    The controversy with the right to bear arms starts with the goverment. Only a goverment who is affraid of its citizens trys to control them. Gun control is not about the guns, its about taking control. When you remove the right to bear arms, we can not defend ourselves from senseless crimes.

    It's nice to see how serious our law enforcement agencies are taking this. I'm all for making an example out of this kid. However, I'm not sure if 20 years is the answer either. If anything the kid needs some help, not a third of his life behind bars. Of course I can't share a definite observation, and opinion on the matter because I haven't listen to the video. Again, either way the security of our nation and its people is and should be highest priority.

    This article does go into detail a bit more than the news covers. I also wonder since POTUS has started renegotiating the pipeline, what will happen with the protesters this time? Hopefully, they will find an alternative route not so close to the land in question.

    After the controversial awards ceremony that took place on August 25, many people who support the Television Consumer Freedom Act are demanding cable providers to enable customers to pay only for channels that they choose to support. Arizona Senator John McCain supports this and other changes that would allow more freedom for consumers to choose what they purchase from cable companies.

    Breastfeeding in public necessarily means breastfeeding around other people. Therefore if we learn to do it discretely it will not be such a controversy.

    Abortion is such a hard topic to discuss. It is difficult for me to see the side of "choice" because from a conservative religious standpoint I cannot in good conscious support abortion.

    I agree this is a very controversial topic. In my opinion, it's truly hard to pick a side due to the fact that I understand both perspectives. Regardless, it's an issue that I hope gets resolved, eventually.
  • chr2131264 on 02 Sep 19
     
    I don't like the idea that "gun ownership deters crime." Criminals are criminals, because they don't consider the consequences of their actions. They don't evaluate if the person has a weapon, a child, or a dog. Gun ownership from my perspective only increases the likelyhood that one of those weapons is going to fire.
  • seanburns89 on 02 Sep 19
     
    Gun control is a difficult topic to discuss. More gun control laws will not end shootings. On both sides of the spectrum, there are pros and cons to more or less gun control laws.

    This website states the opinions of those who support physician assisted suicide as well as those who oppose it. This is a social justice issue because a patient who is very ill and suffering should have the right to physician assisted suicide.
  • saxonkuncis on 08 Sep 18
     
    This is something only me and my close friends can really talk about! In my opinion i believe yes but maybe rules should be added like approval from the family or a doctors approval.
  • kay2152202 on 01 Sep 19
     
    I have also found this topic interesting and very controversial. I have to say I'm on the fence here because as a healthcare worker, I do see some very sad situations within patients and their families. However, if someone is so sick to where they would want to end their life it is hard to say if they're in the right mind to make a decision like that.
  • chr2131264 on 02 Sep 19
     
    Physician Assisted suicide should be treated like abortion from my prospective. It should be heavily considered and heavily regulated and substantial counseling should go into leading up to the event itself. One thing to consider if you refuse someone to go out on their own terms, is they may find another way which may not result in a peacful passing for them.
  • seanburns89 on 02 Sep 19
     
    I think that this topic of Physician-Assisted Suicide takes the topic of suicide that we find extremely tragic and makes it okay. This idea of allowing people the choice to die with the assistance of a physician is just as tragic as people committing suicide.

  • and2181940 on 03 Sep 19
     
    If someone is very ill and there is nothing that anyone can do to help they should have the right end there own lives. It's horrible having to live long days, suffering and waiting for your life to end.

    Within the article, it has information on how an elementary school asked a child to remove his shirt. However, the most interesting part of the removal of the shirt is that the shirt was a US Marines shirt with guns on it. This action turned into a huge controversy because the shirt was supporting the nation rather than anything other than disrespecting it.
