Genocide
At the end of this past century, all over the world there was a reappearance genocide with tribalism and ethnic wars. There were worldwide demonstrations of ethnocentrism and xenophobia. No matter what takes place, groups of people stay and identify together. Kurds define themselves as Kurds. Armenians as Armenians, Bosniaks as Bosniaks, and Serbs as Serbs. Today, is this exactly what is occurring with the rise of the Muslim radical and the genocide of infidels. Hundreds of thousands are ready to sacrifice their lives to preserve their identity. In Africa, the situation continues to be bleak. Why does this occur?
From an anthropological standpoint, the question needs to be asked if whether the tendency toward genocide is genetic/innate. From a sociological standpoint, the question needs to be asked if these societal groups stay together because of this innate tendency. From a political standpoint, can it be explained that this innate tendency produces governments such as Stalin's and Hitler's that have a main purpose of eradicating other states and peoples that are different? Economics and loss of jobs only worsen the situation -- look at what is happening in Rwanda.
ANTHROPOLOGY
Is genocide innate? Look at primate behavior
What is the genetic/biological understanding of this?
Study the pre-historic and early historic tribes
SOCIOLOGY
How are societies formed? Is this innate behavior a precipitous to this formation?
Can societies be re-formed without genocide and bloodshed?
Is it true as Louis Dumont points out that man is incapable of recognizing hierarchy?
POLITICAL
Why have governments such as the Communists and Fascists murdered so many people?
Some say that democracy ends genocide. Is that true?
Does government further promote ethnocentrism and fear/hate of others?
This paper will question the theory that genocide is innate and, if so, what this means to mankind in general. Is there a way of eradicating this genetic tendency? How? If not, what can be done to continue as a whole human race or -- homo sapiens?
Crime Theories and Sociology Crime theories and sociological perspective Crime is an overt omission or action through which a person breaks the law, hence the action is punishable and the person may be convicted in the court of law for the said action.

Crimes Criminal Activities Crimes against public disorder In order to be convicted of disorderly conduct, according to the State of Massachusetts the defendant must have committed three specific things: 1) involved themselves in fighting, threatening, or violent behavior, or create a situation that is hazardous or physically offensive, 2) the defendants actions were most likely to affect the public, and 3) the defendant must have intended to cause public inconvenience, annoyance or alarm,

Crime Scene Investigations: Many crime scene investigations revolved around safeguarding the crime scenes, protecting physical evidence, and gathering and transferring the evidence for scientific evaluation. This process is based on the role that physical evidence plays in the overall investigation and determination of a suspected criminal activity. Notably, the ability for physical evidence to play its role in the overall investigation process is dependent on actions that are taken early enough
Crime Data Attorney General has the job of collecting, analyzing, and reporting statistical data, which will be able to give valid evaluations of crime and the criminal justice procedure to government and the people of the various states.

Crime On March 9th, 2013, two New York City police officers shot and killed a sixteen-year-old Kimani Gray, and claimed afterward that he had brandished a handgun at them after being told to show his hands (Goodman, 2013). More remarkable than the New York Police Department's killing of a young black male, however, was the outpouring of community grief and anger that followed the shooting. The following Monday, March 11th, saw
