Arizona shooting

1. The one to blame is the person who let a nine year old test a fully automatic weapon he first try.
2.Certain guns. Defiantly not a fully automatic weapon.
3.No, They are too young and wouldn't know how to properly check to see if the clip is full or if there is one in the chamber. And yes, Fully automatic weapons have progressed war and success for us. If held in professional hands, they are a serious killing machine.

    One of the N.C. colleges invented a new nail polish. It is made to change colors when it is exposed to any date rape drugs. You stir the drink with your finger and it'll change colors immediately.

Syria bellringer, 8/26

We have an idea, that will provide targets to hit in Syria. That's only if the airstrike for Syria militants are approved. The U.S. government said they are not cooperating with the Assad regime.

whats wrong with the goverment?

     Our largest problems in America are the gas prices, unemployment, and the U.S. debt. Coming right out of school, each person owes over 55 grand towards the debt clock. The working class of America is barely over 1/3 of the population for the U.S.
   
    First thing off of my head, big oil company's own America. They have congressmen and senator and mayor, even the presidential office in the palm of their hands, just with the power of money. Gas is 3.59$ a gallon. That' more ridiculous than when Clinton said " I have tried marijuana, only once, and I didn't inhale." One solution for this is everyone could stop buying gas and strike.

     Unemployment is a serious problem here in America. There are only a third of all Americans' working at the moment. This is why we are in debt, why have taxes if their isn't anybody working to take the taxes from. Also, why charge the poor people more for taxes and the rich people less?

     America owes 18 trillion dollars to a variety of different countries. Last year we made tons of budget cuts, these was going to pay off the debt in 15 years. Well, since then we have spent billions of useless, pointless things. I know that because we are America, one of the laziest and most mixed countries. We are filled with idiots, geniuses, average people. We have some of the healthiest, and unhealthiest people in the world.

     After writing this essay, I have realized that I know much more about America then I first realized. I didn't have to look any of this up, I learned it all from Mr. Bowers. He was such a wonderful and practically the perfect teacher.

1. I think its pretty good, it has raised millions of dollars for ALS.
2. I believe its effective, because its working. Here I am, never heard of ALS before and when the Ice water challenge is involved in it, I hear about ALS. Its also effective because the ALS committee has 41 million dollars in donations.

taxes bellringer 8/20/14

1. This article was about a woman who put her corporate flag up in the Netherlands because of the tax rate in the U.S. She was saying that everyone should open over seas contracts and businesses because the tax rate is so much lower.
2. Taxes come from everyone, they help pay for bridges, playgrounds, parks, and federal funding.
3. The rich people and the big corporations. 99% of American money owned by americans is in the hands of 3% of the U.S. citizens.

bellringer for 8/19/14

1. The police should of came out and told the public what the officers name was that shot Mr. brown.
Instead of canceling school for a day, their local police department should of took extra care and patrolled around the school and near by streets.
2.Excessive force in my opinion means spraying bullets with no probable cause. If the victim had a lethal weapon, or charged at them, then use excessive force. I don't believe excessive force was used, all they did was " allegedly" shoot a robber.
3. They should be trying hard to disperse the crowd without tear gas. The tear gas isn't helping calm the people down but it makes them angry and does the opposite of calming them down. I would be trying my best to get all the information I could get to the crowd.

Dear Senior,
  
                      I have accomplished so much already at PB. I'm a completer in the study of Agriculture. I love coming to school, I just hate waking up so early. I would love to improve my people skills before I leave here permanently. I cant wait until I graduate, so I can jump right into the air force. These years at PB have changed myself a lot and it went by way too quickly. This time next year hopefully ill be in pilot training to learn to operate jets and commercial airlines.  This is the beginning of our lives, and I believe most of us are ready for it.
