What Do Others Think?

what do most people you talked to seem to think? 

Most people  seem to think that bullying is making someone feel selfconious,feeling depressed,hurt,&harassing. They also said that most of them have been bullied or teased by other people & etc. Most people say that the punishment should be expulsion & Dentention because of all types of bullying. The people i interviewed said that their opinion of bullying is that why can't they be friends with each other.

 Do you see a pattern in the responses?

yes i see a pattern , they all have the same opinions on  what they think about bullying& how they think is wrong.

Gun control & safety

Well I'm  very depressed with what happen in Newtown,Connecticut because why would he kill 28 people for no reason.I wonder what made this guy kill all those  nice& greatful kids for no reason, also what made Adam Lanza want to kill his mom, all those teachers ,& little kids that went to newton. many people in the U.S want the guy rules to tighten up a lot because of the many shootings in the other states as well. i personally think that they should tighten up on gun because people/ kids are getting killed for no reason & also because it makes no sense to me that people buy guns in the uses them in a dumb act of violence such as a robby,drive by & etc.

what's important to you?

1.What's important to you? I would say that's what's most important to me is Family,Friends & my pets. Without them I would be one lonely lost child in the world not knowing what to do or anything, &  without family ,friends,&  my pets I wouldn't have no one to go to If I was down or needed someone to talk to.
2.What do you care most about? I mostly care about Family & Friends Because Without them I don't know How I Would Live My Life.  
3.What goals do you have for your future? The Goals I Have Are:

• To Make It Through High School & Life
• To Get A Scholarship For Football 
•  To Make My Family Proud Of Me Making It Through High School 
• To Graduate College
• To Go To The NFL
• To Live LIfe Long As I can 

4.What motivates you to do your best and keep you focused on your goals?
What Motivates Me To Do My Best Is When My Mom's Pushes Me To get My Grades Up & Also What Motivates Me To Do my best Is When My Friends & Family Say " I Know You Can Do Better Than That' & Get Better Grades than that.



I would encourage them to stay focus & movtivaed  by telling them some of my mistakes that i had through out my school life & hopefully they dont do what i did in middle school/elementary. i would aslo in encourage them to stay focused on school because school is very important & also you need your education to get at least a job or at least money in your life so that you could have a decent home or etc.

playing the news

Once you've completed this task, you will create a new blog post that answers the following:
1) Which news story did you select? Why? I Chose Drinking Age Debate because all of the other stories were closed & they didn't really interest me on choosing them.
2) Which perspective or side did you choose? Why? The Perspective I choose was that they should reduce the drinking age to 18 because  people who fight in the war & that is 18 , should be able to go back home  & grab a Beer or whatever without getting in trouble by the law because their an adult now.
3) What did you decide should happen? Why? I Decide that they should lower the drinking age because that's not fair for the people who are 18 so be able to drink anyway because they are adult now that there 18.
4) What was your prediction? Explain. i predict that they should change so that the 18 year old's should be able to drink like everybody else who isn't 18 but still drink.
5) What do you think about this kind of interactive news approach? i found this news story interesting because of the fact that people wanna lower the drinking age so that everyone could be treated fairly in life even though, life isn't fair.

Impact of Photojournalism

CNN iReport task 1:
These Images affect my connection to  the story being reported because in one of the photos , It was a similar situation because I once had to leave my house because of a huge fire that was close by my house.


NOUPE task 2:
This Image speaks to me because of how the kids in this photo are not at home with their mom, but there out with there dad while is drinking & etc. The real reason why this Image speaks to me is because of how there letting this little boy smoke period & also smoking  with the dad standing right there. i say they shouldn't let little boys smoke in St.Jacques period.

   How does this image help tell the story? It  helps tells the story about the clock which got it's name "Big Ben" & aslo it looks like its been in London for a very long time.

"THE GREAT DEBATE MOVIE REVIEW"

 THE GREAT DEBATE  WAS DIRECTED BY DENZEL WASHINGTON , STARING DENZEL WASHINGTON,FOREST WHITAKER,NATE PARKER,DENZEL WHITAKER IS BASED ON A TRUE STORY , WHERE A DEBATE COACH WHO GATHERS A GROUP OF STUDENTS FROM A SMALL COLLEGE FROM EAST TEXAS TO FORM A DEBATE TEAM WHO GIVES HARVARD ELITE SQUAD A RUN FOR THIER MONEY. AS A GREAT PROFESSOR FROM WILEY COLLEGE , MR TOLSON  PUT JIM CROW'S LAW TO TO THE TEST OF DISCRIMINATORY IN THE 1930'S.
 MY OPINION OF THE MOVIE IS THAT , THIS A VERY GOOD MOVIE BECAUSE IT TALKS ABOUT HOW WE GOT SOME OF OUR RIGHTS . I THINK THAT THE MOVIE WAS GOOD BECAUSE OF HOW THE ACTORS ACTED THIER PART OUT IN THE MOVIE. OVERALL IN  THE MOVIE I SAY THAT HENRY LOWE ( NATE PARKER) WAS THE BEST ACTOR BECAUSE HE BELIEVED IN HIS SELF THAT THEY COULD WIN THE DEBATE AGAINST HARVARD & I ALSO THINK HE IS THE BEST ACTOR BECAUSE HE COULD BACK UP WHAT HE WAS DEBATING ABOUT. I WOULD RECOMMEND SOMEONE WHO LIKES TO DEBATE ABOUT THINGS TO GO SEE THIS MOVIE BECAUSE THEY COULD TAKE THE DEBATE SUBJECTS FROM THE MOVIE & MAYBE DEBATE THEM AT SCHOOL. TO  BE  HONEST I WOULD NOT WANNA SEE THIS MOVIE  AGAIN BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE WOULD MAKE SOME DUMB COMMENTS DURING THE MOVIE & SOME PEOPLE WOULD GET MAD WITH THAT PERSON WHO MADE THE COMMENT.

Election Day

                                                                   Who would you vote for & why???
I would vote for Obama again, because the reason i would vote him because he seems like the person who know's what he is doing in the president spotlight, i would also vote for him because he would have to work harder on his promises he made this year as being re-elected as president for 2 more terms & he could take care of his promises he made to america.
