Per your request, the following breakdown of murders by male Floridians during the period 2001 through 2011 is provided in Table 1 and depicted graphically in Figure 1 below.

Recapitulation of Murder Statistics for the State of Florida: Male -- 2001 through 2011
Crime in Florida: Uniform Crime Reports (2013)
The murder rate in the State of Florida for the period 2001 through 2011 equals 626 murders per year. As can be seen from the statistics in Table 1 and depicted graphically in Figure 2 above, there was a spike in the murder rate beginning in 2005 that peaked in 2008 which has since declined to lower than the average murder rate per year (i.e., 590 murders by Floridian males in 2011). Overall, the State of Florida has the 17th highest murder rate in the country (Nationwide murder rates, 2013). Although the numbers of murders by male Floridians has declined somewhat since its peak in 2008, more of the murders committed in 2011 involved firearms compared to years past (Crime in Florida, 2013).
What remains unclear from the raw statistics is just how many of the male perpetrators were gang members. These statistics are maintained by the State of Florida security threat group task force, though, which reports gang-related criminal activities in Florida have increased every single year since 1990 (Jordan, 2009). According to Jordan, "The crimes committed have become more and more violent. For example, the number of gang members convicted of capital murder increased 22.44% from 2006 to 2008" (p. 29).

Enforcement of Power in Organizations Managing Organisations - Critically analyse how the enforcement of power may or may not lead to organisational resistance, conflict and decline Enforcement of power in organizations has led to conflicts in many organizations, due to employee resistance to power (Fiske and Depret, 1996).

Cultural relativism contends that no one culture possesses a more correct value system than any other. "There is no one standard set of morals," Sullivan (2006) argues, which one can use as a base to: "objectively judge all cultures, so comparing morality between cultures -- which retain independent and distinct histories and influences -- is basically futile" (¶ 9). As the movement is rooted in the world community's response to
These statistics deny that a great number of older men are taking advantage of young girls and making them pregnant. Eight per cent is hardly an epidemic. If the problem is occurring only 8% of the time, then statutory rape laws should be enforced in about 8% of the cases. The problem is how to sift through all the cases and find the right ones to prosecute, leaving the remaining
Enforcement of European Community Law Legal systems are basically just useless if they are not efficiently enforced. On that note, they have normally two principal devices through which to make sure that these norms are enforced. Firstly, they may make the choice to trust on community enforcement by the state or an organ (Craig, 1998). On the other hand, trusting purely on public enforcement can be incompetent. Even though the
