Q:Who would your audience be? Would you write for your peers, adults, or yourself? What would be the end goal of your blog?
When blogging my audience would be anyone that could connect, anyone willing to listen. Peers, adults and yes even myself it could help me discover more about myself. The goal of my blog would me to develop my voice as a writer more. The blog about the time i lost my voice, my opinions on the electoral college, my response for personal benefits q. 1 and all of my other blogs helped me greatly with develop my voice as a writer and that is what i would continue to do. If i chose to continue blogging.

Blog about Blogging (Stupidity)
Personal Benefits
1. Yes i do believe that blogging has contributed to my growth as a writer. This is because i have realized that i have more opinions on things than i thought. It can help me develop the plot structures of my stories. This is because it can help me discover the issues.
2. Yes it has helped me develop a new voice as a writer because i have a political voice now and i can now let more people know about my thoughts and opinions.
3 Although blogging has helped me develop my voice as a writer i don't believe that i will continue blogging after we finish as a group. It takes a lot of time and effort. Maybe when i get older will take it on again. However right now i need to focus on what's important and right now blogging isn't on my list.
Social Benefits
1.Blogging can help you foster new types of relationships ion many ways. It can help you get to know people that have the same feelings as you. As well as helping you understand that you are not alone other people feel the same as you.
2.Honestly blogging hasn't really affected any relationships that i have had with people prior to my discover of blogging.
3. I haven't really taken blogging as seriously as most people. So again blogging hasn't really helped me with developing relationships with other people.
Redefining Media
1. The role of the media is to spread news wether it is false or fact. Media is used as a big form of propaganda in today's society.
2. Somewhat. I believe blogging is more for publicizing your opinions than media.
3.Yes it has made me take a look at media from a different perspective. Now i better understand the saying You can't always believe what you read and/ or see.
4.No because no one can really prevent you form speaking your mind in blogs. That is why it is a good why to make your opinions known.

Abort! Abort!
I personally don't believe in abortions. I believe that everyone deserves a chance at life. However my problem with the electoral college is that it was created to decrease the power of the government. Although the representatives of the electoral colleges were elected by the states in which they come from it is not up to them to contradict the laws of the government. The laws created by the government were created for a reason. What am i talking about you ask?
I am talking about the government's 1st amendment that says freedom of religion. Now what does that have to do with anything? My topic is about abortion and the government. According to Wikipedia.org "...the Supreme court struck down state laws banning abortion ruling that such laws was violated an implied right of privacy...."However some states ban abortion under certain conditions. However in some cases religion may allow abortion under these conditions. In these cases state laws are contradicting those of the 1st amendment.
Although no religions completely accept abortion. I believe it is wrong for states to make laws on abortion that contradict the laws of the the higher power, the Supreme court. Also, though the electoral college is suppose to support the states, they are responsible for knowing the law and what's right. Is the electoral college fair or are they just working to gain more power for the state in which they are representing?

5-O ATROCITY
There are many times in history in which police were very brutal. Throughout different non-violent attmepts for change, marches, movements (Civil Rights) and sit-ins. Although the people sometimes tried to rebel, officers shouldn't treat them so cruel especially when they aren't violent. Many police officers take there jobs to the extreme and treat poeple with disrespect. Where I live and all over the world.They threaten, beat and physically and emotionally abuse people. Majority of the time they even go unpunished for these things. They believe that because it is their job withhold the law they can't be punished. This isn't fair but it happens often. Officers go unpunished for wrongdoings. Police are hippocrites. How is that you can give out tickets for people talking on cellphones; when you are caught talking on yours? And how is that you can pull people over for speeding, running lights and everything else; when you turn your sirens on just so you dont have to wait at lights or get stuck in traffic? How is it that police arrest people for harrassment but they harrass others? Below is an example of 5-0 atrocity,and the girl was just trying to do her job; the officer was to blame!

M~U~T~3 CITIZENS!
M~U~T~3 CITIZENS
Do you believe that we have two voices? I do, our inner voices and our outer voices. Have I ever lost my voice? I say yes one of my voices are buried; gone forever. 'Cause while I am consistently voices my opinions about other things when it comes to dicussing me and my inner feelings and emotions i'm mute! That's how it is sometimes especially when it comes to voicing our opinions on society.
Many people have strong opinions about things that go on in our world today. However everyone is scared to speak up about how they feel on the issues that really matter. If something really matters to you, how can you not voice your opinions, stand up for what you believe in. Governments are focusing on petty things not the things that really mean something. For instance making laws about how people should wear their clothes; we are at war here people.
Why are you worried about people, people are going to wear what they want to wear regardless.Worry about budgeting correctly;explain to us why we are at war. Why are schools closing? Why is there so much violence these days? Telling someone they have to wear their pants at a certain height is not going to put money in the budget, it's not going to decrease the rate of violence.
I'm voicing my opinion, and eventhough i'm am not old enough to vote I know what needs to happen to make the U.S. a better country. The government has to get it together, make better decisions. Stop looking at the little pictures; pay attention to the big ones. Don't be close-minded look at situations from different points of veiws. Focus on the things that really matter. Don't scare your people ,encourage your people to speak up, to find there voice. With the help of the people this will become a better country!

Faces on the Milk Cartons
I am glad I’m not one of the many faces on a milk carton. There are still too many missing people and children. People go around snatching up children for numerous pointless reasons. They have no hearts. If your out there you will eventually get caught; think about the children. People are so inconsiderate. Here is a poem about a child that was kidnapped. I thought about how it would feel for someone who had been kinapped and here is how it came out:

I thought they cared but I guess they didn’t.
They could have stopped him but why didn’t they?
All they had to do was give him the money.
Maybe they didn’t have it.
At least my sister had them bury my dolls with me.
I think she still cared.
If it was up to her to save me I would still be alive now.
I roam the house freely now, my sister often cries.
Every one mopes around the house now.
I try to show them I’m in a better place now and don’t worry.
I used to think no one would care if I died, I was a troublesome child.
Now I know my family loves me but they could have tried harder to save me.
I still love them all the same.
However, if she would have answered the phone the second time I would be alive.
Next time call on my sister.
However it wasn’t their fault it was his.
How irresponsible he was, he should’ve learned how to handle a gun first.
You know, before he grabbed me up.
With his rough dark hands, and is hazel eyes.
If I was to see him again I would only ask, Why me?
I was only three.
Even now _ nine years after Congress established the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children to clear up some of the confusion and reduce child kidnappings _ estimates range from 200 to 300 stranger abductions a year to several thousand. The reason is the lack of a federal law ...
