“One night in an ancient kingdom, a wicked witch poisons the town’s well. The king comes to know of it and refrains from drinking from the poisoned well. All the citizens however, drink and become insane. The next day the insane citizens gather at the town square accusing the king of having gone mad and clamor for a new king. Left with the option of keeping his mind and losing his monarchy, that night, the king slips in and drinks from the well. The next day the citizens cheer the insane king as excellent.”

Arms trade
The arms trade is a major global industry that has significant negative consequences. The top five arms exporting countries are the United States, Russia, Germany, France, and the UK. While some argue arms exports provide security benefits and economic profits, they often fuel conflicts, corruption, human rights abuses and divert funding from critical social services. The arms trade disproportionately impacts the most vulnerable communities and harms post-conflict recovery efforts. Many lives could be improved if nations redirected arms spending to meet basic human needs like water, instead of prioritizing the arms industry. Campaign groups advocate reducing and ultimately abolishing the international arms trade to promote global peace and justice.

Colombians flee war without end MIS 2
Colombia has been plagued by widespread political violence and internal conflict for decades, driving over half a million Colombians from their homes each year. Both guerrilla and paramilitary groups fight for control of territory, often targeting civilians, and have emptied entire villages. As a result, nearly one in ten Colombians has been internally displaced or has fled the country to escape the violence. There are few signs the conflict will end soon, so the problem of displacement is expected to continue growing and have broader regional and international impacts.

Here are some notes down below to help!
Police Corruption
In this chapter, we learned that deviance is a concern of modern policing.
The concept of police deviance includes both individual occupational deviance and organizational deviance. At times entire police organizations may be deviant. This occurs when the deviance becomes acceptable practice throughout the entire police organization. This means that entire units or sections can be involved in acts of brutality or corruption. It is often impossible in deviant organizations for individual members, however well-intentioned and honorable, to resist the “culture” of deviance that exist around him. Police misconduct falls under the umbrella of police deviance.
All police misconduct involves acts of wrongdoing that are unacceptable by federal and state laws, departmental policies, and procedures. Acts of police misconduct can be unethical or immoral, but yet not be criminal in nature. Society expects police officers to be people of character who will obey the laws they swear to enforce and not be law violators. One element of police deviance, which allows police officers to be involved in police misconduct is the “Code of Silence.” This code requires that police officers look the other way when they observe their colleagues involved in acts of misconduct.
Often, police misconduct occurs in police agencies when mangers refuse to recognize the existence of police involved in deviant behavior, or when they fail to take the appropriate steps to eliminate the deviance. Police deviance can include police misconduct such as accepting free meals, kickbacks, petty thievery, shakedowns, bribes, and providing protection for illegal activities.
Other deviant behavior by police officers includes corruption which, in some cities, can be a serious problem. Various forms of corruption exist such as taking money from drug dealers and gamblers to look the other way rather than enforce the law that police officers swear to enforce. Another form of police deviance is the “use of excessive force” by police officers—often referred to as “police brutality.” It is difficult to know how widespread and how often incidents of police brutality occur.
However, it does occur and the media periodically brings this to our attention. The “use of excessive force” is closely associated with “deadly force.” Deadly force occurs when a police officer commits an act that either causes the death of someone or had the potential of causing the death of someone. Both police and society can make serious efforts to eliminate and control deviant behavior by police officers. This oc.
