Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
"Jan hears that the city council is considering a youth curfew. She worries that the curfew might interfere with her afterschool job. She does not think it is fair for her to get in trouble simply by walking home from work! She decides to go to a town hall meeting. During the meeting, she hears two different viewpoints about the issue: Speaker 1: People often call the police when kids are out after dark. The curfew will prevent that. It also gives parents a good reason to tell their children to come home at a certain time. Curfews are a good prevention tool, keeping at-risk kids from becoming victims or criminals. Speaker 2: The law would make anyone who looks under 18 without an ID after dark into a criminal. That's not the answer; that's a police state. Confining innocent youth to house arrest does not make young people more responsible. Jan decides to do some more research on the curfew. What topics should she research if she wanted to support the statements of Speaker 2? "
Answer:
- She should look at the crime statistics in her city and the average age of the individuals who committed these crimes.
- She can research efficient methods of preventing young people from committing crimes.
- She can research how keeping young people confined has failed to reduce crime.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jan believes Speaker 2 has a correct view of the teen curfew. She wants to support speaker number 2 and so she will need valid arguments that are confirmed through correct, efficient and accurate research that involves the relationship between crime and young people. For that, Jan will need to do some research like:
- She should look at the crime statistics in her city and the average age of the individuals who committed these crimes.
- She can research efficient methods of preventing young people from committing crimes.
- She can research how keeping young people confined has failed to reduce crime.
