A recent article on Fox News called "Taking Liberties: Arrested for reading the Bible?" tells about a man named Mark Mackey arrested for trying to preach the word of Jesus Christ to his local neighborhood in California. As he preached before a crowd of people he then approached by a California state policeman, and immediately arrested. Mackey then said, "Folks, this is what the world is coming to." I personally think he shouldn't have been arrested because my mom goes out on the street and tells everyone about jesus christ and never arrested for it before. Also another reason I think this man shouldn't have been arrested is because of the first amendment which allows the freedom of speech. The man that arrested him had to be apart of another religion because there is no way you should be discriminated against for having a peaceful announcement to make. It is just common sense, no one was hurt, upset or even talked about against this man. Did this man make his preaching so exposing, no. Did he ever disrespect anyone, no. Did he make it seem like everyone else was inferior to his religion, no! So, why did he get arrested, for no apparent reason to me. He was just doing what he thought was right. That is just what I think, that's it.

Most Marriages under 30

The article explained that most babies born today are created by mother's unmarried and under the average  age of thirty. I personally do not care because the women can do whatever they want because they are grown and usually are over the age of 21. But I really do not understand why people are making a big about adults having unprotected sex. I know plenty of people that had a sucessful parenthood experience and they had kids before they were married.I like the fact that people are starting to be aware of all the babies being born to unmarried families but it really does not matter because again they are adults and they  can do what ever their heart desires. But on the other hand there are those traditional families that believe that marriage is the first key to starting a family. My mother said that I should get married before I start my   family. I really do not know what I am really going to do when I start a family, I might just wait to have kids and get married.I know one thing is for sure, I might wait until I am like thirty to start having kids, but  until then, I am going to stay protected, no doubt in my mind I am not going to change this descion. But  back  to the article, the scientists are full of tested information but what I do not understand is why they would take out the time to figure out this information? Why didn't they do a study on the average children being born by women at the age of 21 or something like that.

Photoshopped or not?

Photoshop is a computer program where flaws can be corrected, blemishes erased, thickness is thinned, and coloring is fixed. To me photoshopping is cool, I like it because it makes everything easier to look at and it creates better pictures. I also like the fact that photoshop is easy to access and it allows anyone to look good. I used photoshop to crop a picture I drew into a background and it looked great. I added shading and all sorts of innovative props that look like the picture was an ad on the internet. I enjoy using photoshop.
Then again, sometimes people make mistakes and errors and maybe you will see an extra hand, a prop out of place or something of that sort. I really do not understand why people photoshop sometimes, because people should just be left the way they were.
Also, if I were to photoshop something, I would not advertise it if it is a person, only cartoons or something. If I were to mess up it would look weird and unprofessional. Photoshoppping is cool and all but sometimes people get out of hand and try too much or do too much to a picture. I love photoshop because of the ability to crop and drop. If I fail a paper, I can photoshop it using the help of a scanner and I could give myself an A. Photoshop or not, the choice is yours

I'm a criminal and so are...

     So this is saying that we are all criminals because of our pety crimes and the people that do really big crimes get treated like crap so we should be considerate of them. To me, the people that these criminals hurt or abused think that these criminals can go to hell. Second, I really don't care because they should not have committed that crime in the first place so I could really care less about why or how they got to prison. THEY DESERVE TO BE THERE IN FIRST PLACE.
    Then on the other hand, there are those people who were innocent and do not deserve to be in prison and need to be released. My mom said that she could care less too about those in prison because they were idiots for trying to be all big and bad and ended up in the prison. But for real, I do not understand why she is saying people are criminals despite the fact that they did not get caught.
    Lastly, what about children? Are they criminals or are they just angels? What about the authorities? Are they criminals too because she is saying everyone is a criminals or what? I do not understand why she said that. Is she a criminal, to me this lady seems vague. But, I am not a criminal, I don't care what anyone says what I did, Im not a criminal.

Facebook is using you...

    Yesterday in class, I read and article that said that facebook makes money by using your personal information to give to spammers or advertisers to put on your page. I told my mother about this because she uses facebook all the time and she said these ads can fill someone's computer with viruses from all the people with bad network connections. I think that facebook can do facebook's thing because they will eventually go bankrupt possibly if this plan backfires.
    Also, then again I really do not acre at all because I do not like facebook like that and it is very boring. I only get on it to talk to people from long distance. Plus, the last time I like something was in eighth grade which maybe one and a half years ago. So, what reason would facebook have to put ads on my page, None. I guess facebook won't be making any more money from me anyway.
   Lastly, even if I do decide to like something I am pretty sure i am going to forget about it. But anyway I recently noticed that facebook now is trying to spam your email because my old yahoo account was loaded with facebook notifications. I really don't understand why facebook is being so difficult with their weird way to make money. To be honest, facebook is really using you.
