Deviance Blog Post--March 22

For this post, explain the concept of norms (mores and folkways) and deviance and how it is relative.  Discuss the unjust problems that relativity in deviances causes.  You may also explain how deviance labels people and creates a stigma as well as how it is connected to social class. How is deviance positive and negative.  Can you relate to being positively deviant?  Examples? Reflections on the action?  Some sources we looked at that must be included are Saints and Roughnecks, 30 days in Jail, Power and Violence Chicago Tribune article, and the John Oliver's look at Criminal Justice System. What do the sources reveal about our criminal justice system(CJS)?  How is the social construction of reality present in the CJS?
