The documentary link:
Short Response 1: In 1971, Philip Zimbardos The Stanford Prison Experiment demonstrated the power of the situation and the interaction between social interaction and social structure. After viewing the documentary, if you had been a guard, do you think you would have been more likely to go along with the other guards or would you have resisted or spoken up about treating the prisoners the way you would have wanted to be treated if the roles had been reversed? How could this experiment help someone to understand criminal behavior?
The response should be no less than 500 words in length and must reference specific parts of the documentary as support for your analysis. Failure to meet these requirements will result in a 0.

Obscenity Statutes
Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the Heins (2009) and Kinsley (2013) articles, and read Chapter 7 in the text.
Technological advancements associated with the Internet and global economics were paralleled by new avenues for marketing pornography along with a variety of obscene materials. No longer do people need to venture forth to visit adult bookstores or sex shops. Availability of the desired commodity is now as easy as accessing ones computing device. However, as access to sordid material is made decidedly easier, efforts to combat the dissemination of such material also becomes more fervent as pedophiles and human traffickers have turned to the Internet to target children and young people.
For your initial post, you must carefully review the required articles and examine at least two ways legal authorities have attempted to combat online pornography and obscenity. Your initial post must address the following points:
- Identify a minimum of two specific crimes that were the targets of law enforcement crime-fighting efforts.
- Examine the methods employed by creators of online pornography and obscenity to produce materials in a variety of media for easier access to members of the general public.
- Examine the strategies utilized by law enforcement to combat pornography and obscenity.
- Analyze the legal issues that arise from attempts by authorities to utilize community standards in their efforts to fight pornography and obscenity.
