The Criminal System
And why we should bring back public hangings.
Am I the only person in this world that thinks that the way we treat our criminals is getting out of hand? Could it be possible that I am the only person that believes that criminals should be treated as such and not pampered?
Now first off your going to ask, "Pampered? Criminals aren't pampered!" Last time I checked, some (if not most, not sure the exact percentage) prisons had given their inmates a cell (not sure size), a bed with mattress, a toilet, sink, basic food that will keep you alive (may not be tasty though), and T.V. with basic cable hookups (picture link : ).

Environmentalists are liars.
Environmentalists
And why they're a bunch of hypocrites.
There seems to be a new popular trend that people are following today. This trend is being an "Environmentalist." Which means that you work toward protecting the natural environment (Earth) from destruction or pollution. Now the overall idea or "theory" of this is a good one indeed. However these people do not really care about the earth. If you follow these people around and figure out their "surroundings," if you will, then you will realize how big a fakes these people are.
After these people get done with a huge rally at, lets say… a power plant, and set off for their home. Firs
Arm the Citizens
In today's modern culture in America, we believe that guns are bad, and guns are the source of all evil. Not true, it's not the guns that are causing deaths; it's the people behind the gun. If you put a responsible, cool-headed person behind the trigger, you can bet your dollar that s/he won't do anything stupid or cause any injuries. Today's kids haven't been properly taught how to handle a gun, and how to respect it not only as an incredibly great tool, but to also respect how deadly it can be. My Dad has taught me since I was 5 (shot a .22 caliber handgun {=P) how to handle a gun, and how to never use it against another

School System Sucks
The school system set in these days is a failing, faulty school system. In today's society we put too much a price on the athletics of others. While athletics are good for you, and athletes are indeed fun to watch, they get paid too much to play a game that anyone could play in their backyard. When we should be focusing on the scholastics of the students.
Athletes get this profound sense of invulnerability, thinking that they are above everyone, including the teachers. Time and time again I've seen athletes curse, cheat, and otherwise in front of other teachers, and what do these teachers do? They sit idly by whilst the athletes do these thi
