the basic ethos he always lived by: Plan your projects, create and test a prototype, produce the final result, then continually perfect the design with new models. Now, ten years after a worldwide disaster caused by a mad god's desperate attempt to destroy not just the world but the entire multiverse, Broadhead keeps himself held together with medication and black market super science. But, with a young super-archer named Darkhood coming up, continued estrangements, haunted by his past, and finally benched for his own safety and health, Broadhead finds himself plunging into increasingly vivid memories spanning all four eras -- the Emergence of the heroes, their Halcyon Days, the horrifying Apocalypse Agenda, and now Justice Wing In Nadir, reliving his worst mistakes. Seeking validation, he desperately watches a television program that tests and debunks super-feats in hopes they will prove Darkhood's greatest arrow-shot was impossible... only to have the one person he never thought would support Darkhood show up. After a life of pushing prosahuman heroes to train and prepare for all situations instead of grandstanding and making it up as they go along, Broadhead's last remaining legacy seems ready to crumble... along with his very life. Content Warning: This story contains adult language, allusions to and discussions of verbal and emotional abuse, and (brief and entirely undetailed) references to physical abuse of a child.
Download or read book Right Wing Justice written by Herman Schwartz and published by Nation Books. This book was released on 2004-04-28 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Right Wing Justice raises the alarm about the creeping conservative campaign to "pack" America's courts with judges more identified with their ideological affiliation than their skill or regard for the Constitution. The consequence is that the rule of law is taking a terrific beating from the Supreme Court. Who can forget the debacle of Election 2000? But the consequences of the campaign go far deeper than that, impinging on the daily lives of ordinary Americans who are at the receiving end of attempts to overturn or erode Supreme Court rulings on abortion, school prayer, civil rights, criminal justice, and economic regulation. As the author shows, the problem does not end at the Supreme Court—it filters down to the lowers courts and circuits. Right Wing Justice gives an alarming account of how this has come to pass over the last two decades, how conservative activists hatched this strategy in the 1960s only to see it really come of age during the Reagan revolution and the successive Republican administrations. Combining a scholar's sense of history with the immediacy of eyewitness testimony, Right Wing Justice will come not only as a sobering reading to many concerned Americans—but also as a call to wake-up.

Download or read book Right Wing Resurgence written by Daryl Johnson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2008 there were 149 militia groups in the United States. In 2009, that number more than tripled to 512, and now there are nearly 600. In Right-Wing Resurgence, author Daryl Johnson offers a detailed account of the growth of right-wing extremism and militias in the United States and the ever-increasing threat they pose. The author is an acknowledged expert in this area and has been an intelligence analyst working for several federal agencies for nearly 20 years. The book is also a first-hand, insider's account of the DHS Right-Wing Extremism report from the person who wrote it. It is a truthful depiction of the facts, circumstances, and events leading up to the leak of this official intelligence assessment. The leak and its aftermath have had an adverse effect on homeland security. Because of its alleged mishandling of the situation, the Department's reputation has declined in the intelligence and law enforcement communities and the analytical integrity of the Office of Intelligence and Analysis was undermined. Most importantly, the nation's security has been compromised during a critical time when a significant domestic terrorist threat is growing. This book is replete with case studies and interviews with leaders which reveal their agendas, how they recruit, and how they operate around the country. It presents a comprehensive account of an ever-growing security concern at a time when this threat is only beginning to be realized, and is still largely ignored in many circles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Criminal Justice in Hong Kong provides a much-needed overview of the criminal justice system in Hong Kong. It is designed to be used as a text for students studying this subject as part of a wider course in criminal justice, police studies, law or social work, and for practitioners working in Hong Kong in the police, prisons, probation, voluntary agencies and other criminal justice personnel.

Download or read book William Sheppard Cromwell s Law Reformer written by Nancy L. Matthews and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-07-08 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents a full account of Sheppard's employment under Oliver Cromwell's Protectorate as well as an examination of his family background and education, his religious commitment to John Owen's party of Independents and his legal philosophy. An appraisal of all Sheppard's legal works, including those written during the Civil War and the Restoration period, illustrates the overlapping concerns with law reform, religion and politics in his generation. Sheppard had impressively consistent goals for the reform of English law and his prescient proposals anticipate the reforms ultimately adopted in the nineteenth century, culminating in the Judicature Acts of 1875-8. Dr Matthews examines the relative importance of Sheppard's books to his generation and to legal literature in general. The study provides a full bibliography of Sheppard's legal and religious works and an appendix of the sources Sheppard used in the composition of his books on the law.
