Honduras arrests five Syrians headed to US with stolen passports

 

 This Tuesday five Syrians are arrested with stolen passports and intended to come over to the U.S. where they could be planning an attack. The Syrians have made it over many states and countries, but the police don’t know if they wanted to just leave the war happening in Syria.

  If I was the men I would have just got real ID of themselves and not get fake ones. This does affect me because if the guys were terrorists they could bomb us and kill me or thousands of other people. These guys in my opinion are terrorists and they think nothing else better to do than to come to america and blow up stuff.

  This event does impact America because if they are getting by security that easy to almost go around the world then a lot of other people could do that. The men most likely are setting up something to bomb America again. Terrorista are already in america, but we don’t know when they will attack.

Florida officer fired after fatal shooting of black musician

 This Thursday Florida police officer killed a black amateur musician. The officer Nouman Raja had been on administrative leave from the police force. They announced Nounman’s dismissal on Thursday.

  If I was in the position of Raja I would not even have shot.How I feel about the article is Raja should go to jail because he obviously killed a man and should have thought twice about his decision to shoot. Raja also now has a crime of killing on his resume and not many police forces will hire him.The article doesn’t affect me in anyway because I live in a small town so no shootings happen.

  The event does and doesn’t impact the world because it does by starting more riots and more people going psycho. It doesn’t impact the world because not many people will ever know about this shooting. If Raja would have thought for a second not to shoot he would not be in jail and not be unemployed. If more bad neighborhoods find out about this it could start a roit then the whole world find out about the event that occurred. Raja is now a convicted cop with a background of murder.

Stabbing attack at university not tied to terror

   In California four people were stabbed at 1:50 p.m. in the afternoon. They said it was not related to terrorism. The motive was Faisal Mohammad, but they don’t know if he targeted anymore people. Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke said he had backpack with bomb in it. The stabbing occurred at university of California, Merced campus.

 

   This issue doesn’t really relate to me because I live in a small town and we probably won’t never have a shooting. How I feel about this event is very sad, because almost everyday you hear someone get killed. The stabbing doesn’t affect me at all and all I can do is pray for them. The guy was probably in depression and found out a way to take out his anger.

 

  The event doesn’t impact that much because there’s so much going on and people won’t know about it. It’s just another killing that happens and we just need to pray over the four men that died in it. The killer is just plain ole stupid and need some help. If you’re in depression get some help you don’t need to take someone’s life to.

U.N. criticizes Czech detentions and strip-searches of refugees

U.N. human rights chief Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein accused the Czech Republic on Thursday of committing systematic human rights violations by detaining refugees for up to 90 days, strip-searching them for money to pay for their own detention.
I sad that someone would hold people in a room for 90 days. They did something and they really had to say in a room. That’s just cruelty and wrong that someone would do that to someone. How I feel about the article is that people know that did something wrong they don’t have to be in a prison for 90 days. The event doesn’t affect me because I live in Christ and he forgive me for my sins.
The event does impact the world, but Obama probably knows that this happened but he doesn’t do anything to save these people!? Hopefully the people will over there will stop prisoning people and just forgive them. The people are probably dying but they don’t care. The president or whatever they have who’s in charge needs to make it where people are not in prison for something very little.

Girl’s 911 call as dad killed by car helps mom get job back

  In Columbus, Ohio a second grade teacher was accused of killing her husband. They were just driving down the road when she hit him. Their 12 year old daughter was in the back watching the whole thing and screaming.

  The issue in the story was why are people keep on killing people. How I feel about the event is why didn’t the father protect himself, but also I see that he couldn’t because he was driving. This event does affect me a lot because I love my parents but you may never know they could be insane.

   The event does impact the world because people are getting crazier everyday. Also it’s really sad that the child saw the whole murder happen. If we just take a second and be blessed that we don’t have psycho parents. Hopefully the world will change and not have so many killings.

Many Dead, 20 Wounded in Shooting at Umpqua Community College in Oregon

 

   Thursday up in Umpqua Community College’s Campus in Roseburg, Oregon there was a shooting. 13 people were and 20 were wounded. The shooting happened inside the Snyder Hall around 10:30 a.m.

   The article is sad because you hear more every week that people are shooting up schools,blowing up buildings, or someone just robbing a bank. How I feel about this article is people need to just think is this the right thing to do. The article doesn’t affect me really in any way but just hurts my heart someone would do this. We could stop this happening if we didn’t have such cold-hearted people.

   The event does impact the world because more and more psychos are shooting up schools. The main reason it’s happening because they are getting bullied or in depression and they think there’s no way out. If people weren’t bullies the killing rate would go down dramastically. The event probably wouldn’t happen if he didn’t have something going on in his head. The event impacts a lot of schools for the most part because they are trying to prevent these things.
