Lit Circle Book Choice

For the Lit Circle, my first choice was Lord of The Flies. I picked this as my first choice because the books description is about miniature kid factions fighting each other on a stranded island. I like reading action/adventure books and there is a movie for this book so i would enjoy reading the book then watching the movie. Lastly my second choice was Slaughter House 5 because it sounds like a interesting book. I chose that as my second choice because its about a man who gets stuck in time and is capture by aliens. In conclusion my two book choices were Lord of the Flies and Slaughter House 5.

Tommy Jordan

I recently watched the video on how Tommy Jordan shot his daughters laptop multiple times. That was very childish to put it up on the web, if he was a real grown up he would have simply dealt with this matter privately to avoid and publicity from spreading. Also, his daughter may not be able to find a job or work now due to this video and once something is posted on the internet, it stays forever. In conclusion Tommy Jordan dealt with the a little bit too childish and could have handled this with more discreet.

Gun Control

   Gun control is very important in Canada because with loose gun laws people could easily obtain guns to cause harm to others. Canada's gun law should stay the same because it keeps criminals from acquiring guns legally, still allows sport shooters to acquire them and lastly prevents harm to others. Canada has a long process on how to register for a gun, they do a background check on you and make you wait a few months. Also you must take a gun course before you then can get your license. People with criminal records cannot purchase a firearm legally nor can they apply for a license. Secondly people who hunt or do sport shooting will still be able to get guns just for the sport or hunting, this allows some people who participate in this hobby to continue their experience. Lastly good gun control in Canada will get more guns off the street so there is less gun violence on the street. This will prevent and save many lives from death. As of year 2000 Canada had 1 million handguns while the United states had a enormous amount of 77 million that year alone. In conclusion gun control is very important to Canada because it keeps criminals from getting weapons, allows some loose exception for hobbyist in that sector and lastly prevents and saves lives of Canadians.

Legalization of Marijuana

       Marijuana has been a big topic in debates whether it should stay illegal or become legalized. Marijuana should be legalized because it brings more pros then cons, such as, they government could greatly profit of this, safe use of the Marijuana and lastly legalization would reduce crime. First off, the government could profit off this like alcohol, when prohibition was in action all the money that was made exporting alcohol was being sent to the mobsters and criminals while the government got none of it. Same thing with Marijuana drug dealers are profiting greatly off selling weed to teens and the government isn't getting any money. Also, safe use of the drug would be that when teens purchase Marijuana from a drug dealer, the dealer could have laced it with another drug such as cocaine or heroin. So if the government sold clean weed it would prevent teens and adults from getting into other drugs. Lastly legalizing marijuana would reduce crime because a lot of people are in jail over drug possession and other things related to Marijuana, if legalized this would give police time to find other bigger dealers that sell cocaine or heroin instead of Marijuana. In conclusion Marijuana should be legalized because the government can make lots of money of it, safer use of the drug and it would reduce crime.
