Say What???
"His parents, James and Arlene Holmes, sat silently at the front of the courtroom and left without comment" This shows how unwanted he is when even his own parents aren't trying to defend him. They obviously know there son is a freak and they regret not sending him away sooner because half of this is there fault. "Prosecutors laid out a case that Holmes methodically planned the shooting for months, amassing an arsenal and elaborately booby-trapping his apartment to kill anyone who tried to enter." You cannot be totally out of your mind if you can bobby trap yourself and not kill yourself. There are people who have degrees for that kind of stuff. What I want to know is why he did what he did? what did he gain out of it all? I feel he did it for attention because he was tired of being overlooked.

Hoorah
After reading a article on fox news.com titled "Father wants school dress code changed after son asked to remove Marines T-shirt.
"My son is very proud of the Marines""so he wars it with pride."
This kid is showing his respect by supporting men and women who fight for his freedom. How can you suspend someone that is being patriotic to his country. It makes me feel as if the world has no loyalty. What's going on in this world....
"The administration and school handbook agree the shirt is not a violation of the dress code." So now its narrowed down to one teacher that is very disrespectful to there country. I feel she should be fired for there doing. I mean a man got fired for saving his boss bit a person can disrespect the country and its okay?! What is wrong with our country..

Frogger
In the article the man was blaming the government for abandoning him because he got out three years early so he has no healthcare benefits. He stated that when he asked if he our his family would get moved to a different healthcare on the militarys pay the executive chairman of the Center for Investigative Reporting. “You’re out of the service, your coverage is over. Thanks for your sixteen years. Go f--- yourself.” First off you do not ever insult a veteran he risked his life for your freedom. Second I'm certain that americans would pay for this mans health care. he deserves it all the other lazy bums who draw it and never work a day in there lives should be told that statement not him. Honestly that should be considered treason. just because a man quits a little while before retirement does not give you the right to bash him.
The SEALs reasoning for leaving was because "I wanted to see my children graduate and get married." After sixteen years of being away or in other countrys the kids never see him. I feel his decision was right. Every child needs a father, espically at graduation or when they are getting married. I feel as if the chairman is in the wrong here what the heck does he do beside cower behind a desk because he's to spineless to actually defend his country.
I feel as a whole that the men who served for this nation should be respected more than stupid celebrities. Our country has lost that respect. These men go through hell on earth. the SEAL said "His forehead was gruesome. It was split open in the shape of a V. I could see his brains spilling out over his face." This was what the soldier said Bin Laden looked like after he was killed.These brave men and women see this every day and it scars them, they come back messed up and are never the same because of what theyv'e seen. I thinks respect is the least we could do if not more.

NFL Sued??
Recently I read and article about a man Junior Seau who was a defensive linemen in the NFL.
the man killed himself and they found he had CTE a disease found common among dead players. The disease is caused from repeatedly taking hard hits to your head. Junior's family then sued the Nfl and riddell a helment making company. While the death of this man is tragic it is a eye opener to the dangers of the NFL.
"More than 1,500 former NFL players are suing the NFL, alleging the league hid the dangers of concussions from them". As a player myself I've learned about the dangers of concussions. Even at a young age you are taught, so the fact these NFL players still haven't learned shows that they don't deserve to be playing. When you go to a NFL team you give your body top them knowing the risk so sorry guys yall are stupid go home.
"Not everyone who is exposed to repeated head trauma would develop the disease, experts say."
See the fact that only certain players get it should make it to where you dont sue. if Ridell or thje NFL had truly made a mistake dont you think the numbers would be far greater. This in my opinion is a act from the Seau family to bum off more money from the NFL.
Overall this story was a piece of crap and this should have never happened. the NFL is not responible for you. If you go crazy and kill yourself its your fault.

Hang Em' High
One reason they should be executed is because it cost around 100,000 dollars in taxpayers money to help maintain and feed only one prisioner. Just think if all the murderers were executed how much would that save? I mean being 16 trillion in the hole you'd think they would do anything to save money. While some people have a valid argument by saying that injections cost more than paing for the prisioners, but here's how you fix that loop hole, you go to the local hardware store and buy a rope for 10 dollars and reuse that sucker. If that method is unethical to you soft people you can buy a .22 bullet for 25 cents and kill them. Either way there are cheaper options.
If we executed murderers not only would it save money but it would save lives as well. If you don't execute them and they escape they could kill more people which could have been prevented had they been killed. Also if we killed murderers the crime rate would all but plummet whis would be great because it is very high in America today.
So I tip my hat of to the government of Texas for ridding the world of that useless monster and i hope other states follow in there footsteps later on down the road.

Racism and Bullying
Bullying is a very tochy subject because at least once in your life you bullied, were bullied or knew someone who was bullied. Like yesterday when a black student at Wynne was assaulted and put in a noose by 5 white kids on his own team. The boy stated "someone came behind him and picked him up and that's when another boy put a rope around his neck." Yes boys fight but it comes to a point were there has to be a line drawn in the sand. What those boys did was very disrespectful to not only the boy but also to the town of Wynne and yes the do need to be expelled for there actions.
I guess what I'm trying to say is bullying is wrong but its ten times worse once you make it racial. What was done was wrong and it shouldnt matter if they were 14 they should still be punished for racism which is 30+ days in the pen. Also the parents are at fault as well. If we are going to make America a bully free place everyone has to take there part to stop it.
