Blogging is very new to an outlet that is still in it’s infancy – the Internet. And the craze has caught on.
Some people, however, seem to think that blogging holds some sort of privacy, while others use it to ‘cyber-bully’ others. It has some so concerned that school officials are blocking the use of the technology on school grounds.
Consider this: A teenager (using them as an example, since far more teens use blogs than the rest of the majority) posts a blog while using their name and the school in which they attend or the area that they live in. For someone with sinister intentions all it would take is a good search engine, like Google. A perv in Dallas could do a search for blogs in Dallas and, given enough time and refining, many matches will be found with way too much information (school schedules, work schedules, phone numbers, etc).
People have been incriminated for things they have posted on blogs that led back to crimes that they have commited. This goes to prove that people don’t think about consequenses. The same goes for employment – present and future. If you think current and prospective employers aren’t looking at personal blogs, think again. What you share with the world may determine whether or not you land that next job…
 The feds are wanting Google to give them information in regards to what users have been searching for online. Google’s response: “No way!”
Google is doing what Verizon, Yahoo and others have not done – standing up for its users and itself. Keep it up guys! Whether it’s in the name of terrorism, child porn, or whatever, the government needs to use the resources it has a little better and stop voilating the privacy of its citizens and corporations. |
 When it comes to this little girl ‘Why’ is the question.
Why was she beaten nearly to death? How can an 11 year old girl deserve that? We all get angry at our children. Sometimes we get very angry. I’m a parent – I know from experience. But for these people, who obvioulsy cannot control themselves (it’s eveident when baseball bats become involved), why even take custody of her? Why is her step-father (if you can call him that) wanting her to be kept alive? Because he loves her, or because he will be charged with murder if she dies? You figure it out. It’s not that difficult. There is no reason to make that broken little body suffer any longer because of the man that put her on life support. Why would we let monsters like this so called father live? Haliegh’s adopted mother is already dead, and that’s fine. One down, one to go. I realize this happens all over the world. This is not an isolated case. Everyone who cane be so brutal deserves that same treament. |
 What can I say? It seems that every year the world just gets… nicer! At least to some degree. We have to pamper those who feel they have been served unjustly, whether or not they are entitled to it, and we see that our government encourages our children to advance in schools, even if they don’t care about the education they are provided and are potentially holding their fellow classmates back. And this is just the tip of the iceberg…
My favorite saying has always been ‘Spare the rod and spoil the child.’ Where is our society going? For decades we have handed a living to so many who don’t deserve it – aka welfare. Don’t get me wrong! There are people out there who need a helping hand, but they are the ones that usually don’t get it. That doesn’t include how we fight for people who seem like don’t want us there and hold the hands of others that will stab us in the back the next time we turn around! There comes a time when people and the government needs to start focusing more on the motivated individuals and rewarding those who deserve it. If things don’t seem fair, then it’s up to the individual to change it, and any law that declares otherwise should be abolished. That’s life! There’s coming a time where people will be complacent and have no respect for others. And we wonder what’s wrong with society… |
