Organized crime

The group preasations helped me see all the different types of gangsters there were in the 1920s and how they affected the present day.  For example most of them caused sercirty to rise in banks and other areas.  One of the most immportant things in they caused the FBI to form.  That made a huge impact on socity because it allowed not only the local police to deal with the gangsters but also a more advanced and more powerful angency to pitch in.  All the gangsters had their own special impact on todays socity, while some where grater then others they are all important.

acrostic poems

People became angry over alcohol  
Raging through the streets
Over throwing the
Happiness of people
Inspecting homes and buldings
Before anyone could stop
It everything was gone
This started illegal bars
In the night, the
Only way in was to know the
Name of the pass word


Rolling in money
Over spending all day
Attending all the parties
Really enjoying life
Intentally doing bad
New types of women showed off their
Gams in the public
Taken by surprise other
Women felt
Everyone was
Never going to stop
Totally out of control
Intresting all the boys
Embracing the new age
Starting to lose control

Extra credit

Last friday was the school dance and it would have been the cats meow if it wasn't for the fire extinguishers there.  All of them think there the big cheese, but really there just lame.  The dance ended up being darb and someone pushed me and broke my cheaters.  But thats not even the worst part we left the dance early and we to the drug store to try to get the drug store cowboy to get us some giggle water but he was already drinking some and upchucked right in front of us.  I went  home and to my surprise my mom was there early from work and asked me to rub her dogs, how gross.  Nothing about last friday was berries.

treating

if you catch the prisoner they should not get treated nicely because if your in a war you should not be treated with respect because your killing others on the filed anyway. the long term effects would be haveing a mental problem and a short term effect would be having a cut or mark.

us delectation of war

the tone of the us delectation of war was saying that it was the germans fault and they deserved us joining the war.  The biggest words were government and german so they were probably mad at the government.  the german response was stating that the us has joined the war.

video games and violence

The video game has come a long way in the past few years, but there is a debate on weather war games such as call of duty cause people to act more violent if they are played more often.  I feel that if a person were to play a war game of a game with violence in it then it would not effect how violent the person was to begin with.  People will say that children who play the games will think that if you kill someone in real life then they will come back just like in the games they play, but I feel that even though they are children they will know what is real and what is fake.  Also if you are a parent of the child you should take the time to explain that a video game is not real life and that there will be concusses if they step out of line.  Another thing is that people can make their own minds up the game will not make there more violent if you play it the person would have to had been violent to begin with.  There are plenty of people that play games such as call of duty or grand theft auto but the people that play them do not automatically turn in to a bad person, it all depends on how you were raised and if the parent took the time to explain that video games and real life are not the same things.  If you do play something such as grand theft auto you do not just go around shooting people and stealing cars because we know that if we did it in real life we would get in trouble.  Now in real life there is no reset button so if you were to get a violent tendency after playing the games you probably should not be playing them.  But I feel that even if you were to play a video game that portrayed and war scene with violence and guns does not mean the person playing it will feel like it is ok to do the same thing in real life.  Even though when playing you will yell and seem more violent its just an in the moment kind of thing but once the game is over and you turn it off you are no longer the same violent angry person you are once again a normal person.  So the video game will not cause people to go on a crazy rampage though the city and think its ok to just shoot people and steal cars because there will be a "reset" button.  People may seem mad while playing the video games but it is just like a sport if you are loosing you get mad or if you are very competitive you will get more in to it but that does not mean it makes you a violent person.
