Health Fair

             On the 12th of April Parkway West High School had an health day. On this health day two senior girls came to our class and presented a PowerPoint for their senior project. The seniors names are Sierra Blagmon and Shayira Farmer. The two seniors both presented their PowerPoint on the cons of abortion. The girls both shared information about abortion. For example 1.2 million babies are killed a year from abortion, and that 2000 is when it was the highest point of abortion. Also everyday, over 3,300 babies die from abortion in the US, that's 137 per hour. Every 23 seconds a baby is killed by abortion in the US. In Shayira's PowerPoint she talked about how she went to the Youth Empowerment Program which is a good program fro teenagers she said.
           I believe that abortion is evil because u are killing a human for no reason which is very wrong. I also believe that abortion can be very harmful to individual as well emotional and physical, because that person might regret doing something like that that will bother them for a long while.

100 Tornadoes

         Today I read an article called "100 Tornadoes in 24 Hours, but Plenty of Notice"by Manny Fernandez. Based on the article it said that more than 100 tornadoes in 24 hours over a stretch of the Plains states tossed vehicles and ripped through homes. It also said that it drove families to their basements and whipped debris across small towns throughout the Midwest. A few people were killed and injured. There was 29 injured people including children and five deaths. Sam Brownback Governer of Kansas said that after giving out warning for almost two days some people actually took the warnings very seriously and found somewhere to go or went in an low level of their homes.
      I believe that this was a very tragic situation and I am very sorry for the lives that were lost over this accident. But I think that if every one took the warning extremely important there might have bin less people dead and more people alive right now.

5 Arrested for Forcing High School Girls To Be Prostitutes

          Today I read an article called "5 Arrested, Accused of Forcing High School Girls To be Prostitutes" at CNN News. In this article it said that in Northern Virginia On Thursday police arrested a violent gang's ringleader and four others on charges of forcing high school girls to be prostitutes. The ringleader was identified in court documents as Justin Strom, 26, of Lorton, Virginia a suburb of Washington. It also said that Strom and his associates recruited high schools girls to work for them as prostitutes and vowed violence if they tried to leave. After investigating authorities identified that at least 10 high school girls between 16 and 18 year old were recruited.

       I think that these guys need to stay in jail for a long time because what they are doing is not a good thing and they are hurting these young teenage girls by doing this to them. The other reason why I think they should stay in jail is because if they were set free they would go back and do the same thing over again and instead of recruiting 10 they would have a lot more high schools girls. And staying in jail can also help them realize what they had done wrong and change.
