Here is another article about free speech in universities. Recently a fraternity at ASU held a party on Martin Luther King day that displayed behavior that is offensive to African Americans. Now that the school is planning on punishing them, people are wondering whether expulsion would be too severe and if any punishment would be infringing on the students' freedom of speech.

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.

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.

The Justice System definitely has the potential to be corrupt, or at the very least, can be biased. What happens when the judge hearing a case has a personal bias against an important characteristic of the case?

This article is eye opening, and really speaks to the power which corruption has, or possibly the corruption which power brings. This is just a small instance in cases where abuse of power and nepotism can really dismantle government. I fear our two party system absolutely fosters this type of behavior, and certainly not to make it political in any sense: it is frightening to understand the possibility. Great article.

I definitely agree with this. There is absolutely corrupt justice. Money talks in this world and that is the sad thing.

This article targets those who deny the existence of climate change, despite the fact that Texas is experiencing a hurricane. It explains the conditions needed in order for a hurricane to occur and relates them back to a rise in temperature over the years, which supports the realty that is climate change. The article discusses a fair amount of politics, suggesting a unity between parties in order to acknowledge and prepare for what nature has in store, as NASA had predicted a hurricane in Houston some time ago.

This article is current and it really challenges the idea of climate change. It is scary to think that these hurricanes are going to get worse. It provides great points to how climate change is getting worse, and how it will continue to increase the amount of hurricanes.

This article is very interesting. I can't help but think about how bad the other two hurricanes heading towards the U.S. and neighboring countries are going to be.
