Revised Paragraphs C and D

C) Online chat rooms have become a great source of communication. By utilizing a chat room you can talk with lots of different people all at once. These people can be from all over the world, or your next-door neighbor. A lot of classes around campus have the chat rooms set up privately for only the students registered in that class. Chat rooms are very effective resources because they have even allowed me to converse with other members of my Biology class to discuss the lectures and labs. The chat room is a good resource to use inside and outside of the classroom.

D) In Los Angeles (L.A.) the use of dogs in the police force has been rejected, and the use of weapons is preferred. During the Watts riots, which took place in L.A., officers employed guns as means of protection; some looters and perpetrators were killed (Knutson and Revering 64). Clearly dogs are a more suitable and effective alternative to weapons. The purpose of canines in the police force is to provide an alternative to excessive and deadly force. Although suspects have claimed to be badly bitten, these cases are extremely rare compared to the many documented good deeds and rescues involving human lives performed by police canines. It has been concluded by the 6th Circuit Court that, "since deaths are rare in police dog cases, deploying dogs cannot be condemned as deadly force" (Savage para. 12).
