"I agree, his charges would have been less severe, he should have just told to parents and admitted to THEM that he did it."

"I agree, and the child was already at home (I failed to mention that), so it would have been much easier to just tell the parents. "

"I agree, people have to suffer with her loss because he didn't know what to do. All he had to do was simply tell her parents what happened. "

"I agree, the family is devastated, all because he couldn't admit his wrongs. He should have just told the parents what happened and excepted what would happen next. "

"I agree, his charges wouldn't be as bad if he just told the parents and got her checked out."

"I agree, panic doesn't give anyone the right to kill a young girl, or even anyone for that matter."

"I agree, he should have told the parents or simply drove away, his punishments would have been much better."

"I agree, this topic is very sad. I just don't understand why he wouldn't tell the parents. I get he was panicked but his charges wouldn't be as terrible, and that girl would still have her life. "

"I agree, her peers and family are mourning, and yes accidents happen, the girl was uninjured as he says, therfore he should have just told the parents. "

"I agree with you, he should have owned up to what he did. The little girl was helpless and uninjured therefore he should have just told her parents what happened. "

"I agree, he should not have kidnapped nor killed her in the first place. He should have accepted what he did and should have told the parents."

"I agree, her family and peers are probably mourning right now, he should have told the parents what happened. "

"I agree, especially since he claims that she had no injuries. "

"I agree, teachers don't normally get paid enough, especially in small towns. Then again you have to realize small towns are of course like the name, small. Therfore, I don't think you should expect a lot. I understand that teachers don't want to…"

"I think that Mickey Joseph should and will get fired. If he doesn't get fired I think that Nebraska will get a lot of hate. If it's true that cops left with bruises on their face then there is physical proof that it was domestic violence happening.…"

"I think doing forum posts is neccessary because it gives you an easy grade (If you can remember them). I do understand the people who don't like doing the forum posts because yes, they are really easy to forget. Even though I understand that, you…"

"I think legalizing marajuana would just lead to accidents. Many people tend to do stupid things while smoking this substance. Although, legalizing wouldn't really do much, many people just do it illegally. Even though I think that legalizing it…"

"I think women should be allowed to serve in combat roles. Women can do what a man can, as long as she puts her mind to it. Although men are typically stronger than women it doesn't mean that women aren't strong at all. It also seems that women tend…"

"I think we should add one these. Probably the ice rink over the roller rink, just because ice skating would be much funner in my opinion. I think it would make more people want to join in on some Harlan activities. It would just be fun to have an…"

"I think oil spillings are terrible for the environment. If I was already planning to cut my hair, then yes I would donate the cuttings. I don't think hair salons here in Iowa would donate any of the hair they cut just because we don't live by an…"

"I think beauty pageants should be banned. It creates standards on young girls and women that's not healthy at all. It makes them feel as though their not good enough, or pretty enough, even though in reality their beautiful. Sometimes if your…"

"As a freshman, I don't actually know how it's been before. From remarks I've heard I think it should go back to normal. It would honestly be nice to also have an open campus lunch. I also think that we don't have enough time to study, especially…"

"I don't think anyone should be hitting others in the first place. I think even if the woman hits first that she should get in just as much trouble. I say this, but I don't think men should hit woman back. Just because typically men seem to be…"

"I personally think Black Friday can be good or bad for a small buisness. If they went really down like big buisnesses do then they wouldn't make much money. If they set a realistic profitable price on things, then yes it could be good for them. "

"The social media platform I personally use is just instagram, but that is not entirely my choice. What I mean is it's the only one I'm "aloud" to have. I personally think social media can be both positive and negative. Although theres a lot of…"

" No, teachers should not hit their students, it's not the right way to teach them. I honestly do think it should be illegal to hit your students. It's just not right, there are some different ways to teach and dicipline someone. Discipline should be…"

"I personally don't think that I'm addicted to my computer of phone. I could go a day without these technologies, but yes it is nice to have them. I think people get addicted to their phones and computers because they don't take breaks. What I mean…"

"I think men should be able to go paternity leave. They would be able to help the mother, other wise she would be left home alone. The father is going to want time with his new child just as much as the mother does. Both the mother and the father are…"

"Yes, people do celebrate christmas early, I do understand why though. Although I understand, I don't think that decorations should be put up RIGHT after Halloween. I understand if you were to decorate about a week before Thanksgiving. After…"

"I think the smoking age should be 21 years old. I say this because your brain and body are still developing at 18. Smoking is not good for health, therfore It should be raised to an older age. If at all possible I personally think it should be…"

"I personally don't think it affects how you behave. Even though I think this, I don't think that 5 year olds aka little kids, should be listening to such songs. I state this becuase they don't know any better so they might copy the movements or…"

"I don't think that pitbulls should be banned. Normally they are very sweet dogs, its just the environment around them causing them to be aggressive. Pitbulls are just dogs and should be treated well, no differently. I think that If someone were to…"

"I think schools should have security cameras keeping them out of locker rooms, bathroom, and classrooms. I say classrooms also because I don't think it would be very comfortable having one in the classroom. Around the school would be great, If…"

"I don't think ag classes should be required. Not all people are planning to work on a farm, or doing something in that industry. Having this class required would take away other optional classes. Making this a required thing could lead to many other…"

"I do not think that extra-curricular activities should be required. Some people have things to do after school like homework, chores, work, helping out with other things. Having this as a mandatory thing could possibly put a lot of stress on some…"

"I don't think students should have to go through a security search everyday before school. I don't see why it would be necessary which such a small town and school like Harlan. Now, if it were a bigger city and bigger school then yes, I would…"

"I personally think that online school should be an option. Although I say this, I wouln't  prefer it. I would much rather do  in person school. I think that if everyone did online school many might not do their work, or could possibly have a better…"

"I think students should have the right to choose their classes. Now I understand if we have to take a class like math. On things like History and Science I think it just needs to be basic. Although those classes would be basic with it being…"

"I think food prices have gone up a little to far. Families with low income rely on basic grocieries like this, how else are they supposed to feed their families? With fast food restaurant prices going up, I personally think it should lower back…"

"Yes, I think learning cursive should be a requirment. I think this may possibly need to be retaught, because not everyone knows how to write it, I do but not completely. This would be benificial in matter of writing your signature on important…"

"I personally do think it should be moved to Saturday. It would allow the kids to get ready all day, and possibly have a sleepover with their friends. This would allow older people/parents to throw parties at later times without worrying about their…"

"Yes, I think we should have an optional self defense class. I personally do not know self defense but would not mind learning it. This class would benifit in many different ways to every student, even if the student were persay strong. "

"I think that signing out on a piece of paper is just so much easier. With this who QR code thing it just takes such a hassle. You have to fill it out and sometimes that takes a while, longer than signing out on paper would. With just dropping…"

"I agree, as long as their doing it safely and not killing many innocent people then yes it should be allowed. "

"I agree, if these techniques went right and were safe then it could be benificial. "
