At least five dead in UK shooting spree

This article says how a man, Derrick Bird, had gone on a shooting spree in england the other day. This man had injured 25 people and had killed 5 other. When the police had the search they had found Bird in the alley shot and dead. When Derrick Birds friend came forward he had said that Bird said "You won't see me again." The shootings spread across 3 english towns. They believe that the body they have found is Derrick Birds.
I dont understand why a man would randomly start killing people. In china when asked why they shot innocent people they said it was their love lifes. In this case would it be the same? Bird had two sons, each moved away from home and him and his wife were divorced. Lately it seems that all the random killings of innocent people is due to love problems. What makes it worse is that alot of the murderers kill themselves so they don't have to deal with the consequences. I think it's extemely dumb people that can't deal with the consequences from their actions. I think if they are stupid enough to do things like that we need to find them FAST so they have to deal with what they've done.

Nevada man convicted of raping, strangling college student

A man in Nevada was convicted of raping and killing a teenage girl. "He was also convicted of two counts of sexual assault for attacks on two other women. He was also convicted of one count of kidnapping related to one of those attacks." This man is sick because he would go on campus and threaten these girls with a gun, rape them, then take their underwear with him. This case had caused a flurry in the media and when detectives matched the DNA sample to Biela his defense attorney challenged that the DNA test was not accurate.
When it comes to stuff like this I believe not only is something wrong in this guys head but maybe something had happened to him while he was growing up for him to do these things. I don't get why he would take peoples underwear after raping them, maybe to confuse detectives or get rid of some sort of evidence. This case is extremely wrong and yet confusing. Also you would think that if this man was accused of doing all of those things themn why wouldn't he be put into jail and not let out every time to do something. Or why wouldn't those women speak up until now?

Fisherman files restraining order against BP

Workers in shrimp boats have been complaining about aches and pains due to the oil spills in the ocean. Due to the oil spills a man, John Wunstell Jr., had said he had been paid by BP to use his boat to help with the oil spill in the ocean. He started having minor headaches and nasal irritation. Within' the next week he began having random nose bleeds and aches in his stomach. Wunstell asks "BP to give the workers masks and not harass workers who publicly voice their health concerns." Following that week 7 more men had been sent to the hospital that were on his crew. When wunstell was put into the hospital he had said that he was stripped of his clothing and washed several times before he could enter the hospital. When he asked for his clothing they said BP confiscated them.
I think that it's extremely tragic that this oil spill happened. If you talk to people in Norway this is a huge deal to them. When it comes to the United States it seems as if we dont care too much about it. It's extremely sad to see all the animals dieing from this oil spill and now that people are getting sick from it. I think we need to educate people more on the oil spills to show that it is a huge problem that we need to fix and that we need to prevent from happening.

Gunman kills 3 judges in China court

In china the other day a Man had wounded three people, had killed three judges then had killed himself. Khu Jun had a child, lived with his parents, and had divorced his wife. The police say the reason for him killing all of the judges was because he wasn't given or awarded with fairness in his trial when him and his wife had gotten a divorce.
I think this is extremely ridiculous how each day in china more and more people are being killed. first it's a bunch of little kids within' one week and now it's judges? Many people say that China is going to take over someday and is this what we want it to become? In a sense i am stereotyping because not all people from China are massive killers, but in a sense what is making all these people take out a shot gun and kill many innocent people.

Malawi gay couple jailed for indecency, unnatural acts

The article on CNN says that a gay couple had been arrested and sentenced 14 years in jail for what people considered "gross indecency and unnatural rights" after an engagement party." They had been arrested because in Africa gay marriage is against the law. Activists in Malawi say "Article 20 of the countries constitution--which outlaws discrimination--is being violated." When this was interviewed the country said they have no law that criminalizes sexual orientation , just certain sexual acts."
I think that people need to be more educated on the sexuality of the same gender. Why is it such a big deal to be with a person of the same sex. Love is love to me. If a man and a woman love someone and are very happy people think that is okay. So what is wrong with two men or two women being just as happy and it NOT being okay? I think that if people have a problem with gay marriage or gay intamacy they should be asked why they have such a problem with it? A law and a 14 year jail sentance isn't fair at all just to love someone of the same sex.

Children Injured in a China school attack.

A man had walked into a school with a hammer and had injured 5 of the children in the class. He then after had poured gasoline all over himself and grabbed two of the children. Teachers managed to get the kids free. He lit himself on fire, committing a classroom suicide. This week also 2 other attacks had happened. On thursday 28 students were injured in east china, the man had brough in a knife and attempted killing all 28 of the kids. A prior day 18 more kids had been attacked with a man and a knife.
I think there is no reason to be randomly wanting to hurt or kill kids. What is the point behind it? Why did these people do it? One man said it was because of his love life and how it wasn't going good. Why is that any reason to be killing or trying to kill 28 kids. I can't wait until the trials of these come up because I'm sure everyone wants to know the reason to why these people went into the school and wanted to hurt these kids. Hopefully they get a long sentance or a big one. I'm sure if this would be taken lightly it would make many people extremely angry.

Jobs and Welfare

Issue #1-Issue number one explains how the higher class, middle class, and low class has such a gap between salary levels. People feel that it's such a huge gap and that it's such an unfair gap that it needs to be changed. The government along with the alot of people feel that we should increase taxes for the higher class, lower the taxes for the middle and low class, to even out the salary gap. By doing this it will even out the salary distribution, it will protect domestic jobs, maintain salary levels, and even create wealth ( make more jobs). Protetectionism is what goverment is trying to do. Globalization among all the countries is one other reason the government thinks there is such a huge gap among salaries. They think the federal government should limit or put restrictions on trade and Outsourcing Other critics think that if we do raise taxes that it will "stiffle economic growth thus hurt all workers."

I feel that in order to distribute wealth evenly that more taxes should be taken from the wealthier people and not as much as the middle class people. In a "perfect world" wealth would be distributed evenly among everyone. A "Universal Wealth." I think that in the perfect world people would be given their income just by the hard work that they do. (Political Opinion) William Domhoff had written the article, "Who rules America" and explains in it how he is amazed by how much of a difference there is between the salaries. He said its an extraordanary change among an average person and a CEO of a company when it comes to their wages. He also explains how we need to seperate the definitions of wealth and income. Yet, in reality the wealthiest people have the biggest income.
