Every Day's Journey

As a 21 year old growing up in South Carolina where could you have gotten the idea of racist thoughts or racism embedded in your brain. You weren't born until 1994. People try to blame racism on every other race and brush the idea of racism under the rug like it does not exist. I hope this is enough proof to show many that racist people does still exist and racism is very much so alive.  We have to address these issues as they take place or before  it hits  the home base. Cutting it down before it gets a chance to emerge and become something that take more black lives. We want equality, we want people to be one, we want respect but as a black person you have to learn that wanting is good enough anymore. You have to demand the things that you need. Wanting is okay but demanding take it to another level. When you are demanding something you are ready to be proactive about what you are in need of. The confederate flag still flies high in South Carolina after this tragedy. N

Every country has their own laws as far as children and adults. Everyone also has their own opinion as far as disciplining their child. Many subjects are not being touched enough with many adults, but the question still remains what is the best way to discipline your child when they misbehave? How far is too far and when does it become child abuse? There is a limit for everything, but do many adults know when disciplining their child has gone too far? We were all children once and we went through the same phase that many children are going through now. How did your parent deal with you? Do you think that they dealt with you in the best way possible or do you feel that there should of being a limitation to how you were disciplined?

Abortion, a topic that is tabu to many has now become a major issue for our country the U.S.A.  There is a time and place for everything. When is it appropriate to have an abortion? Should this be a topic discussed in households? Should abortions be banned at 20 weeks? With 11 states already banding abortions at 20 weeks women rights are already limited. I am not one  to agree with having abortions unless it is extremely necessary. If it is an underaged teen, a young woman stuck at a cross road, a rape victim or health risk for the person carrying the child. It may not make it okay, but it does make it acceptable reasons. Granted there are people out there who just does not want more children that are having abortions, or what ever reasons they may have. I try not to be judgemental because we all sin differently. With 4 other states such as South Carolina, West Virginia, Oregon, New Mexico next with there votes for this band it put the country in a place to force the

                                                                    It is said that Al Sharpton was struggling to find people to go out to Washington DC on saturday to protest in On Pennsylvania Avenue. Un aware of approximately how man would show up he gave a rough draft number of several thousand.  Yet that did not stop protesters within other states to march. Many went out in their city to show that they support the cause or un-just police brutality. Color or religion was not an issue on this day, people gathered together for a cause in many different states such as Washington, New York, Boston, Chicago, and Oakland. Banners were carried that stated different phrases but the ones that were dominant was "Hands Up Don't Shoot" and "Black Lives Matter'' Protesters were all on the same page when it came to this issue. Not many feel that the cops are there to protect them anymore now they feel as if their lives are in danger when the police is around

                                                                    It is said that 28 year old in Webster NY has been charged with attempted murder. Suspect Alicia Gould and her boyfriend was said to be having a night together in a motel room, when an argument erupted between the two. The incident took place early Friday morning. "Officers" say while the boyfriend was taking a bath Gould threw an alarm clock radio in the bath tub in Attempt to electrocute him. Police the stated that the room's ground faulted went off stopping the electrical current from making its way through the water. She is being held with a bail of 20,000 in the Monroe County Jail.

                                                                Research shows that there were nearly 6,000 reported cases of sexual assault within the military for this year. That is precisely an 8% jump from the reports of last year. This information was announced by the Pentagon on Wednesday of last week. Considering the percentage of the previous year Military Officials think this is good news. 1 in 10 people reported any assaults are alleged rape two years ago, while this year 1 in 4 came forward with reports. The fact that more service members were able to come and report these incidents they feel as if the members are more trustworthy to the system.  My question is, Are they more trusting to the system or are they just tired of keeping it to themselves and they want to know that the system isn't going to let them down if they do report it? "Chuck Hagel: feels everyone actions will affect not only them, but also the ones around them. Actions can tear
