Assignment for 10/30

For my first cartoon I chose the "What Obama meant to say". I think this symbolizes the Obama care that was supposed to be the new health care and that everyone had to get it. I think he's saying "If I like your healthcare you can keep it" because he was going to make everyone get Obama care whether they liked it or not.

For my second cartoon I chose the "A rock and an expensive place, color". Again I think it symbolizes the Obama care. It would be better to get a rock than have to pay for Obama care. The cartoon looks like a remake of a Charlie Brown episode.

For my third cartoon I chose the "Great Bumpkin color". I think most of them deal with Obama care and how we were going to be forced to replace our previous healthcare with the new Obama care. The Charlie Brown reference is good because people believed they could keep their healthcare plan that they liked, but found out they might have to change it according to Obama.

BR-10/31

1.) I think the letter is a bit harsh, instead of saying those things the woman could just hand out healthy snacks. The letter could damage a kids self esteem and piss off a parent.
2.) She has a right of speech, however, she can abuse that by being harsh to kids that she's handing out candy to.

2.) Not necessarily your height also plays a part in it and your muscles.

BR-10/28

1.) I think the flag today that people have on their items is meant for something else. A lot of people don't know what it really stands for, so they make their own reason for it.
2.) I think the guys opinion is right because people today fly that flag for different reasons than what it really stands for and I think if they knew the actual reason than they wouldn't support that flag anymore.
3.) I think there is still an issue because people around here sometimes use it to express that they are rebels and some people use it to express that they are racist, both of which are not good reasons to support the confederate flag.

BR-10/22

1.) I think it's kind of pointless. The men shouldn't have messed with the rock and instead told someone about the sturdiness of the rock.
2.) No, they shouldn't because they were trying to make the area a little more safe for the kids and families that visit the national park. However they should have told park officials rather than trying to take care of the problem themselves.
