Probably because they are more honest than the competition.

Women, in government? Let's face it unless a government has a 50-50 split of men and women in office, this question can't really be answered ,as the major players in the major departments have the most say, and that will forever be the case.

There are many reasons for this, many of them formed by the gender roles imposed by society:\n\no Males of most every species are more aggressive\no Men physically stronger, and thus are better at committing crimes relying on strength\no Men are more likely to engage in activities (contact sports, martial arts, hunting) and use tools (guns, knives, baseball bats) that provide skills useful to criminals\no Men are more often in positions of power, and have more opportunities to commit crimes\no Men are more often expected to be providers, and thus more likely to turn to crime to fulfill that role\no Men are more competitive, and more likely to turn to crime to get an edge\no Men are expected to be sexually assertive, women passive.  The assertive role offers more opportunity for crime\no Males of many species attract mates by demonstrating there prowess, often in reckless and violent ways\no Male sexual deviancy is more likely to lead to crime than female sexual deviancy.\no More male role models, both real and fictional, are criminals\n\nNote, these aren't excuses or justifications for criminal activity, nor are they an endorsement for sexism or gender stereotypes.  They are merely observations.

No.  When it comes to females in the criminal justice system there is an overwhelming presumption of innocence, whereas men are always guilty unless they can prove they didn't do it.\n\nWomen almost always receive more lenient sentencing then men, and in the rare cases they go to jail the terms are shorter and the conditions are better.  Probation sentences are shorter as is assignments to community service.  The woman's prisons deal more with rehabilitation and are more successful then men's prison's, although this can be partially attributed to the lower population in woman's facilities.

no! not if you are male and have to register for the draft, but not females ,even though they have every other PRIVILEGE! that a male has! and if you are rich and a dope head or pervert or other criminal then you have the best defense money can buy and you get to go to a rehab facility and not prison! [ that includes both liberal Hollywood and Conservative politicians! and the rich that support them!]

It debases the honours system for those who really earn them, and it's not just a title - it's a seat in parliament where they can vote on laws. This is a very important privilege and not one to be sold. As someone who respected the institution of the peerage I don't like seeing undeserving non-entities buy their way into it.\n\nParties do need funding, and under the law have to disclose the amount people give them. These men offered to make donations and the party instead asked for long-term loans at low interest rates to keep it secret. Why does Labour want to avoid public scrutiny when they were the ones who brought in the new law? \n\nIt is not a waste of police time. Cynicism about politics is a problem, affecting the health of democracy, and if those who have introduced this level of venality into politics are exposed and punished it will show people that the system works, testify to the independence of the police, and scare politicians away from doing something similar.

Women were granted the right both to vote and to stand for election in 1944 \n\nIn 1851, the legislative assembly passed the Falloux Law which required communities with more than eight hundred inhabitants to establish a girl's school, but stipulated clerical staffing and a domestically-oriented curriculum and provided no state funding.

What happens in most jurisdictions is that the district attorney, elected by the people, keeps on getting re-elected.  Therefore, the DA can stay in office for many, many years.  Ordinarily the DA will play the politics card to show he or she is tough on crime, get the media to jump on the bandwagon and keep getting reelected.

The date for such trials is set months ago.\nThe judges have to give appropriate time to both teams of lawers.\nThe judges have to consider holidays etc.\nthe judges have to account for the time they will need to write the verdict.\nHence it is possible that government can run the trial in such a way and in such a timely manner that the verdict concides with a particular event.

Because there are people who constantly badger the gov't to change the laws according to their personal agendas.  ie: the gay agenda, etc.

Law- to provide a acceptable outcome to the majority. It can not sit well with the minority. \n\nEither way some people lose.
