Major events have crafted the United States and other nations into what they are today. Going from world wars in the 1940’s, to civil rights movements in the 1960’s, to extravagant national debt today, have all played a part in shaping our nation. Being from rural Mississippi, world news being made here is uncommon. We see all of our major news from televisions or newspapers, and this “news” is all happening elsewhere, far from here. Whether it is a good thing that we do not make the big news or not, the fear of uncertain events still lingers. From shootings in schools to bombings in cities, we are fortunate for being seemingly far from these dangers. Even though no physical effects pertain to me, mental pain and fear stays and leaves doubt

On April 19, 1995, a man by the name of Timothy McVeigh carried out an attack that would leave the United States, along with other countries, devastated. At 9:02 A.M, a truck bomb explosion outside of the Alfred P. Murrah Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, left 168 people dead and hundreds more injured. Many people apprehend that McVeigh carried out this attack because he was mentally unstable. He was actually thinking logically. McVeigh planned out the attack based on his life experiences and by what he read in books. He retaliated against the government because of his personal beliefs and he wanted to be recognized for the bombing.

Born on November 9th, 1970, Lisa Vanderbeck grew up in a very close knit neighborhood, always doing things with her neighbors, whether they were thirty years older than her, or ten years younger. One person who she was extremely close to was a friend of her moms, Mrs. Louis, who lived five doors down from her. Lisa, her mom, and twin sister would go over to her house at least once a week for “Avon Lady Day”. They would drink coffee, and hang out with the other neighbors who attended.

Jeffrey Dahmer, one of the most famous serial killers, was a sick and extremely twisted man. Rape, necrophilia, dismemberment, and cannibalism were all involved in Dahmer’s murders. Jeffrey Dahmer was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on May 21, 1960. Dahmer had a fairly normal childhood. His parents recall that Jeffrey was an “energetic and happy child.” Dahmer’s parents believe something went wrong with their son at around the age of four after he had a surgery to try and correct a double hernia. He started becoming distant at around age 10; soon, his interest involved dead animals and drinking. Eventually, his parents grew tired of his outrageous drinking problem and Jeffrey’s father made him enlist in the army. Soon enough, he was kicked out

On this day in 1999of April 20, two teenage gunmen kill 13 people in a shooting spree at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado, south of Denver. At approximately 11:19 a.m., Dylan Klebold, 18, and Eric Harris, 17, dressed in trench coats, began shooting students outside the school before moving inside to continue their rampage. By 11:35 a.m., Klebold and Harris had killed 12 fellow students and a teacher and wounded another 23 people. Shortly after noon, the two teens turned their guns on themselves and committed suicide. This event made me feel safe around schools with uniforms because it makes it more unlikely for students to bring weapons. It shows that teens may be all able to get weapons easily making me aware of the people surrounding me.

On 4/24/15, a body was discover by the MA local police in an alley, there were signs of torture although that was no the cause of death, the cause of death was a shot to the back of the head execution style, the victim was Senator Rick Khoper (RK). Khoper was the one of the many senators of the city of Boston, he was the kind of guy who would do anything necessary to get money, become as rich as possible. He had been helping the Russian mob to do money laundering among other illegal actives, like prostitution, drug trafficking and others, although he never did any of it, he helped by facilitating the process on how to do it and by alerting them of any danger. But all of this was about to change.

In the book Columbine, written by Dave Cullen, is about two boys from Columbine High School who committed a huge crime. A fire bomb was placed in a cafeteria to kill everybody in the school. They wanted to beat the record and kill as many students and teachers as they possible could.They was known as the “worst school shooting in America.” Although the plan did not go as Eric, and Dylan had planned. Dylan is a sociopath and he has let his mind set on doing something he would feel bad for. Dylan’s parents had said,” He seemed an unlikely killer.” Dylan would talk before he would shoot, and make jokes as if it was hard for him to do. He felt as he needed to be a good friend to Eric, who has had a rough time at school as in

In 1969, Charles Manson got in a conflict with a black drug dealer which fueled his homicidal urge, and concluded that the Black Panthers would seek revenge. Although the drug dealer was not a Panthers member, paranoia got the best of him. He transformed Spahn Ranch into a heavily-armed camp with night patrols and armed guards. Manson told his followers that the promised Helter Skelter race war was on the way. Charles Manson established himself as a messiah-like figure in the hippie counterculture of San Francisco. He moved in with a Berkeley grad student named Mary Brunner, and soon had 18 women living in the house with them.

Charles Manson believed that he was the new Messiah and that after a "nuclear attack" he and his followers would be saved by hiding in a secret world under the desert. His prophetic visions included a belief that the race war would result in a black victory, and Manson along with his Family members would have to mentor the black community, as they would lack experience to run the planet. As Manson and the Family were to be the beneficiaries of the race war, he told his followers that they had to help initiate it. On August 9, 1969, at Roman Polanski's Beverly Hills home at 10050 Cielo Drive. Manson Family members chose-Charles "Tex" Watson, Susan Atkins, Patricia Krenwinkel and Linda Kasabian—to carry out the murders. Kasabian acted as the

Violent crime has risen 20% over the last decade, there are may reasons why, such as the great recession, the increase of narcotic use, the break down of the family unit, or a dozen other reasons. However, the debate on how we as a society deal with violent crime is also debatable, many would say that we need more prisons, law enforcement officers, or longer prison terms. However, there are the others who are more tolerant, and would have you believe that violent crime in not on the increase, moreover, would suggest that the system is broke and the prisons should open the gates and let out all non violent offenders out. Society is violent, and this fact is evident in the amount of homicidal acts that take place every day, for example, a day

On April 20, 1999, two high schoolers attacked Columbine High school using guns along with bombs. There were 20 people injured as well as 13 people dead. Nobody knows the real reasoning behind this act of terrorism. Many people believe that the boys did it due to lack of attention, while others believe the boys did it because they played violent video games. These two boys go by the names of Dylan Klebold, and Eric Harris.

On August 6, 1969, a megalomaniac named Charles Manson ordered his “Family” to kill everyone in a house that used to be owned by a well known music recorder named Terry Melcher. However, Malcher was not occupying the house but instead the house was occupied by a renowned movie producer, Roman Polanski, and his wife, actress Sharon Tate. On that date, Manson’s family perpetrated one of the most gruesome crime in Hollywood’s history by stabbing to death Sharon Tate and her friends. The case that ensued after the murder became one of the most publicised murder trial in the history of crime.

It was April 20 1999 and Columbine high school was in session 2 fellow students were outside but nobody knew and they had propane bombs in the cafeteria kitchen and then at 11:19 am they were supposed to go off but then this happened. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris were on tv and the news recorded everything.

In two days there were seven dead, 169 stab wounds inflicted, and seven gunshot wounds (“CNN”). That was the fate of the victims of Charles Manson’s family. Some of the victims were were brutally stabbed to death, while others were shot dead. Charles Manson never participated in any of these heinous murders; he manipulated others to commit the murders for him. Charles Manson was a very manipulative man and is known as the “icon of evil”. From his troubled childhood, to his adult life as leader of the infamous Manson Family, Charles Manson led a life that made him notorious.

The subject of student rights has caused a lot of confusion and anger for decades now. There are two different sides that everyone seems to fall into. Some people want the constitutional rights of students to be fully protected within the school. The other side believes that, as a public institution, schools should regulate what is said or done by students to protect everyone involved. This is where it gets confusing, because it is hard to draw the line between what is allowed or not. The three most interesting topics that I chose to cover are a student’s right to free speech, religion within the school and student privacy.
