Current Evevnts

What I think about this weeks current events is that its pretty sad that this problem still exists. We, the US, should have had this problem under control a long time ago but that's just my opinion.


I feel like because we are still allowing these guns to circulate, we are giving these bad people a ticket to kill whenever they want. This saddens me.


The fact that so many people are being killed by these assault weapons should be more of a reason for them to get banned for good. I hope that they pass a law real soon. These guns should only be used by people who are protecting us, not killing us.

American, 88, freed after 2 months in Mexican jail

There was a man named Edward Chrisman who is 88 years old and he was riding with his grandson to Mexico to go to the dentist when they got arrested. The police was looking for Edward's grandson only but the police put Edward and his grandson in jail. Gary Chrisman Jr. who is 40 years old took pictures of a lady's teenage daughter when she did not want him to and the lady got mad and called the police on him.

Edward started getting very sick when he was in jail and his family was very worried about his health. Their family spent a lot of money trying to have attorneys get Edward and Gary out of the Mexico jail, but it took them two months to get Edward out. Gary is still in the Mexico jail waiting for the judge to let him out.

I chose this current event because of the grandfather being 88 years old and going to jail. He should never gone to jail because he did not do anything wrong.

ROSA PARKS

Mrs. Rosa Parks was a black lady who lived during a time when black people were not treated the same as white people. The black people had to use separate bathrooms and ride in the back of the bus because white people were the only ones who could ride in the front of the bus. One day Mrs. Rosa Parks was waiting on the bus and decided that she did not want to sit in the back of the bus anymore. When she got on the bus she did not go to the back of the bus but she sat in the front where the white people would sit.

On December 1, 1955, Mrs. Parks stood up for her Civil Rights and other people joined her. Mrs. Parks became famous for standing up for her rights. After that Mrs. Parks met with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and they started Montgomery Improvement Association. Then other black people joined Mrs. Parks and stop riding the buses for 382 days. The bus company decided to let the black people ride on the bus and sit wherever they wanted to sit.

LOVE VS SELFISHNESS

GIVING TO OTHERS BASIC NEEDS WITHOUT HAVING AS MY MOTIVE PERSONAL REWARD.

What I think this character clue means is to give someone a gift and not expect anything back from them.

Example: If I got a brand new puppy for Christmas and my brother and sister did not get a puppy instead of me teasing them the best thing for me to do would be to share it with them and not brag about it.

A bad example would be for me to brag about my new puppy that I got for Christmas and just rub it in their faces and say ha!ha!ha!. That would set a bad example for my sister and brother.

God and my parents would want me to share my new puppy with my brother and sister and NOT RUB IT IN THEIR FACES. I SHOULD LEARN TO SHARE WITHOUT EXPECTING ANYTHING IN RETURN BECAUSE THAT WILL MAKE GOD HAPPY.

THE END
