Racism and Gender Discrimination

Racism and gender believe it or not is still a problem today in our society, maybe not as big as the early 1900's but it's still around today. Everyday their is another person discriminated against because of their skin color or their gender, which by now I think should be over. Everyone is any equal, sure guys may be built stronger and faster, but girls can be to. Look at the girl body builder! Also when it comes to race, were all humanbeings and built the same way on the inside. Who cares if your lighter or darker or what your background and upbring are, we are all people just trying live our lives. We should have learned by now from history that it is not right to bring others down for who they are and how they were born. I think racism and gender discrimination is not having an open mind and being judgement and not living in the present world, where people can do almost anything about now. People just need to open their minds and hearts to new people and new things and not stay in the past because life is all about change and the new things that the world brings.

Dr.Strangelove

Well at first I didn't really like the movie, but the more I started to watch it, the more I get into it. I thought it was a really interesting and different movie then I am used to watching. I never really watched older movies like that, but I really got into it and thought it had some really funny humor. The humor was different then in todays society because in todays society all the humor is about sex and partying. So it was cool to watch a movie that wasn't all about the same stuff we watch today like falling in love, having sex, and partying. I also really liked how they developed the characters and how they talked and acted. My favorite was the general who kept arguing and getting frustrated with the president and chomping his gum. In the end I really loved the movie and how different it was, the humor, the characters, and the overall turn out of the movie.

The Freedom To Say What You Want

I think censorship is ridiculous because the first amendment allows the freedom of speech. Freedom of speech means people can say whatever they want just like anyone else can and have their own ideas. If someone doesn't like what someone has to say then don't listen. If someone doesn't like a book, song, poem, story, etc. then don't pay attention to it. Yes, everyone can have their opinion about things, and not everyones going to have the same opinion and that's okay. Having an opinion is a great thing because not everyone in the world gets that and that's what makes America so diverse.
Bringing someone down about their opinion or burning someones book in a furnance is not cool or right because that their right to freedom of speech. If someone doesn't like a book for example then don't read it, it's that simple! Don't take it away from students or other people in the community just because someone disagrees with. Yes, someone has every write to say if they don't like something and that's fine just don't ruin it for other people. And don't be over the top about it.
I think at times people take freedom of speech for granted and a lot of things are being censored. But I think that people should be able to speeck their minds without someone trying to stop them or censor them from their opinion or ideas.
