Jan hears that the city council is considering a youth curfew. she worries that the curfew might interfere with her afterschool job. she does not think it is fair for her to get in trouble simply by walking home from work! she decides to go to a town hall meeting. during the meeting, she hears two different viewpoints about the issue: speaker 1: people often call the police when kids are out after dark. the curfew will prevent that. it also gives parents a good reason to tell their children to come home at a certain time. curfews are a good prevention tool, keeping at-risk kids from becoming victims or criminals. speaker 2: the law would make anyone who looks under 18 without an id after dark into a criminal. that's not the answer; that's a police state. confining innocent youth to house arrest does not make young people more responsible. jan decides to do some more research on the curfew. what topics should she research if she wanted to support the statements of speaker 2?
