Lifes changes

I think that people actually change after something bad occurs. Most people need experience before they can effectivly change and most people that I know are to hard headed to change on their own. But it's not always a bad thing to change after something bad i have time to time but I've learned to expect the worse. but for some people by the time they change it is too late. but change can also occur right before something tragic also which is not a bad idea.

Write a blog post where you explain whether or not you think the United States should or should not get involved in other countries affairs. Be sure to provide at least two specific examples from U.S. history to defend your argument. Give your post an appropriate title.

I think that the U.S. should not get in other countries business because that would be an unfair situation for the other country or countries involved because you don't reall know the other side of things. The U.S. got involved in Korea because of the thought of communism and they did'nt want to take that chance but I think that was a good safe move that had to be done for outr country the also entered Vietnam for those same thoughts and many people died who were against the war and the first place. I think that the U.S. should just mind their own business if the situation doesn't effect them directly.

its my business

Is it ok to get involved on other people's business? Consider the questions below to get you thinking about this question:
Have you ever jumped into someone else's business? If so, why?
Under what conditions/situations is it ok or even necessary for you to get involved in someone else's business?
When should people mind their own business?

It's not ok to get in other peoples business thats why it's there business. I have gotten in other peoples business unfortunatley and it never seems to end so well. People are most of the time very captive with their business in they dont want to let other people in. And when you just jump in and try to help someone yourself you end up looking stupid. The only time I think it would be okay to get in someone else's business would be in a life changing moment like somebody getting beat at home or doing drugs. If its anything that has nothing to do with dying then people should mine there business.

Beatiful Money

Is is all about the money? Consider the questions below to get you thinking about this question:
Are people actions driven by money?
Does money lead to happiness?
Are the people that have money any better than those that don't?
How do the wealthy get their money? Was it their work or others work that makes them rich?
Is it the responsibility of those that have money to share with others?

Yes I do think peoples actions are driven by money because money is the motivation. money is the reason why people get up day after day and go through their straineous jobs. money is the reason why there's so much crime in the united states.

I think money does lead to happiness but it has to be in the right hands. Some people just go around flaunting and spending their money of course your going to be happy for that short period of time but what if something goes wrong and your suddenly bankrupt. But on the other hand if somebody is using their riches to help others then thats true happiness to me at least.
thats going to make everyone happy.

I think that people who do have money aren't any different from anybody else their just very fortunate. people without money aren't any different either the way I look at it is we were all born at one point so how could any one else be better just because they have materials that will parrish eventually.

I split question 4 right down the middle sometimes people with money really do make money from hard work. but their are some who sit on their but while the underpaid are slaving away.

It's really not people with money responsibility to share it with others. But if you have more than enough why not. I mean you could invest in someone or something take a chance on a person

Crazy Hospital

So many johns
So many Tim’s
Buckets of arm’s
Piles of limbs

A sight for none
How I wish this were done
Put a end to the harm
Would sure do the charm

The Smell is sickening
Of sweet blood and tears
Pessimistic the place
Of your very worst fears

Shame on the Almighty War
Which brings me so much blood
So many dead men
How much more can we afford

Dirty uniforms
Men deformed
But never retreated hope still in the air
Spirits not defeated

assigmnet 8 poems

Men dying from left to right
Many casualties in sight
Men taken each lives
And fleeing in fright

A battle like this
Was one thing for sure
July the 1st
The bloodiest war -+

Many daughters that cry
Plenty mothers that morn
On this forsaken day
Just acknowledge the corn

That the tide is turned
A lesson is learned
The north is powerful
Your town will be burned

A change in the war
Has just occurred
This is a change some
Couldn’t afford

What led up to the fight
Whether or not your tried to avoid the fight and how
The events of the fight
The outcome of the fight
Did the fight improve or hurt your relationship with that person?
Any lesson(s) you learned from the fight

About a year ago i got to fighting with my a little brother. First off we was at the park playing basketball and it was some tension all that day because my little brother always feels like he should be able to beat me and everything for some strange reason. Well we played one-on-one and i won the game. As we were walking home he threw a tennis ball at the back of my head and that was what started the fight. I didn't really try to avoid the fight because of the fact that i was to mad to think straight. the fight was not that long but it wasn't pretty also the outcome was that some dude came n pulled us apart. The really didn't improve the relationship because he still talks about who won and sometimes having a rematch but it's stupid over and done wit to me. If I learned anything it would have to be don't fight your little brother because he will always win even if he losses.

