yes, yes they do.

After reading this question I did some research about this topic and I believe that yes, the hearings absolutely have the right to hold a hearing if they feel comfortable to do so. I believe they should do a confirmation hearing on Judge Garland just so they can say what is on there mind instead of feeling like they are useless and serve no purpose in this situation.

Also, don’t forget the fact that all of these people in the senate will have to work with guy for a few years, and if that is the case they should absolutely deserve a hearing just to see if the man can fit in the group if anything. The Supreme Court is very, very important to this country and if some drama and serious arguments start to happen in our Supreme Court and serious issues start taking a while to be solved this country could be in severe trouble. I’m not saying this guy is going to be a terrible person to put in the Supreme Court by any means, I just believe that the people already there deserve the right to hold a confirmation hearing on any man or woman who could be the next person in.

The Internet >

            Personally I believe that the Internet is one of the most useful things we have today in this world. I know that the Internet can be used for many terrible things such as useless video games that kids play for hours, being able to buy almost any illegal thing you need, or pornography.

            Without the Internet today we as a country would be in shambles, much of our business comes from the Internet nowadays and the internet also can be very useful to anyone who is curious about just anything. Many times my friends and I will get in arguments and instead of arguing for hours we’ll eventually just Google it and that will solve our problem right there. Also with school multiple times I would’ve been in big trouble not being able to contact a teacher, but thanks to emails I always have a chance to ask a teacher a question when I need to.

            Im not saying the internet is perfect, because it simply is not. What I am saying is that we as a country truly need the internet more than we can even fathom.

You get a vote, and you get a vote, but not you.

After reading The Truth Of America’spost I highly agree with them on some of the things they have said. It truly is a shame that 600,00 people really can’t vote just because they have the wrong I.D’s but yet still have to pay taxes like every other American. This honestly kind of disappointed me in this country for letting this be allowed, if we as a country are “land of the free” than how come some of the free can’t vote? There reason for not allowing this is such a joke as well as my fellow classmate said, “There reason for not passing this is because they say it would confuse the poll workers and will change the voting rules because is so close to the election. Just like the writer said I really do not know much about the poll workers, but in my opinion if you are working the polls that makes arguably the biggest decision in this country ever four years, you should be able to do small things such as this.

Gun Control

I’m writing my paper on Casey Knodel's paper he wrote in stage five. I thought he wrote this paper very well and I agree with many of the things he is saying. Throughout this article his main topic is gun control, and one of the things I really loved about what he said is all the jobs it brings in. in a economy like we are in today us Americans know it can be troubling to find a job at time, and if we make gun control even harder than it already is or even get rid of it than many jobs could be destroyed and many hard working people’s careers along with that. He has a statistic that says, “the average industry worker now receives $50,180” that’s a good paying job for a lot of people who had trouble finding work at the time, so if we get rid of guns and allowing people to have them this could seriously not only hurt the economy but many people’s lives. He also mentions how this is our second amendment which is a great point, and I know this is a little bit of a stretch but if you take away our second amendment who knows someday they might take away our right of speech as well..
