Ahmed Ali
This case was settled seven years after the fact. The case is about a refuge that’s locked up because of a battery charge he had. It was announced that he had a mental disorder. This basically meant he had mental problems. He was trying to make a life for himself and people in society were knocking him down due to his religion. He had a rough life growing up in Somalia with his family because of the wars in his country. Ahmed seen unforeseeable things that he couldn’t even speak about. Ahmed was seeking medication and doing his time in jail for his battery charge in Wisconsin and trying to get out of jail and just be an American citizen. This was hard to do because he was moved to the immigrant detention where he was deported where he was held there for 3 years. The government was not abiding by the law they had Ahmed Ali in a non suitable living situation. They wouldn’t review the detention and it took more than five years for his case to be carefully reviewed. They found that the government was violating the international law and his detention was arbitrary. The government didn’t even pay attention to his rights for they didn’t seem to consider him worthy of that. Religion should not be who a person is it should be what they a person believes. They have the right to feel that we all have rights and we can make our own decisions and we all have freedom of speech even if you’re from another country. Ahmed Ali was just trying to be somebody that could possibly makeup for the misfortunes he had in the past. The conclusion id you shouldn’t judge a book by the cover especially when it’s religion.

Facts of the case
Granted case on asylum rights settled
(Lawyers fought for a refuge by the name of Ahmed Ali which was from Somalia who came to the United States eighty years ago. He was convicted Wisconsin of substantial battery and as a result was ordered to be deported in the year 2002.) google Scotus blog on supreme court cases. In my opinion, Ahmed Ali shouldn’t have been deported in the first place, just because he was a refuge. The case shouldn’t have taken so long to settle why should it take 7 years? when it should of take at the most 3 to 4 years. In this case it talks about how Ahmed Ali was diagnosed with post –diagnostic disorder due to his flashbacks that he had when he was growing up in Somalia. He saw some horrible things such as some of his family was killed in front of him. In 1999 Ahmed and his sister moved to Wisconsin where they were trying to start a life for their selves. They attended school and got a job at a retail store. In the year two thousand Ahmed started receiving medical treatment for his disorder. He started to get into altercations quite a bit and that led to his arrest. Ahmed got into arguments with the inn mates regarding his religion and once this occurred the immigration and naturalization service they moved him to an immigration detention. This was so inappropriate on their end why would they do such a thing? To me that is not going to help the situation. This to me is considered racism.

Property rights
WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS AS A PROPERTY OWNER?
You have the right to ask the renter for references and do a credit check. You also can do anything to the apt or house as the landlord of the property. The landlord has the right to collect the rent of the tenant which is agreed with the tenant and the landlord. The landlord also has the right to have collection of the possession of the property at the end of the lease. The tenant is responsible for any damages on the property. The property owner is in charge of all documents that should be in writing for the lease. The landlord must make sure that all things are fixed and paid for before the tenant moves in. If the tenant does something unlawful to the apt or house the landlord has the right to take action. The landlord also has the right to make changes to lease as long as they notify the tenant beforehand. It must be in writing though that would be breaking the law depending what state you’re in. The landlord also may chose who they rent to. The landlord must take full responsibility when it comes to the lease not in writing and it’s verbal. If you have a verbal lease and you don’t have it in writing then nothing is set in stone. The landlord can’t change locks of tenants place unless a written letter is dropped on their door. The letter must be I writing and signed by the landlord. The owner has the right to call any references that were given on the application. Then owner can enter the appt or house as long as the tenant is informed by mail. The landlord also can raise the rent of the lease when it’s up. It’s their decision as a property owner.

greed is good week 6
My comment on Wall Street and the economic crisis that we go through. Years ago our country had economic struggles and still today we face the same. Wall Street is known for our businesses succeeding and failing at the same time. The main purpose of the economy deflating is the poor manager incompetence that was used. A year later we are still trying to clean up our society and mess that has taken place. The decisions that were being used on the business side of things were poor judgment in so many ways. If you’re giving a president in the company a raise make sure that your financials for the year match and you’re not spending the company’s revenue. So many companies thought that they wouldn’t get caught on the little things like getting over paid and then when they did they acted in a state of shock. When companies like Citibank, Wachovia, and the general motors’ were faced with the bailout some of the managers were still using their status and showing it off. The stocks seem to be going back up a little because people are starting to spend a little more. I think that these big corporations are getting paid more than they should. I think that they are shady in so many ways and can’t be trusted with our money. The United States takes a slap in the face so much for corporation’s mistakes. When owning your own business you need a business plan and strategies to go along with it. You should always have a budget and an accountant that handles all the financial statements and transactions that come through. I like what they say in the movie about greed because it’s so true in so many ways. Michael Douglas was genius in the movie he always knew what to say and he knew how to say it.

Bong hits for Jesus response
I believe in freedom of speech and we should have rights as citizens of the United States. I also believe in the amendments, and our constitutional rights and what laws that should abide by. I think that school was only trying to protect their students, and the schools safety environment. In my opinion I feel that Fredrick’s banner was inappropriate I didn’t really like what it said that can really offend some people. The court said that it all took place during school hours perhaps if took place after school it might not have been such a big deal. When they suspended Fredrick so abruptly it was a bad judgment constitutionally because they weren’t thinking of his rights. I do agree that the banner could have been promoting illegal drug abuse just by the words that are being used. When you’re in high school you should be concentrated on school, and learning, and not promoting drugs at school. In do understand why the school got so upset with the students and their behavior. I understand that In this case the school and the students had their own opinion of what they thought was right and wrong. Freedom of speech is used a lot in this case because it plays a big role in the event. I do think that freedom of speech is a little over rated Individuals try to use it in everyday life a little too much. Perhaps if the banner didn’t talk about drugs or religion it might have been ok. If it said you have the right to vote for what you believe in so the choice is yours that might have been more suitable. Perhaps the teachers could also be at fault for not supervising the kids more and seeing the banners before entered the school premises.