Growing Pains

Growing up can be Helpful and painful. When growing up you are maturing and getting smarter so you are kind of becoming a better person. But with age there will be more responsibility. I know some be that couldn't handle this responsbility. This is when growing can be painful like if you lose a loved one some people just cant accept change like others. I love Growing because if your not then your basically just putting your life on repeat.

Do you think there is a time to break the law?

Do you think there is a time to break the law? You might think that there should never be a time to break the law you may even think that it’s unethical. Sometimes its very necessary what if your life liberty and freedom was in jeopardy. Would you break the law in this case I would. Sort of like the social contract theory which states that the government will protect your rights and freedoms as long as you abide by the laws but if they are upholding their side of the deal you could break your side of the contract as I see it.

Well the Americans rights were not being upheld. The British king was unrightfully taxing the colonist and taking advantage of them. The British first put the stamp act into affect which was a ridicules tax on stamps because the British being in debt. They then ratified the Intolerable Acts which was a another tax on tea and a number of imported goods. To make their own government that would uphold their rights the colonist declared independence from the British in order to not be taken advantage of. I think the colonists were absolutely justified in breaking the law. We know have the United States as a result of this whole situation.
In the 20th Century the law was broken again plenty of times. I remember when Rodney king who was a taxi driver who was speeding was caught by the police tazzered and beaten by four policemen while six others were just watching. His Life was being toyed with by being beat so I feel that he had a right to break the law. The news of triggered the Los Angeles riots of 1992. By the time the police, the US Army, the Marines and the National Guard restored order, the casualties included 53 deaths, 2,383 injuries, and more than 7,000 fires, damages to 3,100 businesses, and nearly $1 billion in financial losses. Smaller riots occurred in other cities such as Las Vegas and Atlanta. On May 1, 1992, the third day of the L.A riots. The citizens of L.A. was breaking the law to show the LAPD that they would not stand for this outrage. Even though the riots may have been satisfying to some I still feel as if they were not justified.

Was the Boston Massacre necessary

was this really necessary
People of authority back then took advantage of there power. solders started attack innocent people who were unarmed. the Boston Massacre showed me that the British had absolutely no respect for the colonies. They should not even have felt theartend because the civilans were unarmed and were at a disadvantage. I was surprised when i read that there were young people who made a stand it showed me that people back then were really united.

1. List five purposes of the government.
2. Would you be willing to join a revolution if our government was not fulfilling the purposes of government you listed above? Why? Why not?

I think the government is made for these 5 purposes. Number one I think its here to make laws and stuff. Number two probably to enforce laws because theres is no reason to have laws if no one has to ebide by them. Number 3 is to collect taxes. Number 4 reprentation. Number 5 to keep order.

Yes I would because if the government isn't holding up their part of the deal then it should defintely be time for a change. I would try to overthrow the government.

Husbands and Wives

I read this article bout husbands and wives by Benjamin Wadsworth and it kind of made sense but it was stupid at the same time. Back when there were colonies they really thought that man were suppose to be better than a females. It seemed as If the husband was to think for his wife he had to be head of her. It really suprised me when they said if your're wife wasn't as young and pretty as you thought she should be stay by her side, Honestly that really suprised me because back in those days they treated women bad. Now and days women do more things then their husbands and is considered the head of the household. I would reall prefer the a woman as head because they're more logical then man. Now and days if you dont like what your spoue is doing or looking you just divorce them anyway.

What motivates immigrants to move?

I think people come here today because they believe in the american dream. I quess they think that they will have more oppurtunitys to fulfill their dreams. Some people might even come over to get rich or famous which is not a bad idea. In some countries they tell you what to do and when to do it which is defintely not the case in america, maybe the change can be very refreshing to some.

If I moved to another country it would be for economic reasons because I love money, and if moving away ment more money I would do it in a heartbeat no matter who I left behind. Money comes first because how are you going to eat without it. Just being real I would probably not care who I left behind because I would bring lots of people with me.
