Details on State Prayer in Public School Laws - FindLaw - 2 views

  •  
    Prayer has been a topic of some controversy with the public school systems in America for over 50 years, it has been federally banned other than silent prayers, and in some states it has been banned all together. This is a disgusting violation of Americans first amendment right, as well as our inalienable rights as human of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, for some prayer is a pursuit of happiness. To ban ones ability to pray in school, while they are being taught as if God were not real, is a outrageous violation of the rights of not just Christians, but Islamic folk, and people of Jewish decent. Prayer offers peace, and a hope for salvation, and a denial of such ability in a place where most students attend is an outrageous violation of our rights as humans, and as Americans.

    A constitutional right of all citizens is the freedom of religion, and praying in schools is a way of exercising that right. If praying is banned in public education, then the constitutional right to practice religion is being infringed upon.
  •  
    While religious freedoms are very important in our country we need to look at what the purpose of school is. In my opinion, schools are not morally obligated but factually obligated. This article states that you must look at the religious aspect to understand history which I completely agree. I do not remember my classes removing religious aspects from the curriculum. Is this prevalent nowadays?
  •  
    I am on the fence with this topic. I think that all Americans should have the right to pray in school but on the other hand I feel that it may be disrespectful to the third party. This is a tough topic for all people weather they are religious or not.
  •  
    America is the land of opportunity and freedom. We have the freedom to follow any religion. I think that banning prayer in schools is something that takes away from that right. If it's pray is part of the religion, why is it frowned upon and seen as disrespectful? Our country should respect and go for what it stands for.

    This link shows everything wrong with our world right now. I am constantly outraged by the wage gap, and how employers are allowed to get away with it. It blows my mind that so many people claim that men and women are CURRENTLY treated the same way, when clearly they are not. p.s i actually book marked this link on my computer, that way i can send it to anyone who disagrees.
  •  
    This has been an ongoing issue for us women since day one. inequality in employment, wages and opportunities is extremely unjust. I think the more its brought to the surface and the more we show we still haven't forgotten, we will eventually get somewhere. Just like when we all came together for women's rights on inauguration day :)
  •  
    Women's right are changing. Women's need equal opportunities in workplace and education. This link is showing us how unfair is society with females. Hopefully in the future everybody is going to be equal and we will have the same opportunities.
  •  
    It seems that for all of the changes that have been made, a lot still needs to be done. There is no excuse for our country or any other country to still be dealing with unequal rights for women. The violence is disgusting, as well as discrimination and unequal pay. Thank you for sharing.
  •  
    As a woman, I believe we have definitely come a long way. However, I believe we are not completely equal to males yet, which we should be. More changes need to be done.
  •  
    The fact that women and other people in our country and other countries have to even fight to be equal is disgusting. We are all the same and deserve to be treated the same. The fight must continue.
  •  
    It is crazy to think that in 2017 that we as humans can't treat one another the same as you would want to be treated yourself. I am not a woman but I do have a wife and daughter that I would hate/despise if they were treated any less than myself for any reason.

Employers discriminating against smokers - 1 views

  •  
    People are outraged at how employers are now not hiring qualified candidates because of there personal habits which contain any form of tobacco. Not only are employers not allowing it on there property but requiring employees to pass urine tests in order to prove they are living a more healthy lifestyle which includes being a non-smoker. Where will the line be drawn and how far will employers be able to tip toe towards the infringing on the Americans Civil rights.

Not only are candidates outraged but Facebook has also disagreed with the practice ethically and legally.

Tesla Model 3 unplugged by "concerned resident" over fears of battery "blow up" - 1 views

  •  
    This article is written by an independent journalist who is clearly biased towards supporting the company Tesla. The author writes a scathing critique of someone who unplugged another person's Tesla out of fear of a battery fire or explosion. While the author does have data to back his claims and his critique seems to be well placed, readers should be wary of his flippant attitude concerning the overcharging of electric vehicles.
  •  
    I agree with your observation of the clear bias towards partisanship of Tesla's in the article, given that the website host name is "Teslarati". It seems as though this article is more than anything akin to a click-bait feed as its goal is to incite readers to feel frustration and outrage at whomever put the sign on the tesla pictured, although a few decent points are made throughout the article about the positive aspects of Tesla vehicles its difficult to take it seriously as a source of information with the tone of the article being slightly juvenile and the authors Biography being a testament to his endearment for Elon Musk.
