Resolved that the full implementation of curfew hours in La Trinidad.

A. Are you in favor of the above proposition?
As I concerned, I was in favor of the full implementation of curfew hours in La Trinidad for everybody’s safety. If that could be happen there will be no minors loitering around public places, there will be no drinkers making unnecessary disturbance for the other public establishment like in the grocery, coffee shops, and others. By this full implementation this could help to our politicians making our places peaceful, peers group could be avoided like gangster, sorority, and fraternity groups.
For the curfew hours of minors will also effective if that could be fully implemented. By this no person below 18 years old will be in their home before night hours. They will focus on their study, making their assignment at home. Instead of wasting their time in drinking liquors, playing gambling, playing billiards and computer games. Because they will not be allowing to stand by and all public places between 7:00 pm to 5:00 am. Juvenile crimes will be avoided.
Fully implementation of curfew could help the public enforcer to make peace and order to the community. Crimes will be decreasing because if there are no minors and other people who were got drunk there will be the possibility that no one will commit a crime.
And I was in favor of the fully implementation of curfew hours in the reason that parents/ guardian will be having a peace in mind that their children are safe from any vices that could they in countered.
B. What are the advantages/disadvantages of the full implementation of the above proposition?

Youth is a major and growing problem, often involving both drugs and violence. By imposing curfew hours it can help to solve this problem. It is advantageous, because it keeps minor or others people in the street, and therefore out of trouble, and prevent from congregating in the hours of

    Curfew Law in Arizona

    Many cities in the state of Arizona have put a curfew on all kids. Kids under the age of 16 cannot be out unsupervised between 10 pm and 5 am. Kids 16-18 cannot be out during 12 am to 5 am. Our country is a free country and allows parents to control their own kids how they choose. Who is to tell a parent how to raise their kid? The government should not be allowed to bully parents and give them rules for their own kids. These curfews are not allowing parents to control their kids to their liking. Many people feel curfews hurt teens rights, are unconstitutional and ineffective. Studies show that curfew do not lower the crimes that teenagers commit. Curfews hamper the teen’s right for free speech by not letting them congregate at certain hours. They go against what America was built for - religious, political and economic freedom for all. . The 1st amendment states the right of the people peaceably to assemble. This amendment is broken by having a curfew. Many people believe curfews stop the crime rate in juveniles. However if a teenager is going to break laws what is to stop them from breaking the curfew law along with it? A curfew does nothing but restrict law-abiding citizens. The curfew law is the easiest law for teens to break, on purpose or on accident. Sometimes things such as car accidents happen, causing traffic. This later causes a teen to be late for curfew, and are caught and charged as juveniles for something that was not even their fault. Curfews are just setting teens up to be charged as juvenile delinquents. Anything that can be done during curfew can be done after and before curfew. This law is just keeping teens away for a few hours until curfew is up and they go do drugs, drink, etc… Thus there is no point to a curfew. When a child is at home during curfew they will become bored and try and figure out ways to be entertained. Some may include breaking curfew or getting high or drunk. The more teens are bored…

    Over the years, the world has seen a rapidly increasing number of teen involvement in drunk and reckless driving cases, specifically from the time periods 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. A 12 a.m. curfew on weekends and a 10 p.m. curfew on weekdays would help to protect teens and others on the roads late at night from getting into troublesome or dangerous situations. In my town of Leesburg, Virginia, a 12 a.m. to 4 a.m. curfew is placed on anyone under the age of 18 on all days of the week. The curfew is used to minimize the amount of inexperienced teens on the road during hours where driving can be difficult due to things like fatigue and/or the influence of illegal substances. Many teens don't see the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol late at night or driving late at night at…

    Curfews over the years have lowered teenage crime rates by 23 percent around the world. Some people believe that Curfews do not lower the crime rates in our generation of teens. “Studies in Tulsa, Oklahoma showed that arrests rose despite the curfew law.” That might be true, but that is only in one place. Curfew laws still lower the amount of arrests in teens. Greasers are believed to be hoodlums in their society without a curfew. “Greasers are almost like hoods; we steal things and drive old souped-up cars and hold up gas stations and have a gang fight every once in awhile.” If the Greasers and Socs had a curfew, maybe things that happened late at night wouldn’t have happened.…

    If the opportunity to make some difference in the community presents itself, would you not have the desire to? Particularly when it concerns the wellbeing of not only adolescents, but all citizens in the community. Even if you do not have kids, all of us can relate because we were all kids once. The idea that kids under the age of eighteen ought to be free to roam the streets after 10 p.m. is faulty as it fails to protect everyone. A curfew for adolescents will bring them valuable boundaries which can transfer into other areas of their lives. Some may have no boundaries or discipline at home and at least they will learn to respect this…

    Setting curfews on teens is meaningless and a waste of money. Teens are looked at as the age group that causes the most trouble and society often targets them when it comes to matters for crime. People think setting curfews will solve the problem of teen violence, but all it does is patch it up and leaves the problem hanging. In the text, lines 23 to 25 reads, "In Pittsburg, Pa., the number of juveniles murdered in 1994 was 47% greater than the number murdered in 1980." This increase in juvenile murders shows that curfews, in fact, are not helping with teen crimes. Again in the text, lines 40 and 41 reads, "statistics show that most juvenile crimes occur between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m." This fact totally goes against the idea of teen curfews. According to the text, teen curfews are usually between 11 p.m. or midnight and dawn. If…

    For every parent there is nothing worse than hearing the phone ring late at night while your teenager isn't home. There is a sense of panic that most of the time is just a false alarm from paternal or maternal instincts. However, a fraction of those parents have their fears actualized. This can be achieved through the implementation of curfew laws. Although teenagers may believe curfew laws will inhibit their freedoms, there will be greater safety because their will be more supervision during earlier hours of the night, less sleep deprivation among teenagers and other drivers, as well as greater visibility for young drivers and pedestrians. Young people are the most targeted groups for criminals in society. At night, criminals…

    To many teens and young adults, curfew laws have negatively affected their lives and their viewpoints of the criminal justice system. In the essay “Curfew Laws: Demonizing Teens,” written by Nora Gold, Gold illustrates why curfew laws are bad in the U.S. and all they do is punish the teens that do not need to be punished. The main points that Gold gives to help back up her theory that curfew laws are bad are that curfews on teens take away some of their civil rights, curfews don’t actually reduce the crimes committed by teens, politicians propose curfew laws so it seems like they are being tough on crime, and also that there are other ways that will help reduce the crime among teens. One of which being after school…

    In conclusion, having a curfew for teens will be beneficial to the teen themselves. Teens are not adults and are not fully capable of making the best decisions. Keeping them away from committing crimes keeps their life on track. Young adults are getting charged as adults now, with a charge like that it could mess their life up. If we want to protect our teens from violence, keep them away from what will bring violence. The last and most important is to teach them to be responsible. Some are almost ready to be in college and no one is going to be there to tell them no or to be on time. Those are my three…
