The two bad listening practices I use most often would be Pseudo-listening and Interrupting. A way of lessening Pseudo-listening wold be to periodically repeat what the speaking is saying or ask questions. This keeps you engaged in the conversation and keeps the mind from wondering about other things. Makingeye contact is another way to help prevent this bad practice be sure to blink; otherwise you’re sure to go into another world.
As an Interrupter I am either bored with the conversation because it’s taking too long to get to the point I don’t want to forget what I have to say or I’m mad and just want to say my piece. A few ways of overcoming this barrier is to practice patience pause ponder and pray. Write down what you you have to say and speak when it’s your turn.
You should use effective vocal delivery in a professional context so that you will be heard understood and respected as a professional. Failure to do so could cause you to lose youraudience’s attention. If the speed in which you speak is too fast and you’re not pausing briefly between yourideas you may not be understood or misunderstood. If there’s no fluctuation in your pitch yourvoice becomes monotone. This is a sure way to bore your audience and your message or ideas maynot be received in the way in which you intended.You might also be banned by management from speaking in a professional arena especially if you’re speaking to existing or potential clients.

Maddy Juror B-29 personally believed that race was not an issue because she didnt walk by color in George Zimmermans case but that she was forcefully included in Zimmermans case because she was the only minority. In her heart she knew George was guilty of second-degree murder because legally he showed extreme negligence. But after nine long hard hours the jurors wasnt presented with enough proper elements of the crime or evidence according to Floridas law to prove Zimmerman intentionally decided to kill Trayvon so that they couldnt convict him. She felt he got away with murder and would have to answer to God. After the publics reaction to the verdict Maddy said it was hard for her to sleep and eat but the public needed to understand the choices they were given. She felt she let a lot of people down especially Trayvon Martins parents and owed them an apology particularly his mother Sybrina Fulton because she was a mother too. For a judge to interpret the law he or she must have access to all the evidence and control how things unfold during the trial so he or she can ensure the arguments and evidence presented are factual to apply the law and instruct the jury properly on self-defense of the aggressor.

I do believe that Attorney General Eric Holder should have challenged the voting laws in the state of Texas. Mr. Holder points out that Texas has had a history of discriminating against racial minorities. I feel that his challenge of the voting laws will do more good than it will harm. With the person who sleeps in the White House being elected in this past election there is sure to be many things that change for minorities and protecting our right to vote is of the utmost importance.Attorney General Eric Holder has stated that they will do everything they can to ensure that there are no laws that permit discrimination when voting.
In trying to regulate the voting laws in Texas the next election could prove to have some struggles. Currently citizens are required to pay for certain documentation in order to vote. This to me makes no sense because in the state I live in as long as you have registered to vote and can give the address to which you are registered there is nothing stopping you from being able to vote. It is time for updates to many laws that allow discriminatory practices. If we are all considered American citizens then there should be no issue when it comes to our right to vote.
