ReplyDeleteCody- I agree with you. I don't think we should have attacked Libya.
This 10th grader Casey hanes was bullied for years and he finally snapped. He picked up the kid that was bullying him and threw him to the ground. I think that he did what he did in self defense.
ReplyDeleteI don't think we should have attacked Libya, we already have another war to fight
Japans reactors are going to take longer to repair than expected. There was more damage than thought.
Taylor Anderson, who was an american teaching in Japan, was found dead in Japan at age 24. She rode home on her bike when the earthquake hit, she was dedicated to her job.
I think Casey Heynes was standing up for himself and said he had enough of being bullied.

ReplyDeleteScientist think there might be a massive earthquake coming in California. They think this because there has been a earthquake in all the other corners of the pacific plate. And the only corner left is the San Andreas fault.
Kayla- I agree that Casey Heynes was using self defense. After being bullied by that many years, he snapped. He shouldn't have seriously hurt the kid who bullied him. He should've talked to someone first, but we was just standing up for himself.
ReplyDeleteAlan- I don't think that Donald Trump should race in the Indy 500.
I don't think that casry should of used that much force . I don't think Trump should be advertised any more .

Every citizen is over 45,000 dollars in debt.
ReplyDeleteOur total debt is over 14 trillion dollars.
Gerdes- Im glad to see somebody keeps track of Trump.
Tyler- I have seen some stuff about people making fake accounts on facebook too.
I understand why the boy had enough and decided to do something to finally stand up for himself, but throwing him on the ground like that could've seriously injured or killed the other boy and he would've been responsible for that. I think he shouldn't have used so much force.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if we should be in Libya or not because I'm not sure of the government's motives. I understand that the country is having problems but our country's motives aren't clear and we have a lot of other things to deal with so I don't know if they really need us to get involved when there's other countries helping out already.
a fighter plane crashes in Lybia and the pilots are now safe

He also said that the minister has physically abused his wife and kids. The younger Phelps severed ties with his family on his 18th birthday and said he hasn't had contact with his father in three decades.
No, I don't think that we should have started this and I think that we are there for the oil.
I think that Casey Haynes was just pushed to his limit because he was tired of being bothered. The other boy should have let him be and he deserved it because he started it.
Casey Heynes through a boy on cement. The boy had swung at him and then Casey swung him around and slammed him on the cement. He had been bullied for years and just snapped, I think it was self defense, I wouldn't take being hit in the face.

1.Congress is debating on budget cuts and spending limits. They are wondering if they should do it now or wait until the economy is better.
ReplyDelete2. Car prices are expected to rise as an effect of Japan's earthqueake and violence in Libya.
I think we should go to Libya because the people there need our help. We also need their oil, so that's a good reason to go over.
I think that Casey Heynes had a right to do that to the kid because the kid was punching him and he had enough of bullying. It will teach that kid never to bully him again.
Melanie- I agree because Casey could have seriously injured the boy that he was hurting even though the boy was asking for it.
ReplyDeleteBrad- The pilots are out safely now and back to the U.S.
Cassie - I agree with the Casey Heynes thing, the little kid knew there could be consequences so why push him?
ReplyDeleteMelanie - That is so sad! and an inspirational story.
Cassie- I agree with Nate because I wouldn't want a father to do that.
ReplyDeleteAlyssa- That's horrible that building burnt down.

ReplyDelete2. Our debt keeps rising. Were over 14 trillion now.
Blake-thats alot a debt for one person

-We have the right to be in there. We are doing this to help the citizens. They wanted us to come help so we are and if we get oil in return good deal. This will probly last along time tell we get what we want.
-Casey did what he should do. He was right in every way. If he would of killed the kid it was the other kids fault. Casey had a right to stand up for him self

ReplyDelete2. I agree with Travis, we shouldn't have attacked Libia. We are already involved with too much. I also agree with Jordan, the kid had the right to defend himself.
3. We have the right, but I think it's dumb that we are over there. We are just spending money that we don't have. Who knows how long we will have troops over there now.
4. I think Casey had the right to fight back. He has been bullied for years, but hasn't done a thing about it until now.
1.The radiation from japan may have reached to the US shore but not enough to cause harm.
ReplyDelete2. Gas prices are expected to rise as an effect of Japan's earthqueake and violence in Libya.
I don't think we should have bombed libya. We are now there to help out which is a good reason and oil.

I think that its ok that we are attacking Lybia. Some compare the Cadafi's actions to the Holocaust. I think that it is definitely reasonable to fight to prevent another genocide.
I think that Casey the Punisher's action were totally justified. He was being punched repeatedly and the kid got what he deserved. He should stick up for himself.
1.Taylor Anderson was a 24 year old teacher who was teaching in Japan when the tsunami hit. She did not survive. She was teaching the people of japan English.
ReplyDelete2. There was a loud explosion in Jerusalem during the rush hour. There was more than 50 people injured and 1 person died.
I can't believe that a child would bring something like that to school and give it out.
I think Casey was right for fighting back after being bullied for so long.
Melanie- that is a great story, but I think it would be weird to look like a dead person..
ReplyDeleteKayla- i think that Japan is suffering and that it would be horrible if people had radiation poisoning.
