I don't think. We're not that picky.

2.  Interpret what this case says about the father.

I think this case shows that the father has standards for his children that are too high.

Lots of babies aren't the best looking after being born, probably due to the fact

of being inside someone's belly for nine month, but they can turn out to be very pretty or handsome when the

get older.

I think the if some one if a convicted felon and had been released from jail should have the right to vote if they have been released from prison for a certain number of year. (I.e. is someone was released 25 years ago, they should have the right to vote if they have had good behavior).

5. Why can't the person who wants to pray do it on their own time while everyone else takes care of their business?

Public Prayer Debate questions- sorry so late! :)

1. Why can't people pray on the own? Like if someone at lunch wanted to pray, why cant they just pray to themselves? Those are called unspoken prayers right?

2. Isn't it in the constitution that religion and state should be kept separate? That should be taken into consideration.

BR 11/19/13

if in were a hunter and I fell 16 feet, shattering my spine, and in a coma, It would probably be a very difficult decision to make. He would never be able to hold his baby or give hug. I truly respect this mans' decision.

BR- 11/6/13

1. I think this will be a good idea if they would just keep allowing the employees leave at 4:00p.m to attend their dinners at home. If they continue doing this then shoppers shouldn't have a problem with the store hours.

2. I don't think the U.S would go as far as putting people in jail just for wearing a pin. We as Americans have the right to self expression, which includes pins we want to wear. It would be unjustified if someone went to jail for being themselves.

BR- 11/4/13

This action says that our society take action before the they think or are informed with the truth as to what was happening.

1.  do you believe this letter is too "harsh" why or why not?
In a way the letter makes sense, those who are obese shouldn't be eating very much candy, but we're talking about children the least she could have done was give a piece of sugar free gum with the letter.

 2.   do you believe that it is her Constitutional right to hand out said letter?  Why or why not?
She does have a right to free expression, so if she chose to give out letter instead of candy that's on her. But I bet she won't get too mnay visitors this year.


MY FAVORITE CANDY IS M&MS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMM NOM NOM! ;)

Assignment 10/30/13

Political cartons

1. In this a mother tells her husband that their young daughter was going to be Miley Cyrus for Halloween and the husband fainted. The mother then says she should have specified that it was the Hanna Montana years, not the present. The father most likely fainted because Miley these days doesn't seem to have much self respect.
2. In this cartoon a college student is sitting upon a pedestal and has a hug load on his back. The Sign on the load says United States Congress Debt. The student is holding a paper that says "Double rate on federal student loans."
3. In this carton two children are trick-or-treating, when they come upon the White House. One of the children want to stop to ask for treats but the other says "Forget it! They Only have tricks." I think its funny because of the controversy dealing with Obama care.
4. I saw a carton with a couple standing a the door waiting for trick or treaters. they had three signs in their yard saying you have to be a certain height to get candy, no Miley Cyrus costumes, and no tea party cartons. I thought that was funny.

Its seems, according to my stats, that I am more liberal than anything. A liberal is someone who is open to new behavior or opinions and willing to discard traditional values. Being liberal does explain myself because I wouldn't mind seeing new things happen in the U.S. that wouldn't be considered "traditional". If we make some changes maybe we can actually help our country for a change instead of just running it more and more into debt. I don't just want a change We need a change!

I don't think its fair because if its a certain states money then the officials of that state should get to choose how they spend that money.

Respnse to my grandchild

I have made a difference by helping many people in both big ways and small ways. When I was younger  I read a variety of books from dramas, romances, actions, and suicides. From those books I have learned that not matter what you may be going through, always smile because someone's life may be worse than yours. So, grandchild, I have made a difference by smiling at strangers. Letting them know what someone cares. Though I may not know what going on in your life, I care enough about you to smile as we pass on the street. Always smile, you never know who looking.

Honestly, after 9/11 i'm very surprised something like this happened because I thought the national security was improved dramatically after the terrorists attacks.

read the article and then write a five sentence response to what you feel about privacy versus security. 

Just as Robert Ford said in the articel, if the government really is protecting us as citizen and not telling us, I'm all for that. But if it's just to see what we do and say in social media, thats an invasion of privacy and is against the law. I understand that the government has the right to hack into our social media accounts, but why keep it from us? To be honest, it was probably stated in the Terms and Condition of social media webstes but no one ever reads thouse. Put in it GIANT red font on its own page that appears as you sign us for said social websites.

I'm not too sure if it would be acceptable back then, but if the teachers were able to discipline their studetns physically, then maybe the parents were able to too.

I dont think it was right for the restaurant manager to refuse the african american family service just becasue one person was felling "theatened". In my opinion if  someone feels threatened by being in public with a high number of negro citizens, then maybe they should advoid situstions in which this happens if possible. But I do think it was respectful for the chief marketing officer offered the family an apology and meals all around.

"I have a dream" Assignment civics 5th period.

 "Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood."

What I thing Dr. King meant when he said this quote was that the negro poulation need to be given the promises that the were supposed to have  one hundred years ago. If whites and negros could live to gether in peace and brotherhood, he believed the U.S would be a better place. If you refect on the past life of  the negro population and the look at the U.S now, you can see he was obviously right.

     In Dr. King's speach he lectures about how all man of America deserve to be treated the same as well as given the same rights. King believe that the Negro was being exiled on his own land. Dr. King was tired of segregation and he believed that (and I quote) "There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights." He couldn't stress enough that all men are created equal. He wanted slaves and slave owners to be able to sit together in peace and brothhood. He wanted his children and his grandchildren to not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the conduct of their character. He refused to believe that the "Bank Of Justice" is bankrupt, he knew that their was still so many oppurtunities for negros and white to accomplish together, not separate.

1. Should the two boys be tried as adults? why or why not?
Yes, they should be tried as adults because the committed a very terrible crime. As my personal belief if someone murdurs someone else the should have their lives taken away to, spent in prison or on death row, I mean. A life for a life.

2. Should their identity remain undisclosed or since the crime is heinous? justify your answer?
I dont think they should because the people in the family and community of the victem deserve to know who took their loved one, friend, or neighbor away from them.

3. What can we as a society do to keep crimes like this from happening?
In a way, I don't think we can keep crimes like this from happening all together, but as a society we are about to educate other about why these things shouldn't happen and why legal action should be taken.
