Happy Sexual Assault Awareness Month - Evan Daane

Yes finally its here. The month you've all been waiting for. SEXUAL ASSAULT AWARENESS MONTH!!!! That's right boys and girls, its sexual assault awareness month. A whole month dedicated to sexual assault stories delivered to you by President Donald J. Trump. What more could you want? Look how these leftist pigs responded. “When I read Trump declared April, ‘National Sexual Assault Awareness Month’, I thought it was an April Fools joke,” CNN commentator Ana Navarro snarked on Twitter. This man is wrong. So is this reporter. He's fake news. “Grab Em By The Pussy Month will be in May,” - MSNBC anchor Christopher Hayes. All are fake news. Don't listen to them. Listen to Breitbart. We're right.


Irony my white male buttocks. Donald has never touched a woman other than his one of  his wives. He is pure. Blessed be he. He's just a man trying to help out this great nation by bringing a month to bring awareness to sexual assault. What a saint. All accusations of him being a sexual offender himself are fake. False. Wrong. Incorrect. All the leftist snowflakes need to get off their high horse and get some common sense.

How my Daughter Died from a Simple Case of Flu by Macey Kanaman 8th Period

     Summary: Gwen and Terry Zwanziger's daughter recently died from the flu. Her symptoms consisted of a sore throat and small fever. Many have died from the flu. There is even a group on Facebook that consists of these moms, labeled "Flu Moms". Terry eventually took their daughter, Shannon, to the clinic. The doctor had told them to let the flu "run its course". Fast forward 40 hours and Shannon is struggling to complete simple tasks such as even get into the bath. This is where Shannon died.


     Analysis: This is really shocking to me, I did not realize how many children died from the flu. This girl in particular even went to the doctor. It's extremely sad that this happened. I can only imagine how many died from the flu two hundred or three hundred years ago. I hope that in the future, we can prevent this from happening in more than just keeping your child home from school or getting the flu shot.

Lauren Brady P4 4/2/17 US Response to North Korean Threat

President Trump has stated that the US is prepared to handle the North Korean nuclear threat. Even if China refuses to help, the US will continue to block North Korean nuclear activity, including the many tests of ICMs. Trump is set to have meetings with Xi Jinping, the Chinese President, later this week. Those meetings will reveal whether China will cooperate with US efforts to stop North Korean attempts to build a nuclear arsenal, or if the US will have to work alone.

I am glad that the government is finally taking the North Korean threat as seriously as it deserves to be treated. Nuclear missiles are highly destructive, and thus, any hostile nation creating them needs to be reprimanded, even if it takes force, which the US's Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has expressed to the concerned South Korean government. The nuclear tests that North Korea has been conducting have grown bolder each test. Before long, they will have the capability of ICMs (long distance rockets with nuclear heads). It is time that we put a stop to this. The North Korean nuclear situation connects to the Cold War. Russia was developing ICMs and putting them in Cuba, which led to the Cuban Missile Crisis.

summery:One single branch of the U.S. government, the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), has collected more than $4 billion through civil forfeiture since 2007.Disturbingly, most of that money — $3.2 billion — was seized in cash without criminal charges or convictions, a report from the Inspector General at the U.S. Department of Justice found this week. The $3.2 billion figure does not include the value of cars, homes and other items the DEA took.The report – dubbed “The Review of the Department’s Oversight of Cash Seizure and Forfeiture” – found that reasons for the seizures included “traveling to or from a known source city for drug trafficking, purchasing a ticket within 24 hours of travel, purchasing a ticket for a long flight with an immediate return, purchasing a one-way ticket, and traveling without checked luggage.”Darpana Sheth, senior attorney at the Institute for Justice, told The Washington Post that the report “raises serious concerns that maybe the real purpose here is not to fight crime, but to seize and forfeit property.”Civil forfeiture is the controversial method whereby law enforcement officials can seize property they believe to be tied to drug trafficking, without going to trial or even pressing charges. (Listen to Off The Grid Radio’s in-depth report on it here.)Sheth said a criminal conviction should be required to seize money.


analysis: This crazy that they collected that much money and then didn't charge anyone for this. The amount of money that is coming in due to this is over the top and needs to be stoped.

Emily McDougal - Revolutionary Book Smuggled Out of North Korea

Summary: An author known solely as "Bandi" wrote a series of stories telling about the average life of a North Korean citizen. The book was titled "The Accusation: Forbidden Stories from Inside North Korea," and spoke of the lives of regular North Koreans and the awful hardships they face. The stories are fiction, but are said to be an accurate representation of what it is like to live under such oppression and lack of privacy. The book is said to expose the fact that many of these people live like slaves, as they are constantly monitored and controlled. A South Korean citizen by the name of Do Hee-youn heard about the manuscript, and agreed to help smuggle it over the border, a very dangerous task that could leave him in prison or beheaded if he was caught. He found a way to hide it between propaganda books that were being carried by Chinese tourists, and managed to sneak the 750 page manuscript into South Korea successfully. The book was published, and is now available in 19 languages.

Analysis: This article was written on April 2, 2017, by Paula Handcocks, to inform readers of the dangerous actions Do Hee-youn went through to deliver an important message to the rest of the world. I was blown away by this story when I first read about it, and I think it's amazing that someone would have the courage to risk everything to expose the terrible treatment North Korean citizens are experiencing. These people are living in scary circumstances and it's so important that their conditions are known.

Synthesis: The Accusation reminds me of Uncle Tom's Cabin, a story that exposed the awful living conditions of slaves in the 1800s.

Hannah Howell- SpaceX Plans to Send People to Space in 2018

Summary: SpaceX Company plans to send 2 people to the  circle the moon in 2018. They are paying a lot of money. The launch pad in Cape Canaveral, Florida is going to be used, which is the same launch pad that was used for the Apollo mission in 1972. "Like the Apollo astronauts before them, these individuals will travel into space carrying the hopes and dreams of all humankind, driven by the universal human spirit of exploration," SpaceX said in a blog post. "Next year is going to be a big year for carrying people to the space station and hopefully beyond." names of the soon-to-be space travellers have not been released yet.

Analysis: This is so cool. All throughout elementary my biggest dream was to become an astronaut because I was inspired by Neil Armstrong. I can synthesis this to the space movement when Kennedy was president. Russia was being too cool sending ppl into space so the U.S. had to beat them.

Brittney Delpey: Congress Just Allowed ISP's To LEGALLY Sell Your Browser History

So Congress just screwed us. A new law was passed by the House of Representatives after already passing the Senate that allows Internet Service Providers (ISP's) to sell your browsing history, and potentially personal information, to advertising and customer service companies. Its aim is to tear down policies that came during the Obama administration that would have required the permission of the consumer to allow this information to be tracked before ISP's to utilize the information for advertising purposes. While most of this information, while in the hands of ISP's, won't target and specific consumers and will remain mostly safe, as the information gets passed around, it becomes more vulnerable to hackers and identity thieves. This could lead to a mass collection of personal information, that if in the wrong hands, could lead to many problems for Americans.
