¶ … Ron should have locked his car doors. However, whoever took the new slacks he left in his car knew or should have known that it is wrong to steal, even if it is easy to do so. Ron should have the right to live his life without his property being stolen, and being careless (leaving the door unlocked) does not give someone else a right to take his things. While he should have been more careful, he really does not have any official responsibility for the theft. The thief bears 100% of the responsibility for the theft of the slacks, since he (or she) made the conscious choice to steal something that did not belong to him (or her). Even if a person leaves something valuable just sitting out, no one should take that item (Wallace, 2004). One could argue that Ron should "know better" or that he was very careless in leaving his car door unlocked, but it is not realistic to believe that someone "deserves it" when something is stolen from that person. Stealing is wrong. Bobby, at 12 years old, is old enough to be responsible and listen to his parents. He...
Taking money from his mother's drawer was definitely wrong, and he certainly knew he should not have taken the money. He also chose bad friends in Andy and Joey, because they beat him up.

However, if Bobby would have stayed home like he was supposed to he would not have been in a position to get beat up by the other boys. In this case, Bobby has 50% of the blame for not staying home, and the other boys have 50% of the blame because it was wrong to beat up Bobby and take his money.Responsible Journalism How the Press Covers the Most Important Events of Our Existence The media of our society is a complex conglomerate.

By doing so, they will safeguard the lives of the Miami inhabitants, as well as that of the millions of tourists to the region. What the local government would in fact do is to redistribute the funds collected in the form of taxes and redistribute them to the citizens by protecting them in case of emergencies.

Christian Moral Philosophy, H. Richard Niebuhr takes a probing look at the characteristics of a moral life. So many times, people judge others as good or bad without examining the underlying characteristics of those judgments. However, Niebuhr rejects that idea. Instead, he goes beyond vague notions of good and bad and suggests that ethical behavior is inextricably intertwined with the concept of responsibility. Responsibility towards others is what guides
