Civics Assignment 4-17-13

1. The consequences are harsh for people who commit acts of terrorism, and can result in life in jail, death penalty and high security prisons. I believe the difference between a citizen and a non-citizen committing these acts are that a non-citizen is not required or promised due-process. Which means the penalty comes much quicker and can be much harsher. However, there are still rights reserved to those without citizen-ship and we cannot commit any cruel or unusual acts upon them.

Information that coordinates:

The dates, times, places, and amount of people running in the race all coordinates. In addition to this information, all the sites state that it was Boston's 117th marathon; which is the oldest and most prestigious race.

Information that is different:

In all four sites, it does not coordinate the amount of deaths; some say that more than three died, some say that 2 died and some say that exactly three died. Some of the sites state more than 100 people were injured, however a couple of sites stated that less than 100 and more than 130 people have been injured. Also, different people are being blamed for this tragedy on all the sights. A few mentioned the guy on the roof and others talk about someone putting the pressure cookers in the trash cans.
