WEEK 10

So this story is about a Rick Santorum rally. But at this rally, there were two men- Timothy and Ben who decided to kiss each other. They did this in front of the entire crowd. The crowd soon there after began booing them, and chanting "USA." After this little fiasco, they were asked to leave the rally-more like kicked out.

My view on this is more power to them. They obviously have something that they want heard, so they should be able to get it out there. I am so happy for them to be this brave about their sexuality, especially is front of such an anti-gay crowd. You see, I've never fully been able to understand why people worry so much about what other people do, especially when it in no way affects them. People just need to back off and let people do what they want to do. They're not hurting or bothering you, so shut your face.

week 9

This video is one that just recently came out and has have about 40 million hits within the past four days. What it is about is trying to bring awareness to this man's horrible war crimes. His name is Joseph Kony. He kid napes children, takes them hostage, forces them to kill their parents, and then makes them either child soldiers or sex slaves. He is the number one international war criminal. This video is about how we are trying to stop him, and by doing so, we will help so many children.  

My opinion on this is that this is an amazing organization. By stopping Kony, we would be saving so many lives. I think that what this man is doing is absolutely amazing and I think that he should absolutely be praised because of it. I plan to help this cause as well.
