It is good that they had their first integrated prom. No one should be racist and hopefully they ended that with the integrated prom.

They should be able to wear whatever they want. They're in middle school so they shouldn't be worried about all of that stuff.

Obama showed comfort for all the people of Boston. He said that they will find the ones responsible and that they will run again. The detailed diagram of how to make and explosive with a pressure cooker is a little strange.

Whoever did this will get in a lot of trouble. They will be in jail for the rest of their life. We will make them pay for what they did in Boston. The consequences shouldn't be different if they are non citizens. They should be in just as much trouble. They do folllow the constitution.

I am tired of hearing about gun control. But they do need to make a decision before something big happens. It is good that they are trying to make the country safer.

It is hard to understand why someone would want to do something like this. But good will always outnumber the bad. Our country is very resilient and will make us stronger.

They should make the gun laws more strict and less people would get murdered. The also need to reduce the amount of higher caliber weapons that seem unncecesary to own.

4/10/13 Assignment

College Sports Versus Academics- This one I get. It pokes fun at the Mike Rice firing where he shoved, hit and threw basketballs at his players. It is also saying that student athletes don't need to work as hard at school than those who do. Which is true..

North Korea threats- I like this one because it is Kim Jong Un coming out of a clock but instead of saying "Koo-Koo" he is saying "Nuke You". It's funny because he has threatened to shoot missles at South Korea and USA.

OIL- This one is about the Exxon oil spill. It has a man having oil spilt out of him with uncle sam saying he needs to buy pampers and a lot of them. It is in response to the oil spill in Arkansas that is kind of being shoved to the side by the government.

Roger Ebert- This one is about the death of Roger Ebert. He died earlier this week. It shows the earth as a reel of film and he is climbing the reel like a ladder to heaven. He was born in 1942. He was 71 years old.

Obama shoots hoops- This one shows President Obama shooting basketball and missing. A reporter is shown writing, "The basket misses Obama's shots." It hints that Obama does no wrong and that reporters seem to find someone else to take the blame.
