Who is at Risk from Unvaccinated Kids - 0 views

  •  
    Original: Younger children are also at risk for polio, rubella, and mumps until they are old enough to be vaccinated. Considering that there are about 4,000,000 births a year in the United States, that puts a lot of infants at risk for measles, pertussis, and other vaccine-preventable diseases. For measles, as kids aren't fully protected until they get their second dose of the MMR vaccine when they are about 4-years-old, that means an additional 12,000,000 toddlers and preschoolers are potentially at risk. Paraphrase: Parents who choose not to vaccinate their children are putting other young children who are not old enough to be vaccinated in danger of getting polio, mumps, and rubella. In the United States, there are around four million births every year. Taking this into consideration that means infants everywhere are being put at risk for many vaccine-preventable diseases every day. In addition, twelve million children under the age of four are not completely protected from measles until they get there second MMR immunization at about the age of four years old.

Defunding police: What it means and what it could look like - CNN - 5 views

  •  
    Defunding the Police Departments does not mean disbanding law enforcement. Excess funds can be distributed to other services (education, healthcare, housing, ect.)
  • ...6 more comments...
  •  
    Defunding the police and distributing that money to further establish other parts of the government can honestly change so much and for the better as well.
  •  
    this article gives a better understanding to what "defund the police" really means. By putting funds into other areas that need it, there can be a lot of good done in America.
  •  
    this article is very helpful in the way that most people think that defunding the police means disbandment when really it is just taking the extra funds and putting in other necessary services.
  •  
    Great article to explain the common misconceptions on what it means to defund the police. The positive to this is the benefits other sectors of the government would have such as education.
  •  
    I agree it does not mean to get rid of the police. but overly funding a facility while ignoring schools and healthcare systems is not okay either.
  •  
    This is a good, informative article. Other organizations need more funding, and I believe that funding them is only fair.
  •  
    This article really shows what it looks when the community doesn't feel safe and how the people are moving to make it safe and put money somewhere else.
  •  
    I'm glad that this article gives the information this country needs when talking about defunding the police. Many interpret that in the wrong way which has divided our country even more.

Federal Judge Urges Prosecutors to Put Arizona's 'Sheriff Joe' Behind Bars - 0 views

  •  
    Since 2007, the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) has accused Sheriff Joe of detaining Latinos unlawfully, in which he would regularly perform 'sweeps' in Hispanic neighborhoods. Since then, Sheriff Joe has ignored a court order for reported racial profiling and criminal contempt charges could be issued if prosecutors are willing.
  •  
    First of all, I can't believe that he is 84 now. I didn't know that. More importantly, I've never liked our sheriff and have heard a ton of nothing but bad things about him and especially his actions of being racist. This doesn't at all surprise me but I really doubt that he will be convicted. I guess we will see though! Thanks for sharing!!!

Teenagers, social media, and terrorism: a threat level hard to assess - 0 views

  •  
    This article discusses the controversy between freedom of speech and preventing terrorism. A high school students Facebook comments put him in court.
  •  
    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.

Drinking and Driving - 3 views

  •  
    Making the right decision some time means safe life's. Drinking and driving is one of the big mistakes that people make during their life's.
  • ...2 more comments...
  •  
    Drinking and driving is very common in today's society. I like this article because not only does it provide facts about faculties, but also provided a visual emotional touch while reading. People are effected everyday due to someone driving under the influence or while intoxicated. It's good we have things like Uber, taxi's, and buses that help lead away from driving drunk, which in return will lead to safer roads.
  •  
    It's still upsetting to me how much of a problem this is in society. It's not anything new yet it still hasn't been stopped and that needs to change.
  •  
    Drinking and driving is not only wrong, but its completely selfish. You are not only putting your life in danger, but you are also putting others in danger. There are many different routes you can take rather than just getting into your car intoxicated.
  •  
    Ugh, I hate that no matter how many times you can say to someone "please call me and ill pick you up" and they still choose to drive themselves home because they do not want to "bother" you. This is such a big issue in our society that everyone needs to learn to stop doing. I feel that Uber is helping in some way lately though!

Human trafficking survivor: I was raped 43,200 times - 0 views

  •  
    Mexico city has a town Tenancingo known for human trafficking. It's so close to home that it's time for more attention to be put toward human trafficking. Taking young girls as young as 12 is horrifying. There are young girls in the united states that deal with being trafficked as well. These are mothers, daughters, nieces, and people who don't need to be put through such a traumatizing event. When human trafficking is brought up corruption comes to mind as well. There comanly seem to be police, judges, and political figures within trafficking. These girls need help but it's hard to see where the help will come from.

Arizonans react to Trump's Immigration ban - 2 views

  •  
    This article describes President Trumps ban on immigration. It describes that President Trump put a temporary ban on seven Muslim countries. Not only are Muslims not allowed to enter the U.S. but U.S. citizens are not allowed to re-enter the United states from those 7 Muslim countries.
  • ...2 more comments...
  •  
    I posted a similar article that went into depth about a certain airport. I can't believe that it also banned U.S. citizens from re-entering as well. It really is mind blowing.
  •  
    This article is another one about the Immigration issue we are facing. Since he put this temporary ban, there are people who are here legally in this country trying to travel, but then get detained at the airport just because of where they are coming from. This is not okay. I find this infuriating.
  •  
    This whole scenario is mind-blowing and shows what kind of person he is. How can he sit there and deny U.S CITIZENS re-entry to their country?! Makes me sick how intolerant some people still are. I think about the world my daughters will have to grow up in and it scares me.
  •  
    Not trying to be rude or anything but Trump is obviously not try to have people actually like him as the new president. To ban people who have green cards from re-enrtering the U.S is very wrong.
