"In fact, recently, a group of students at Camarillo High School, northwest of Los Angeles, were ejected after leading a rally at a basketball game against a rival school. "

This happened at one of the basketball games I was at this year and I thought it was very disrespectful but nothing was said or done to the student section that said it.

Those people were just stupid, they took the chant to a whole different level how it wasn't meant to be.

OK so it is not being proposed in the USA, but this bill recently introduced in Canada is pretty interesting. Think about the people in our country who protest, but don't want their identity to be shown. Would you support this bill or not?

I think it might be better if you have to register to be part of a protest but to have the list sealed unless things get violent

I think that they should show there faces. Its there choice to go, so then show yourself, dont hide.

(CNN) -- Children with severe respiratory illnesses are flooding the emergency room of USA Children's and Women's Hospital in Mobile, Alabama, according to CNN affiliate WPMI. Doctors started noticing an increase in children with severe colds and troubling breathing in mid-August, said Dr. Jason Richerson, medical director of USA Children's & Women's Evaluation Center.

It's sad that there are 80 people in six states who have been tested positive for having the respiratory illness caused by the EV-D68.

Yeah I wonder what started it?

"The United Stated suffered damage in that it did not receive the value of the services for which it bargained," the complaint said."

I think this is right for the government to sue Lance because basically they were giving him money that could have possibly been used for illegal drugs.

"Supporters say providing legal status for the undocumented would bring people out of the shadows and ensure that they are working and paying taxes."

i think that this could really help us out cause then they would know that they are actually working for what they earn and so they actually pay taxes

Inmates from the Eastern New York Correctional Facility defeated the prestigious Harvard debate team in mid-September as part of the Bard Prison Initiative, a program run by Bard College to provide college education to qualifying prisoners, according to the Wall Street Journal.

This makes me think of the Toffler reading from our Chpt 1. "It is the truly revolutionary characteristic of knowledge that it can be grasped by the weak and the poor as well. Knowledge is the most democratic source of power." The USA imprisons more people than anywhere else in the world. Obviously there is a lot of talent being untapped by people who chose crime instead of channeling their efforts in positive ways.

The USA TODAY NETWORK analysis found many examples of failure of screening at the school district level, including school systems first made aware of troubled teachers on their staffs by journalists.

I think that the federal government needs to create a way for the misconduct of teachers to be tracked. Some of the teachers were losing their licence in one state and just moved to a new state to get another licence. The federal government needs to step in since it is affecting all the states.

This would for sure help our debt if they did end up legalizing it and taxing it!

I am actually surprised that the govt hasn't legalized it yet because the govt loves money and marijuana sales makes on average 1.5 billion dollars a year so in about 10 years (maybe) the USA could actually not be in debt.

i dont see why marijuana is not legal anymore its actually funny how our first president grew marijuana as a cash crop

By Scott Boeck and Katharine Lackey, USA TODAY STATE COLLEGE, Pa. - They gathered around the bronze statue of their former football coach shortly after the news spread Sunday morning. Less than a mile away from Beaver Stadium, Joe Paterno died at Mount Nittany Medical Center at the age of 85.

"US Debt Visualized in $100 BillsUnited States owes a lot of money. As of 2012, US debt is larger than the size of the economy. The debt ceiling is currently set at $16.394 Trillion, estimated to be hit around Sep 14, 2012. "

Sad, why do people have to be so cruel

Bullying is to hard to detect now a days hard to stop

Here at our school, bullying is a big issue when basing it off of what I see on a typical day. There are students and teachers who do their best to prevent it as much as possible, but then there are some who allow it to happen without ever making any sort of attempt to stop it. I do not think that charges should be made against anyone for this case, however. To me it's like throwing a rock at nothing and expecting it to hit something. How would pressing charges do anything? How do you know that doing so would affect the people who had bullied the kid in the first place? Unless there's evidence of who committed the actions, why, and how, then I don't think that suing anyone would be justified. But, I do believe that making and enforcing more rules to target bullying would help decrease it, as well as make people more conscious of how their words and actions affect people.

US President Barack Obama Only days after clearing Congress, US President Barack Obama signed his name to H.R. 347 on Thursday, officially making it a federal offense to cause a disturbance at certain political events - essentially criminalizing protest in the States.
