Question by TonTon07: Can someone help me find a credible source on violence in society?
I have an essay due tomorrow for Sociology:social problems. I have to find an article that relates to a social problem. We could choose these topics: Health, Drug abuse, behaviors: Deviant behavior, crime, violence behavior. I was thinking about writing on Mexico’s current drug cartel violence( all the drug cartel murders) but I cant find anything. I need a long article where I can use a good amount of information. Please help me. Any other ideas?
