People Changing

First off everybody changes whether its a little change or big change
some people change because good thing happen and some people
change because a bad thing happens. For example some bad things that
make people change there perspectives about things is when a love one passes.
get killed or a loved one gets sick it makes people want to do better as a change.

Countries Affairs

I think that the united states should not get involved in other country affairs.
I think that America should not get involved unless the other countries are involving the u.s plotting against them to harm or cause any damage to the u.s.
I think that some wars that we have had with other countries could have been avoided.
Somethings are better left alone.

Mind your Business

Have you ever jumped into someone else's business?Yes. If so, why? Because my lil brother was trying to start a fight with some neighbor and i was trying to prevent the altercation from happening.
Under what conditions/situations is it ok or even necessary for you to get involved in someone else's business?When you are trying to help someone or prevent something from happening that will help that person.
When should people mind their own business?Idk i cant say i guess when its not concerning that person or its nothing serious enough for that person to get in.

Money Problems

Are people actions driven by money?Most people actions are driven by money. People would do anything for money because money gets them what they need to survive and all the rest.
Does money lead to happiness?Yes money leads to happiness because money supports you it gets you anything you will need or would want. money leads to happiness.
Are the people that have money any better than those that don't? no there is no one better than anyone or on a higher level. everyone is created equal just because some one is more wealthier than someone doesn't make them better.
How do the wealthy get their money? they work harder than the average human.They might steal there money or someone loans it to that person.There is all kinds of ways to receive money.Was it their work or others work that makes them rich?yes some work harder than others and it pays off.
Is it the responsibility of those that have money to share with others?not necessarily. It would be kind and nice of them to do that but they do not have to.

I am a dog tent civil war gettysburg


Dear :viewer



Here I stand a Dog tent Gettysburg July 1863. Under me stands Soldiers and doctors. Here is were I witness the most sick and painful events. Sounds of loud screaming as if the pain is unbearable. These men have “the luck of Cain”. There it is the smell of rotted human body or animal. Watching over during this war I witness Amputation being performed or done. Arms legs, toes any limb or body part being separated form the human body. It is the most bloody and dangerous thing I have ever witnessed. My thoughts was this war is destroying the confederates. The tools they had used for amputation look like knives and swords, very sharp objects. These men were frightened by theses weapons and the pain they felt.






Sincerely: dog tent

Mcpherson woods civil war gettysburg


Dear: viewer


I am the McPherson woods. Day one of the battle between Union soldiers and a bunch of jonny’s both of the rivals had accouterments ready for war. Were I stand July 1, 1863 in the background standing strong witnessing the two armies began to collide in my town of Gettysburg. It was the most or largest amount of human soldiers left dead in my eyes. By the second day of this war most of both armies had assembled. Across the battlefield despite significant losses. The Union defenders held their lines dressed in homespun looking uniforms. On the third day of this battle as I watch from all angles they resume fighting Culp’s hill. Between 46,000 and 51,000 Americans lay dead in front of me. The smell of a dead cat or bad food. The blood scatters all over my fresh green leaves and blood pour into my soil.





Sincerely:

He got messed up I was good.that fight hurt our relationship worst than it was. I learned that fighting ain't the way.

unit 2, assignment 7

WHEN BREAKING THE LAW IS JUSTIFIED


There are several sources of law making. Our congress makes laws. Our state legislatures make laws, and our local governments make laws. If a law conflicts with the laws that have been created by our congress those laws have the most power. Laws are enforced by our court system.
During the civil rights movement, in certain parts of the country laws were created to keep different groups of citizens separated. Those laws were called “Jim Crow”. African Americans were not allowed to vote, they were not allowed to live in certain areas; they were not allowed to enjoy the simple pleasure of life. For example: There were restaurants that they could not eat in and there were other places were they were not allowed.
Since the laws were created to keep the races separated, African Americans broke the law on many occasions seeking equal opportunities. They formed sit-ins, protest marches, as well as boycotts to try and get the lawmakers to change the laws. They broke plenty of laws, but it was for all the right reasons.
Unjust laws even affected the Native Americans. Their land was taken away, and they were sent to live on reservations. In some states they were not allowed to leave the reservations. They could not mingle with the rest of the population. There were unjust laws that affected Jews in some countries as well. Laws that are unjust and cause harm to any person can justifiably be broken. Basic rights should be given to all citizens. Those rights are liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If those laws aren’t met, then the laws should be changed.

How can growing up be both exciting and painful?

How can growing up be both exciting and painful? Growing up can be exciting because of the activities that can be done, so much stuff to do that you could not do as a little kid. Like going out to the movies, parties, clubs and much more. I enjoy growing up because you learn more you get a better understanding of how things work. Growing up can also be painful because of the fights arguments, stress and a bunch of other things but life all together growing up equals out for me.

Breaking the law justified

Did the colonist have their natural rights? Yes after the British signed the treaty of paris
What actions did the colonist take to make their own government that would uphold their rights? They fought for their freedom/independence and rights took on the British causing the British to sign the treaty of Paris. Were the colonist justified in breaking the law? Yea I guess.

Common sense Pamphlet

That life for the colonist was rough. The British basically wanted to rule everything including the Americans. Common sense presented the American colonist with an argument for independence from British rule at the time when independence was still undecided. What surprised me was that the British actually tried to tell separate states that they cant have their independence.

PURPOSE OF GOVERNMENT

Defense: One of the five purposes of government is to defend the borders of the nation against foreign invasions.National Identity: Each and every nation is unique in its own way. Each nation has its own tradition and culture. It is said for a nation to exist, it must have an identity.Representation: A government represents the interest of the nation.Infrastructure: One of the main purposes of the government is to provide good infrastructure such as roads, bridges, drinking water, and electricity and communication networks.Social Welfare: Last but not the least, introducing social welfare programs to protect the interest of the minorities and also, to provide education and health care to the underprivileged class of the economy is one of the purposes of the government. 2. Yes. It is our government's job to fulfill these duties, so if they're not then we as a country have every right to demand that they do.

A well ordered family

What did I learn about those colonies is that the husband and wife have love each other no matter what.When one is sick the other haves to manifest care, tenderness, pity, and compassion, and afford all possible relief and succor. They say it is gods command and if they don't do it they would be doing the devils work. Its strict but I see nothing wrong with it.
What surprised me most about what i read was that when they quarrel or disagree, then they are doing the Devil's work.Everybody argues and disagree its normal its OK it shouldn't be considered the devils work.
Compare and Contrast from back then America and now. Well when you are married in America now is that there is no head in marriage,like back then the man is supposed to give orders to the wife and the haves to obey, thats sort of like slavery. Dont agree.

Immigration

I think people immigrate to other places such as the U.S for a better education, some for the wealth,money, some for the freedom that they have. If I was to move to another country it would be because of the economy. If the economy is good ill go there.
