I think sleep texting is rather weird and crazy. I do believe alot of people do do it even if they don't recall doing it. I know from presonal experience that I have sleep texted myself and half the time I don't even remember it.

I think we need to hang tight to our gun laws, because the more we let them come into our lives, the less freedom we have. I think we should always stick by our guns and keep fighting to keep our gun rights.

They want to petition it because it drives the corn prices up even when they are low on supply.

That guy is an idiot. Racism shouldn't still be around in 2013. He needs to be sued or just punched in the face. Who cares what color the person is, as long as they're qualified.

In Mississippi after the voting rights were passed, the KKK still attacked. There were three young civil rights workers murdered in 1964 and it still haunts the town today. I think that it would be the most dangerous time.

They are talking about every man and woman to have to do 2 years of compulsory service. It would create balance and fairness. The change will create significant steps toward equality.

The article is talking about how the birth is at its lowest currently. They explain how it's such a big deal but I beleive it's ok because in reality too many kids are being born especially to young teenagers. It may be a big deal to some but if some would realize it may just be for the better for time being.

Comparing the two State of the Unions, it looks as if Obama is trying to focus more on America and the jobs. But I believe there is more the just those two things to constantly talk about or focus on.

BR 2/12/13

It is talking about how nuclear tests are being conducted in North Korea today. They also talk about how in the past they haven't been such a big threat as they have been here recently. I think they should be very careful and watch for the nuclear testing.

I don't think people realize how serious west virginians take our gun rights. There is no need to try and take our rights away from us when everybody knows we aren't gonna care what the government has to say. We will always have our guns no matter and always keep our gun rights. But they keep bringing up about gun rights and making a big deal of it, it's really becoming annoying.

Digital learning has really been helpful and useful for students in the 21st century. It has helped them become successful in computer skills, learning more about technology and learning how to use all tools available on computers. I think it is wonderful that they are increasing digital learning for students.

I don't understand why the biggest dispute is guns. I mean I do understand but people are taking and blowing it all out of the ordinary. I just think they need to settle it and pick a few things to make gun rights a little stricter. Our nation has way to many other things to be worrying about than people and guns.
