AoW Impressions - 3/6/15

    From what I have gathered form my peers on international news ISIS is still a huge problem. Only this time ISIS is submitting propaganda online through social media. There is a huge amount of teens that are on social media so now ISIS is got a hold of teens on their side. They also are recruiting females to be their wives. This news really stood out to me because I know ISIS will grow stronger this way. I just do not understand that there would be people in our country who would join ISIS. People recruiting to ISIS from our country shows the different kinds of people our World is made out of.
   
Along with different kinds of people there are different kinds of diseases and bacteria attacking humanity. Some are getting stronger and spread everywhere because of our doing. Almost everything is our doing. Notice I state "our" and not "others" because everyone is involved in something. Parents are rescheduling vaccination dates or either canceling them, thinking it is better for their children. This is false, studies show that children have a higher chance of diseases. There has recently been a measles outbreak in DISNEY PARKS! Just think about that for a minute. Anywhere and anyone could be exposed to diseases. Therefore, parents vaccinate your kids and yourself.

     There were other conflicts that my classmates had mentioned but these two stood out the most to me because most had this. There are so many worries in our World and some are debates, such as, "Should marijuana be legalized for less crime rates?" Then there is, "Is the dress blue and black, or white and gold?" Second, war is a never ending thing. President Obama just granted permission for air strikes. Which is allowing war, in a way...

     Overall, knowing all these new topics popping up every week makes me more aware and included in our society. I find this kind of strange that I feel included but in a way I do. I just hope to hear extremely good news that gets the World's mind off from the bad for a few days. Something that might cause for celebration. Sad truth is, this might not happen, or at least not in my life time.
