Persons

The chief duty of every government is to protect persons and property.

Most successful people are unorthodox persons whose minds wander outside traditional ways of thinking.

For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion.

In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.

Many native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and thai persons do.

Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs.

Some positions require students to be 15 to 24 or up to 29 for persons with a disability.

Divorced persons are viewed with some disapproval.

Divorced persons may remarry, but a gender prejudice shows up: The divorced male doesn't have a waiting period before he can remarry while the woman must wait ten months.

In some states, for example, jury duty was limited to persons of supposedly superior intelligence, education, and moral character.

The fact that this is not an uncommon occurrence means that dishonest persons might be able to access bank accounts in electronic payments systems and steal from someone else's accounts.
