Opinion On Brawl

I think it's dumb how they got caught. If they are going to fight and commit crimes they should at least have a get-away car or something, that way they don't get caught like they did. Hopefully next time they decide to do that again, they're smart about it.

IMMIGRATION

I dont think it's right for immigration to try to keep people from Mexico from coming to Oregon. I think they should have the right to come to Oregon if they want to as long as they don't come down here to cause trouble. But if a family wants to come to Oregon to live a better life then I think they should have the right to. No matter what, they could make all these laws about immigration, but they can't stop and won't stop Mexicanos from coming to Oregon.

Touching Spirit Bear Book Report

The name of the book I read is called Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen. The book is about a kid named Cole who has anger problems and beats up a kid from school named Peter. Then Cole was sent to an island by himself. I thought the book was good because there's a lot of action, it's a thrilling book, and I also like it because it's one of those types of books where you just can't wait to see what's gonna happen next. Yes I would reccomend it to others. I would reccomend it to teens that are on probation because that way they can see that just because you dislike somebody doesn't mean you should take your anger out on them and hurt them, and instead he could have dealt with it in a better way.

One thing you don't know about me.

The one thing you don't know about me is that I been on probation for 6 years since I was 12. I've been on it a long time because i would always be causing trouble like getting in fights, go tagging, run from programs, and smoke too much weed. But then in August when I got locked up for running from a program and going tagging while I was on the run, I was sent to detention for 3 months.The judge had told me I was gonna go to macClaren until I was 21 and when I heard that I started taking things more seriously because I didn't wanna be locked up anymore. I was tired of it. But the good thing was that my mom hired a good attorney and he talked my probation officer out of sendin me to macClaren. So instead my probation officer just sent me to live with my sister because he knew it wasnt a good idea for me to move into the neighbor hood that my mom lives in.After I got out in October I have been doing really good. I havent smoked drugs, have not drank,I'm going to school, passing drug tests and haven't been in detention since I've been out.

"Anger is rooted in fear,
Fear is overcome by knowledge."

How does this saying apply to Cole and peters situation?

It applys to Cole because peter is afraid of cole since he beat him up. Peter could overcome that fear by knowing Cole won't beat him up again.

Yes if I were peter I would want to see cole again so I could talk things over with him. If he disabled me I would get revenge on him and beat him up 10 times worse.

Flip Anger Skit

In the skit me and victor will be walkin up to Matt and I will ask matt if he has change for a 20 and he says yes and hands me fake money, so Victor gets mad that we get fake money and punches matt, and when matt falls on the ground we both start swingin on him.




-To handle the situation better instead of jumping him, we could have just tryed to talk to him about it to make the situation better than worse.
