displayed in public view, does in fact fall under free speech. Even though it disconcerts some of the student body, it cannot be outlawed, but just because it’s a right doesn’t mean that its okay to take it to an offensive level. Bok states “The fact that speech is protected under the First Amendment does not necessarily mean that it is right, proper, or civil” (par. 4).

items or piece of culture in question that are being appropriated. There are so many Halloween costumes out these days people can literally be anything they want from a fairy to witch, to a vampire or a princess.

his best friend has been in the same situation. Hope is the only one in his life who told him it was wrong, that it isn’t “real love”. Hope is the only one with her head on straight and was right in saying that the relationship between Augusten and Bookman isn’t real love and that it’s not right. However, it’s hard to blame Augusten for not understanding the inappropriateness of the age difference between him and Bookman. If everyone else is doing it, it doesn’t seem…

the pursuit of happiness it is against life and no government should be allowed to take that away from you. Euthanasia is just assisted suicide that people find okay but in real life isn't. Today's day in age is so messed up that parents are putting into the minds of their children that to kill someone is okay. People today have the right to live and just because you have cancer that may not be curable now and scientists are still looking for cures. This doesn't mean that just because you are…

Lying is never okay because it gets you into more trouble. Some people think it is okay because they done it forever. A lot of people believed that lying is the solution to everything. Parents think that kids should tell the truth and take the their punishment really well. Also they have to be honest or they will get into a lot of trouble and that is not a good thing. I think kids should tell the truth no matter how much trouble they get into. First, lying is not okay because you not…

placing it on the sofa with the other ones. “It’s not illegal to have guns. No one’s fired these in more than fifty years.

racism measurements is bullying. If kids are punished the right way when being racist, they would stop since they won't want to get in trouble again, they will learn from their mistakes and not bully people in the future. For example, private and charter schools usually have less bullying since the schools take the right measures when there is bullying in the school, they call…

advoid my feelings for so long that I need to share them with someone so that they know the truth. I'm hurt . very bad. I try to hide it with a smile and laughter, and I'm pretty sure everyone buys it. I don't want anyone to know that I'm hurting right now. because I don't want people to treat me differently . however a little sympathy would be much appreciated. I'm still fragile. the wound is still fresh since it has only been 3 weeks since the day it happened. I keep replaying the memories…

working on for the next few weeks, and if you don't do it it'll really mess up your grades.” Noooo! Come on man, my day was going -- well, not great because there's still school, but still okay . Alright, all I have to do is make up some boring story about some stupid topic. “Oh, and I'm not giving you a topic.” What! Okay then, I'll just make up a weird sci fi story about...ummm...Oh! Some jerk who breaks the fourth wall and has to get back to his dimension, but also changes his jerky ways cuz…
