1. I personally think that the child's parents are to blame here.
2. Children under the age of twelve should not even be allowed on a shooting range.
3. Uzis and other automatic weapons definitely do not belong in the hands of children. They do not really belong in anybody's hands, actually.

1. The article is talking about the people wanting to lower U.S taxes. People that own large businesses are upset because taxes are very high. It also talks about how larger businesses are buying out the smaller businesses.
2. To provide a revenue stream for government.
To redistribute wealth from the rich to the poor.
3. I think that larger business owners should have to pay the most taxes because they have the largest, and steadiest money flow.

The article is about a special nail polish that could help prevent women from accidentally taking a date rape drug. The nail polish changes color when it comes into contact with a date rape drug. All that the woman would need to do is stir her drinks with her finger.
I think that this is a great way to prevent a horrible crime. I do not see how this could go wrong at all.

Surveillance flights have been seen flying over Syria. Obama approved these flights. These flights could be searching for targets, which if Obama approves, could be bombed. This will allow the military to better coordinate air strikes.

The article is talking about a horrible disaster that happened in California Sunday morning. An earthquake struck leaving ninety to one hundred homes unlivable. It also destroyed around fifteen buildings in wine country. It was the largest earthquake to hit in twenty five years.
All earthquakes in the state are caused by the shifting of the tectonic plates.

Assignment 8/22/14
There are many things wrong with the United States now days. The economy is easily the biggest of the problems. The current United State debt is higher than it has ever been. Also, gas prices are very high. Drugs, welfare, social security, unemployment. I could go on forever.
I will first start with what many people see to be the biggest problem in the United states. The economy. We no longer produce what we need to sustain ourselves. We import much more than we export, and we are selling off our assets and taking on massive debts to sustain a standard of living we can no longer afford. To solve this problem, we should create more jobs by exporting.
The next problem with the United States is the constantly increasing debt. The United States debt is at it's highest right now. It is currently up to 17.7 trillion dollars and is constantly rising. To fix this problem, I think we should cut the pay of congress, and maybe have a government shut down for a while.
One other huge problem is welfare. Welfare is a great idea, with great intentions. But, like most things, Americans feel the need to misuse it. I think that welfare should be looked into more. When people file for welfare, they should have to prove that they need it to survive.
I hope that you enjoyed my essay on the problems with the United States. Hopefully, sometime soon, we can fix these problems.

1. I think the challenge is great because it spreads awareness to ALS.
2. I think it has been very effective. It has raised 31.5 million dollars.

1. Released the name of the officer.
Used tear gas on a peace rally.
2. Excessive force would be if Brown attacked the police officer and threatened his life. I do not believe excessive force was used.
3. I would try to investigate further and release more honest information to the people. Other than that, it just takes time.

Dear Evan,
Its finally over. You made it through your high school career. I thought it would last forever. I am sure that by this time you are starting to hate the real world. I am sure that you have matured a bit since leaving high school. I hope you learned everything you needed to know before leaving the high school. I doubt you have accomplished much by this time. Hopefully you have a steady, decent paying job, that you enjoy doing. I hope that you have started saving up some money so that you can move and see the world a little bit. I would hope that you could be moving out soon into a cheap apartment or something. Maybe you could be renting a small house.
The biggest thing that I hope you have done is begin to make a little money on the side with music. I hope that you are still trying to pursue music. And that maybe some day you will be able to completely make a living off of your music. I hope that you still plan on traveling the country and maybe even the entire world. I think that would be very interesting and I am hoping that you still do too. Well, its been really nice talking with myself. I hope that you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did.
Sincerely,
Yourself
