Protected speech

       In the opinion article Is taking a knee protected speech?  by Judge Andrew Napolitanos of Fox News, Napolitanos argues that "we are free to respect the flag and shun those who do not, but we may not harm a hair on their heads. In the final paragraph he quotes the french philosopher  Voltaire, who when faced with people who had literally lost their minds, said,"I disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."         Judge Andrews Napolitanos joined the fox news channel in January 1988 and currently serves as the senior judicial analyst. He is also the youngest life-tenured Superior Court judge in the history of the State of New Jersey. Because of this he has a strong knowledge of the laws of the country and the rights of the people. His intended audience gears toward people who are questioning the protests and if they are protected. He is very qualified for this article an...

Why is this being discussed? (Blog stage 7)

       There is no question that Donald Trump is not the most likeable person of all time. He has said many things without thinking that fall in line with racism and complete disrespect towards women. While it is not at all ideal to have a president who talks in this manner, the discussion of impeachment does not need to be brought up. Under what argument would we be able to impeach Donald Trump? His bad comments and loose tongue are not enough to impeach him. A person cannot be impeached just because you don't like him. In order for a president to be impeached, a president must commit treason, bribery, high crimes or misdemeanors.

Make it a Holiday!

       Tuesday? Is election day really on a Tuesday? At least make election day a holiday if we are going to make election day a Tuesday. But honestly, why on earth is the biggest decision Americans will collectively make made on a Tuesday?            Actually, the reason for voting on Tuesday is helpful to the American people. Well, at least the American people of 1845. Last time I looked at the calendar I read 2017. In 1845 the country was, for the most part, an agricultural society. It took many farmers a full day to travel by horse-drawn buggies to the county seat to vote. Also, the Biblical Sabbath and market day in most towns were on a Wednesday. Because of these factors, the easiest day for people to vote in 1845 was a Tuesday.        But the easiest day to vote in 2017 is definitely not on Tuesday. Tuesday voting has led to a chronically low voting turnout. According to NPR , there...
