War on porn is heating up

May 12, 2016 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Jacob Strangis |Staff Writer| Utah is attempting to put a ban on pornography. The governor of Utah, Gary Herbert, has recently signed a resolution that declared pornography a "public health hazard" and an "epidemic." The government has brought up the fact that children may have a high risk premature exposure to pornography and potentially shift their behavior towards the concept of sex. "If a library, or McDonald's or anyone else was giving out cigarettes to our children, we would be picketing them," said Sen. Todd Weiler.

Texas teachers could use deadly force

February 7, 2015 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Danni Ybarra |Staff Writer| A new bill proposal will allow Texas educators legal immunity from using deadly force against a student in self-defense. The bill, HB 868, also known as the “Teacher’s Protection Act”, would give an educator the right to use deadly force against a student in either self defense, in defense of other students, or in defense of school property. An educator who uses justified brutal or deadly force would be entitled to the civil immunity, or not liable for their actions, according to the Bill. “I do think if they can prove it was in self-defense, they should go easy on the teacher,” said student Katharine Hall. “But they should not be given full … [Read more...] about Texas teachers could use deadly force

By Santiago Castillo |Staff Writer| Thinking about drinking and driving, think again. The average cost of a DUI in California is more than $10,000, according to onedui.com. LA County, Sacramento County, Alameda County and Tulare County are part of a pilot program that makes people who get convicted of a DUI install an ignition interlock device (IID), which is a breathalyzer that prevents someone from starting their car if they failed to pass the blood alcohol level requirements. Assembly Bill No. 91 put this program in law and will be held in place until Jan. 1, 2016. “I have not heard of that happening, from my understanding for a first DUI they usually don’t have to get an Ignition … [Read more...] about First DUI could cost over $10,000

Women are paid unfairly

May 27, 2012 by Archived posts

By Aunjolay Lambert |Staff Writer| When it comes to gender equality, studies have shown that women have taken the backseat to their male counterparts when it comes to wages,and I think it’s unfair to see women getting paid less than men. “Nationally, the median weekly wages for women are $692 and for men $840,” according to the Pittsburg Post-Gazette. Studies show that “overall they earn 77 cents for each dollar made annually by men and in some professions such as financial managers the number drops to 66 cents,” according to msnbc.com. Many women have another responsibility, which is to take care of their children, compared to men. Women usually have to take care of their … [Read more...] about Women are paid unfairly

Skittles are suspicious?

April 21, 2012 by Archived posts

By Shanieka Perrier |Staff Writer| What is so suspicious about iced tea and a bag of skittles? A 17-year-old boy holding only those items and wearing a “hoodie” was shot and killed ion Feb. 26 in Sanford, Florida.  Trayvon Martin was shot by George Zimmerman after he saw the boy walking around in his neighborhood and found him “suspicious.” I believe that Zimmerman brought this situation upon himself. According to the LA Times, he was instructed to go home and let the police handle the situation. In my opinion he acted purely on suspicion and ignored the police, as though he was above the law. I have a problem with Zimmerman never initially being arrested. There was a dead body … [Read more...] about Skittles are suspicious?
