in title, tags, annotations or urlNorth Korea nuclear test was 10 times bigger than Hiroshima blast, U.S. says - CBS News - 3 views
-
this is a blast to read, at least 10 times as fun as it sounds.
-
Why does North Korea think we are the ones threatening world peace and safety when they are the ones publicly saying they are ready for "Total War" and are prepared to use their nuclear weapons? Does Kim Jung Un not realize that using nuclear weapons IS a world peace/safety hazard?
Clinton consumed with Russian meddling, she writes in new book - CNNPolitics - 5 views
-
I don't think Hiliary had the right to go and meet the Russian president like that and then write a book on how much she didn't like Trump. When I don't like someone and they make my skin crawl I can't do anything about it but since she is rich and former White House 1st lady she can?
-
You actually can do things about it. And yes, she can. She is allowed to say that Trump made her uncomfortable.
-
I actually think almost the exact opposite. While I think Hilary went a little overboard, she had every right to do so, as stated in the first amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." And if it wasn't in Hilary's right to write that book and state her personal opinions on this matter, then what gives us the "right" to bring back nazis and treat others as second class citizens, saying it's all opinion and just exercising their free speech? And yes, you could do something about it, and many people are doing something about it. Hilary is just much more likely to get noticed and was noticed by the press because of her status.

Putin to US: Don't play along with North Korea - CNN - 4 views
-
It is very smart of the Russian President to say what he did. It makes sense and sounds like some very sound advice.
-
I think that Putin is being to easy on north Korea if they cut all of their lines of tom Pyongyang i think it would create more pressure on the north Korean government then their only trading partner would be china.

Neo-Nazi site founder says 'troll storm' is protected speech, wants lawsuit dismissed - CNN - 22 views
-
"Gersh says Anglin used his website as a platform to encourage his thousands of readers to contact her through email messages, social media, letters and phone calls. They all centered on two facts: She was Jewish."
-
If people are harassing Anglin, then it should not be protected by the first amendment. The first amendment says that the government can't stop you from saying what you want, but there are still consequences for everything you say.
-
It complicates the case that Anglin isn't the one leaving these harassing messages HIMSELF, but his followers are. Does he have to take responsibility for their behavior since he was the one that called them to action and gave up her contact information online?
Education Should Be About Building Democratic Citizens, Not Compliant Workers - 7 views
-
While the article is about South Africa, many of it's points ring true for America. Education, when you think about it in the deepest manner, is not really about Education; it's about proving you'd be a good worker, and not much else. But I'm curious to see what others think.
-
I agree with the article about how schools should focus on building democratic citizens, instead of just good workers. Young people need to know their rights and how they can impact the country, and some places don't do a good job teaching children those things. I've personally learned a lot about my rights in government class, so I think our school is doing a good job.
-
I believe that the education system in America is mainly about passing more than it is about learning. I feel like I'm working a job and the assignments that I finish are just to get the job done. However, I believe that when students actual learn, understand, and are amazed by different topics, that is the true point of education. In all, while this article was about South Africa, it shows how we shouldn't be focusing on being a good worker but how we should be focusing on becoming better citizens.
Juvenile Justice: Too young for Life in Prison? - 10 views
-
I feel like you should be able to charge juveniles as adults. I think it would be absurd to just let kids away with committing crimes, especially the one this kid did. If an adult did something like this no one would even think twice about arresting them, why is it different in this case? I think that he needs to be put behind bars and he needs some sort of counseling because obviously something is not right with him. It might also help to know what kind of background the kid has, to see why he did it. There has to be a reason.

