As Cher Horowitz would say, “You see how picky I am about my shoes, and those only go on my feet.” If Clueless took place in 2017 NYC, then this outfit would have been Cher’s iconic, yellow, plaid skirt-suit ensemble. This look has transcended along the ages. Plaid never goes out of style, and neither does our lookbook! Christine of Louis Reign has shared with us that, “My style is edgy with a twist.…
Has anyone ever wondered, what will I get out of this fight? No one really does until after, because in that split second there becomes a problem and there is no time to think. In The Outsiders that thought wasn't brought up either. In the end fighting was not worth the result they got. Bob died because of fighting, Ponyboy got brain damage and is failing classes, and pressure from fighting was a reason that Dally committed suicide.…
Parents and children have a lot of details to keep track of during back-to-school time: School clothes, textbooks and supplies, classroom schedules, immunizations and sports physicals. Teachers have their own backto school paperwork to tackle. This week, all public schoolteachers in Indiana are receiving an important legal notice from my office that they should read and that parents and schoolchildren also should be aware of. The legal notice reminds teachers of Indiana’s Teacher Protection Act, passed by the Indiana General Assembly in 2009.…

To begin, the pre-school to prison pipeline is a gateway that directs black children to be incarcerated in the justice system. Schools reinforce harsh tactics to punish black children, as a method of teaching them discipline. According to the U.S. Department of Education Office for Civil Rights, “African-American students are three and a half times more likely than their white classmates to be suspended or expelled” (“The School-to-Prison”, Para 9). Educators have biased views towards black preschoolers, treating them as less human than whites, giving black children a discriminatory disadvantage. This includes out of school suspensions for a small misdemeanors.…
People boycott for many reasons. They may stand up because of what they believe in or think in. Well boycott is pretty much for what you stand up for in what you think is right or wrong. Does not really matter what it is but it is your decision.…
Sports allow individuals to vent desires and stresses that are restrained in everyday life, and it is for that motive that sports are related with conduct and behaviour that is rougher and more violent than other channels and aspects of social life. The short film documentary Fight Church highlights this message, that violence can be justified in the name of religion and Christ. Some characters in this short film were Christians first, then become fighters, and some are the other way around. “Everything we do is about God. Faith is saturated in what we do,” says the main character Paul Burress, a chaplain and fight coach at Victory Baptist Church in Rochester.…
to the future of preventing and reducing the number of violent crimes happening at school. 2. Enacting Gun-Free school zones. This legislation was enacted in 1994 which mandates a minimum of one-year expulsion from school for possessing a firearm or weapon on school property. Stiffer penalties for repeat offender of lesser violent offenses such as fighting, bullying or discrimination need to be enforced.…
The implementation of the zero tolerance policy seems to be complicated by school administrators’ fear of violence, resulting in exorbitant suspensions and expulsions of students committing minor infractions against school policy. As these negative incidents involving unjustified suspensions of students increase, the drop-out and failure rates will continue to increase as well. However, the incidence of violence and general disobedience in schools must be addressed. Zero tolerance, if focused specifically on verified violent plans or acts, could be an effective policy for dealing with violent behavior and preventing some violence before it occurs.…
For many years the question has been whether or not fighting should be allowed in hockey. The issue is complex and impactful, and it can be explained by people opposed to fighting, people in favor of fighting, people who work as executives in leagues with fighting, people who make a living by fighting, and stats that deal with fighting. When discussing an issue such as fighting and its place…

SEA: Weapons within the school With the recent and well-known school shootings that have shocked our nation, we have witnessed a perceived increase in school violence. This increase can partially be attributed to the rise in violence in the community in general. While a school has no influence on the disciplinary action taken on adult citizens, schools can help maintain the safety and well being of their students by disciplining those who are violent or who threaten violence. Zero tolerance policies are created with the best interest of the majority in mind yet; they can propagate collateral damage that may lead to more problems for all stakeholders involved, as well as neglect the rights of the offender.…
Violence in society is increasing dramatically and not only is it out in the streets, but it’s in the school systems as well. However, school violence has been becoming more and more of a problem all over the nation in the past several years. School violence needs to stop because no one should be afraid to go to school without feeling like it’ll be their last day. There’s a 2006 study saying that public school incidents have increased from a 71 percent to an 81 percent in a 5-year period. Not only is school violence affecting children, but it affects teachers as well.…
Wild Horses running Rampant Though it seems ruthless to kill the mustang horses, it is better to slaughter some of them because there is so much overpopulation. Many Mustang's daily are running wild in the desert and the number of horses are gradually getting bigger. " In Nevada, home to half the remaining wild horse herds, ranchers call mustang slaughter a humane solution to overpopulation. “If I was a horse and had the choice of dying of old age standing in some government corral or being harvested, I’d choose the latter,” said J.J. Goicoechea, the president of the Nevada Cattlemen’s Assn. " The horses are better being slaughtered then being locked up in a corral the rest of it life since there are so many of them.…
I think that peaceful resistance to the law positively and negatively impacts on a free society because everyone will think it's okay to disobey the law no matter what happens to them afterwards. I also think that our generation is mess up because our society thinks that everyone that is white or not black is against us and that's not true. From my point of view I saw a white police officer saves a African American life from a burning building so then I knew that every white person is not against us some of them are with us. It impacts on us positively because we may look at it like all this race's stuff happen years ago and let it go and then some of may even help poor white people out because I see whit people help black poor people out.…
