"In a world where a bright screen serves as both a medium of conversation and a catalyst to reduce inhibitions, the topic of freedom of speech is a precarious one. There are many harsh realities of unchecked internet usage, such as suicides due to cyberbullying, threats of violence, and the complete polarization of our nation’s politics. The ability to hide behind a screen makes anyone braver than they would be in verbal conversation, which raises the question of whether or not U.S. citizens should
Amendment states, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” These freedoms that are highlighted, such as the freedom of speech, expression, press, assembly, and petition, are not to be meddled with. In the case Texas v. Johnson in 1989, where the Supreme Court put Gregory Lee
Many are to believe that because of their particular race, they are entitled to exceptional treatment and thus cannot be exposed to the severity of reality. A simple and dire concept dealing with one’s race limits their acceptance and efficiency in society. If one is to be constantly reminded that they are justified for their position on the social hierarchy-primarily the pedestal of society, they would reason that they should not compete in overcoming social and racial boundaries. The essential
censored. As a result of the limitation of free speech, it is reasonable to believe that individuals are emphatically against censorship. I believe that the number of good people who need to be heard outweighs the amount of bad and therefore, I agree that colleges should not expel students for their opinions expressed on social media- unless the opinion has the potential to become dangerous. I believe that all Americans have the right to freedom of speech on any media; stating our own opinions is a
You see people speeding on the highway and when they see an officer, they slow down. If one starts to follow behind them. Then all of a sudden their eyes are on the road and they become the best drivers out there. The thing is God is like the police officer and always following behind you.

Life should be enjoyable and not taking your own life just by the opinion of others or by the disaster of the world or by any body failure you might be experiencing. Suicide is the act of ending your own death at your own hand to escape the pain or suffering from the world. Accordingly, to the organization of the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention, suicide becomes the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S. We need to be aware of the consequences we are making not only to ourselves but to
If you find that you tick the first statements as answers to any of these 10 questions that fit your circumstances, congratulation! You’re steering clear of procrastination. If you tick second boxes as answers to about half or more of the questions that concern you, you’re not procrastinating yet, but you’ll soon have a problem with it if the trend continues. If you tick the third box, my friend you’re a procrastinator and you need to work on it. If you tick the second to the last box. Your situation

Animal overpopulation of companion animals has been a huge issue in the US for a long time. I didn’t realize how big of an issue this was until about age 11 when I noticed how bad they get treated when they are not taken care of. I am so excited to tell people how they can solve this problem. I have helped with this issue in many ways. I have 2 kittens that we saved on the highway, a momma kitty who had her 2 babies under our house, 1 cat that was roaming our neighborhood and 1 cat from a drive through
