School bans Confederate flag symbol from vehicles

From: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/09/16/school-bans-confederate-flag-symbol-from-vehicles/

The topic of this article is Christiansburg high school is banning flags and symbols that could be deemed offensive by any race, religion, ethnic group, or gender.

The Christianburgs high school has banned flags and symbols that could be deemed offensive by any group to keep to the same track as for the dress code and rules for decorating lockers.  This started when a man in Virginia shot and killed 9 members of a historic black church.  Debbie Cox, a mother of one of the students, was shocked at this banning of the flag and admitted that she did not read the parking contract before signing.

This event sadly did not shock me as I knew that in the way we were heading this would come eventually.  Though I do not support this, as this goes against both my personal morals and our countries bill of rights.  The first amendment states that we have the freedom, I repeat Freedom, to practice our religion and to speak out.  Furthermore, it is also stated that our not limited to what I have listed before meaning that we have the right to “speak” out using symbols.   Also, how do we know that the symbol of the confederate flag was meant to offend as much as honor there ancestry of confederates.

This impacts the world because if we give an inch to these groups then we give them a mile in the end.  If you comply with a single thing they are trying to accomplish in the way of limiting power then we will much as such is shown in the article.  They gave in and banned offensive symbols and flags on cars, lockers, and clothes.  To make this even worse most parents are not aware of this proved by the statement made by Debbie Cox.  This proves that with giving up a small freedom can result in the loss of a big one, and don’t think oh this could only happen at a school because it is already happening throughout the world.

1. The healthier lunches that have been thrusted upon the children of America has caused a rise in wasted food and wasted money.

2. Trashed: Study finds students toss veggies mandated by federal school lunch program.

4.Studies have found that since the required healthy foods in school lunches has been put into place there has been an increase in wasted food and money. This is the result of kids not being forced to eat the fruits and veggies that are being provided for them, so this just cause and increase of money for a lunch that is supplying the same amount of food as the lunches did before.  Showing that this was a ineffective program used to please health critics.

5.My position on this is that what we eat is our business.  The decision should be up to the parent, not the government on what there children eat.  Through I believe healthy choices should be offered, it is like I said up to the parent.  The sad part about the program is that there is of food waste. Furthermore, there is money being spent out of schools low budget for things we don’t eat.

6.This impacts the world by three things: food waste, waste of money, and government control. There has been an increase of food waste from every school lunch from 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup per student which with all students under this program that is significantly.  Also, the amount of money being wasted by this takes away from the amount of money from other programs.  Furthermore, the governments control in this shows that once again the government is trying to dictate over everything we do.  That is why this problem effects the world.

It was in the middle of July on a warm day and excitement filled our car. My family and I were on our way to Disney World and I was excited as a puppy. I did not, I repeat, did not like being stuck in the car because I was so close but so far.
When we came through the gate to Disney I felt relieved, I was finally here at last. It wasn’t time to relax yet though we still had to set up camp. After we set camp we went to the golf cart rentals and selected a 4 person cart. Later we went to magic kingdom and watched a extradent, bright parade at 10 p.m. then at 11 we watched the fireworks go in a colorful, amazing blaze of shapes.
The next day my I was determined to go all the parks and get as many autographs as I could ,so we decided that we would go to epcot. We got on the bus filled with excitement ready to be at the park . When we arrived there, the first thing we saw was the mexico exhibit and it was an incredible Aztec Pyramid and in the pyramid were woman making blankets and bold Aztec warriors. There was even a place where they sold fresh tortillas. Next in the Japanese part I saw an impressive Japanese house with people outside teaching you how to do origami. Next in the Irish part there was an old,rotten viking ship about 20 ft. long and 7 ft. wide. Also there was an old viking ship ride that goes up and down. Last in Germany, I was really excited about this part, there was food, music, desserts, and fau sausages.
The next day, we went to animal kingdom where we got autographs from mickey, minnie, donald, and all the other main ones. Then we went and saw the world’s biggest tree and some safari animals .
The last day we went to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and saw a movie which I came running out of the theater when the millions of rats came,(by the way the movie was 3d). After the movie we went to the international soda fountain with over a hundred soda choices. Later we went to the star wars area and what do you know, it was the star wars marathon so some clones came over and flirted with my sister,(“by the way I was mad as a hornet”). We just kept walking though, then we came to a ride that makes you feel like you were in a ship from star wars.
I am glad that I went on this trip so I could learn a simple rule “anyone can have fun but only families can have memories” and so I could spend some quality time with my family. The music, food, and the nightlife of the park , and the bright fireworks ,the giant white castle, and kindness of the people. I will never forget this experience.