You both make a good point, but when a kid gets charged with a felony, he obviously has done wrong. Sometimes you do bad things, but its not as bad compared to other things. Though when you get older, you can continue to do bad things, and the bad things can turn into crimes, etc. Sometimes charging teens as adults is the way to go, even if it doesn't seem fare. Maybe not fore life, but two years, or even one, wont do any harm.
-
I think if someone did crime, they should be punished no matter their age. so make them realize how bad it is.
A heavily fortified Minneapolis awaits verdict in Chauvin trial - POLITICO - 14 views
-
Thoughts?
- ...9 more comments...
-
It's obvious that this man needed to be punished for his actions and no one should be shocked. Watching the video of George Floyds last few minutes was awkward and seemed inhuman and could have easily had been stopped regardless of the struggle he was giving or the drugs he was on, that officer killed him. He spent the last few minutes of a precious life begging for mercy and that was it. So Chauvin is getting the treatment anyone else would get.
-
It is crazy how some people do not see Chauvin in the wrong. This was complete discrimination against him and this should not have happened. Punishments are necessary for him and he took a life from a family that could never be given back or forgiven, when he could've handled the situation in a more fair, civil way.
South Carolina adds firing squad to execution methods after running out of lethal-injection drugs - ABC News - 20 views
-
"Politicians in South Carolina have voted to add a firing squad to the state's execution methods amid a lack of lethal-injection drugs"
- ...16 more comments...
-
Honestly, lethal injection isn't any better they still suffer even with that method so I don't really see a problem with this because they will be killed either way.
-
I think a firing squad is a more humane death than lethal injection. Trained men with rifles and a well-placed shot to the head are the swiftest way to go.
Can people bring guns to voting sites? You might be surprised - Los Angeles Times - 27 views
-
What's your guys' opinion on this?
- ...28 more comments...
-
It's a bad idea. Why would someone need to bring a gun to a voting site? Just vote and then leave. leave your gun at home for this.
-
I think it's a bad idea to let people bring guns to voting sites because theirs literally no reason to, there going to vote, and if anything letting people take guns will just make it worse.
Ted Cruz's Cancun Trip: Family Texts Detail His Political Blunder - 18 views
-
Personally, I feel like it was wrong for Ted Cruz to go to Cancun when Texas is freezing and having a power outage. What are your thoughts on this?
- ...16 more comments...
-
Why would you abandon your state when they need you most? Sounds selfish and morally just wrong.
-
I think that Ted Cruz was dumb for this because he is a senator and should be trying to do something about their outages but instead he became selfish and fled to Mexico.
Iowa bans mask mandates in schools, cities after Reynolds signs law - 6 views
-
I believe that it is good that the mask law has been lifted a little because Texas and Florida did it first and they have not had any negative results in doing so. What are your thoughts?
- ...2 more comments...
-
I'm glad the mask mandate was lifted and a lot of people weren't really wearing them, to begin with, and a lot of people are getting vaccinated so I think a good step forward and getting closer to normal.
-
don't really like this idea. It was lifted way too learnly. Most of the people who decided to take off their masks aren't even fully vaccinated. it will be sad when most of them die.
Fact Checking Biden's First Week in Office - 7 views

Thoughts on this?
- ...2 more comments...
-
As someone who identifies as a leftist and a progressive, I think that Biden has done a very good job but there will always be more that I think that he should do. Compromise with the Republicans in Congress isn't an option right now.
-
Biden has done a pretty good job so far but there are obviously further steps he needs to take but it's early on and he's at least going down the right path as of now.

McConnell Votes To Dismiss Trump Impeachment Trial As Only Five Senate Republicans Side With Democrats - 10 views
-
This process took too long to complete before Trump left office. Now some feel that finishing the Senate trial is a waste of time. What do you think?
- ...6 more comments...
-
I think they should not try impeaching again because now that Trump is out of office they don't have to worry about whatever he does. America has several other huge problems and needs to focus all of its attention on getting life back to normal before worrying about a man that's not in any federal position.
-
Commenting of what ndvorak said here. I do, in fact, believe most politicians are criminals. Every politician that has not tried to use their powers to quell deaths during Covid, or tried to stop our shipments of weapons to Saudi Arabia, or tried to stop our use of drone warfare, they have blood on their hands.
