Teens Cause Death of Seven Year Old
I feel that the girls should definitely be charged as adults. It was a stupid, immature, and outrageous thing to do. In what scenario did it make sense or is it okay to drop kick seven year old. I also think that some games are too violent and they cause teens to think that fighting is okay and fun. These games mess with the minds of normal people and cause them to begin to believe that fighting is just fro fun and nothing bad can come from it. They think it is just for a good time.
Super Powers
If I could have one super power it would be the power to read peoples minds. I would like to now what they were thinking, and be able to see everyone's views on the world around us. Plus if someone was keeping a secret from me I would eventually and probably very easily find out. And if I was takign a test I could read my teachers mind as well as the students areound me, I wouldn't need to study!!Life would be sweet, but I might hear some things that I would not want to. Such as people talking about other people or having mean thoughts. But perhaps even knowing these things could be helpful.
Abortion
I believe that abortion is murder. Every child has the right to experience life, and no human should be able to determine if another should live or die. People are not God, and therefore they do not have the right to make this decision. If a person is having sex than they need to consider the outcomes first. I have no respect for people who have sex and then get pregnant and do not take responsibility for there actions. I know so me people will read this and think, but what if the woman is raped? Well, honestly though she did not make the desicion to have sex I still do not think that they should take away a life. It may not be what they wanted, but there is always adoption if they do not want to raise the the child. Overall like I said in the beginning I am completely against abortion.
Gardasil
Gardasil is a vaccine that helps make a woman immune to HPV. It protects against four types of the virus, two of which account for 70% of cervical cancer. When I first heard about this vaccine I thought that it was pointless for a girl of my age to get the vaccine because it can only be transmitted by sexual contact and I can get till I am 26. However, two nights ago I went to a bioethics meeting on HPV and I learned some new things that have changed my opinion. Though many religions and parents feel the way that I previously felt, that it would mean that it would be okay for teens to have sex, I now understand that this is not the case. Statistics show that most teenagers mainly will not have sex because they do not want a baby. Fear of STDs were low on the list. Also to address the age issue, though it may seem drastic to recommend the vaccine to 12 year olds, it makes perfect sense. Getting at that age allows enough time for the vaccine to instill nad immunity in the person. So now with this information I am more open to recieving the vaccine and wil most likely ask for it.
Propoganda

My grandmother has always told me a story about when she was little and how a nun told her this saying. I think it is very true about many people's lives. People often make excuses to fall back on when they don't want to do something. Or a person may tend to lean on a certain person to much, what they cannot stand on their own two feet.
