My opinion will probably be laughed at, but I`m kind of hoping Hillary Clinton will be the president. I know a lot of people out there don`t agree with a woman to be the president because they don`t think a woman could get any work done, they think a woman is weak, they don`t believe that a woman isn`t afraid to break a nail, but the reality of it is: a woman can do just as good of a job-if not better- than a male president could. It`s kind of a sexist issue to be honest. Nobody thinks that a woman could get problems solved, they think a woman would sit around all day testing nail polishes out, but if a woman came to be president, I think we`d do really well, a woman may not be as muscular or as strong as a man, but one thing`s for sure, a woman could be kinder and more thorough, and a woman is just as smart as any man, and could do everything that a male president could do. Women could be just as good of a president as any male could be. So go Hillary!! We can be anything we want if we put our minds to it. She`ll work hard, just like anybody would.
We can claim video games make us more violent, but to what degree is the real question. Parents today will complain that their child(ren) spend too much time playing video games and they`ll talk about how the game is inappropriate in the matter of violence BUT, are they doing anything to stop it? I mean chances are the parent, grandparent, family friend or whoever else bought the game for them. If you don`t want a child to play violent games first off: don`t by them. second off: Let other people know-if they want to by things for your kids- not to buy those type of games. Especially if they`re younger I mean they have ratings for a reason people. But like some of you, the arguement is the fact that it depends on who you`re talking about, which I agree with that point. It is really about who your audience is, if you see destructive behavior in a kid, obviously be smart enough to steer them away from those games, if they seem to handle it appropriately, then I don`t see anything wrong with letting them-in the game- kill a couple bad guys. Now I`m not saying to let a little 5 year old watch a bunch of zombies with torn off limbs and heads ripped off run around and attack people, I believe there`s a limit of how much-and what type- of violence they`re exposed to. Yes, games may play a small role in the growing violence we have today, but with everything else added into it such as age, person, and the game, ect. it is not a good claim to say that a game turns people violent. In my opinion, if you try to tell me that the game itself turns someone cruel and violent, I`d say that that arguement is invalid. So the answer to the question "Can we really make the claim that video games are making the youth today violent" is yes and no.
I think its stupid. I mean, people did it whether it was legal or not, but to make it "okay" to smoke weed is just ridiculous. Thats like telling a teenager to go have 'it' as long as their`s protection... like just because you have permission doesn`t make it right... and the world already has drug addicts.. now they`re giving KIDS an opprotunity to ruin their futures, and kill themselves.
I agree that current voting systems might seem a little unfair... but I also agree with PopperMan, that there isn`t really a 'fair' solution, considering it is more about the electoral votes, rather than population.
When the teacher asks the class a question to the step of a problem.. ALWAYS say the wrong answer. A student does that everyday in math so he sits in the back of class now
Well I don`t think this really goes with this, but it kina does. well because I`m straight... And this goes to anyone else who is straight, we really can`t judge being gay/lesbian because we ourselves haven`t done it. But on the other hand, it doesn`t make it okay, but at the end of the day, it aint about what gender you like. Its about the gift of life, that we`ve been given
