@AnthonyJ2019 as long as the flag is not being used for hateful purposes, it should be fine to keep it. symbols like the confederate flag represent an important part of our history; they serve as reminders of our accomplishments, as well as our mistakes.

another sad case of racial discrimination. what causes people to react so poorly and go as far as to make the situation harder for those they view as unequal? it’s 2018, yet it still feels like we’re in the 1700s. #mchslang19

@anneliseh2019 Uber is too relaxed on allowing almost anyone to become a driver. in order to regulate this sort of behavior and crime, a type of background check should be required for each new driver to reduce the risk of them being rapists or committing other crimes.

@og_bananapaper i believe the newspaper industry needs to prove to more people that the information that they provide is more trustworthy than social media in order to gain a larger following. if given the right resources, these news outlets could possibly become more popular and relied upon.

@3yepatch sleep deprivation can cause short and long term consequences, and it continues to affect more and more teenagers each day as the school year progresses and the workload increases. some teens don't take advantage of what free time they have, so time management is critical.

@gorillatitan22 knowing more about our history can potentially play a key role for future discoveries. it depends on what we are seeking from the past and how that can contribute to our future because if it doesn't, personally, I don't believe it is worth spending $ if it won't help later on.

women have contributed to economies worldwide, but even then, there is still so much room for improvement. this article discusses the benefits that Asia could gain if they simply allow more women into the workforce and equalized the work. #mchslang19

@michaelk4301 the altering of genes in general is a questionable matter on its own. to reduce depression, having to rely on more extreme methods as such is almost sad in a way. it could prove to be effective but just having to use science to do so is controversial.

it’s sad to see that these men were only convicted of a lesser “sexual abuse” crime rather than the more extreme wrong they did to the victim. although this is with Spain’s court of justice, what message does this send to the world? #mchslang19

it’s absolutely disturbing to see that even through all this warfare, the situation worsens with healthcare facilities being insufficient for the hundreds of thousands injured and seeking medical attention. #mchslang19

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

@3yepatch teachers serve as role models for young students so that in their futures, they don’t end up abusing drugs or other terrible acts. this new idea to form the education process sounds ideal but i question how effective it’ll be in the real world as they grow older.

do you think that this is an effective way to train and prepare students to act in real life situations where a shooter enters the school, or is it a matter of ethics in exposing teenagers to this type of fear? #mchslang19

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

@somethingblue67 it’s starting to become an infamous movement that teens are taking advantage of for the “fun” of it. people should already understand the devastating consequences of other school shootings, but maybe direct consequences to these offenders will provide a solution.

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

@michaelk4301 while it may serve as a solution, the question is the moral implications. essentially, they want to extract vital organs from these hybrids, most likely killing them, for our personal transplants. they believe it’s alright because they are ”unnatural,” but they’re still lives.

Lebron James responded to the Fox News host Laura Ingraham's comments about him and his fellow basketball stars: “We will definitely not shut up and dribble." https://t.co/FxEfs10AQb

just because Lebron James’s profession is not associated with politics, who is to say that he should not publicly express his opinions? how has racism proliferated since Trump’s election? #mchslang19

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

@roborussian the deadline is coming quickly. both parties are being too stubborn to come to a compromise, and Dreamers are at the end of that disaster. as of right now, the future does not look too optimistic for these immigrants unless, by some miracle, both parties get what they want.

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

@anneliseh2019 forgiveness falls down to how the offender chooses to make up for his/her misdeeds. if they actually start making genuine contributions to society (for a long enough period of time), giving him/her another chance seems plausible.

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

...also, what will determine whether it should be reported to law enforcement?

[Joshua C @jctwittah]

this is the first step in the right direction towards reducing the number of sexual assault cases, but will having a separate committee that handles reporting assault cases to law enforcement be as effective as it should be?... #mchslang19 https://t.co/7eJYnQu1VB
