Law, Terrorism, And Social Movements: The Tension Between Politics And Security In Germany's Anti-Terrorism Legislation, Shawn Boyne
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The article explores Germany's approach to combating terrorism from the late 1960s to the 1980s, emphasizing the interplay between security measures and civil liberties. It argues that political power struggles, rather than the terrorist threat itself, often drove antiterrorism legislation. The analysis highlights how laws such as the Berufsverbot and criminal code revisions were used to suppress dissent, leading to public backlash and eventual reforms. In contrast to the U.S., which framed its post-9/11 response as war, Germany maintained judicial oversight and avoided suspending constitutional rights. Public opinion played a pivotal role in shaping these policies, ultimately fostering a stronger …
Hearing The Danger Of An Armed Felon- Allowing For A Detention Hearing Under The Bail Reform Act For Those Who Unlawfully Possess Firearms, Matthew S. Miner
Hearing The Danger Of An Armed Felon- Allowing For A Detention Hearing Under The Bail Reform Act For Those Who Unlawfully Possess Firearms, Matthew S. Miner
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Article advocates an interpretation of the Bail Reform Act that affords courts the ability to hold detention hearings in gun crime cases to evaluate defendants' potential danger to the community. According to an interpretation advanced by some courts, gun possession offenses do not constitute "crimes of violence" within the meaning of the Act and therefore those charged with such crimes, even ifth ey have a prior felony conviction, are not subject to pre-trial detention. Arguing against this approach, the Article looks to the Bail Reform Act, the relevant federal case law, and the alarming statistics concerning the growing use …

Breed Specific Legislation: Unfair Prejudice And Ineffective Policy, Devin Burstein
Breed Specific Legislation: Unfair Prejudice And Ineffective Policy, Devin Burstein
Animal Law Review
This comment examines breed specific legislation—the unfortunate attempt of legislatures throughout the country to address the valid concern over vicious dog attacks by prohibiting or strictly regulating entire breeds, most often pitbulls. To prevent the tragedies that can occur when a dog attacks a human, legislation must take aim at the heart of the problem, the human owners that allow, through negligence or intentional mistreatment and training, these attacks to occur.

United States V. Bean: Shoveling After The Elephant?, Pannal A. Sanders
United States V. Bean: Shoveling After The Elephant?, Pannal A. Sanders
ExpressO
Thomas Bean’s felony conviction in Mexico implicated provisions of federal law that preclude certain persons, including specified felons, from owning or trading in firearms and ammunition which have been transported in interstate commerce. 18 USC Sec. 922. Affected persons can seek relief from the federal firearms disability by invoking procedures established in 18 USC Sec. 925(c) under the Dept of Treasury, Director of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (“ATF”). Beginning in 1992, Congress has enacted provisions annually in the ATF’s appropriations laws that ban it from investigating or acting upon Sec. 925(c) applications from individuals. Section 925(c) contains provisions for judicial …

Homeland Security, Pesticide Regulation And Common Household Chemicals: Are We Adequately Protecting All Our Sources, Leticia M. Diaz
Faculty Scholarship
In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, legislators, business owners, consumers and everyday citizens, all with a view of how to protect our interests, voiced their opinions on how to improve national security with patriotic zest.

Chemical professionals were cognizant of the importance of site security even prior to the September 11th terrorist attacks. With respect to the risk of terrorist attacks using pesticides or other chemical agents, EPA …
