"I think that sex ed needs to be taught better in schools. A lot of places just use the scare factor and don't teach students how to have sex safely. I think that we need to accept that teenagers will have sex and that you can't really do anything to…"
"It kind of scares me that the department of health openly admitted to having a microchip in their vaccines. It is also scary that people got this microchips without their knowledge. I don't really think people are getting microchipped, but I guess…"
"I think this is really good news and it showing us the light at the end of the tunnel. The pandemic is finally coming to an end, so I think we should just keep opening things up and getting rid of masks. Obviously, unvaccinated people should still…"
"I personally really like MTSS. I have no study halls in my day so MTSS is a great opportunity to catch up on work and ask questions. I also really like the fun activities and games that some teachers have during MTSS. It really makes school a lot…"
"I think senators should have a term limit. I think that having one person in power for too long makes people complicit and can end up silencing them. When someone has been in office for so long, they're usually reelected because they continue to do…"
"I don't think fighting should get taken out of hockey. That's my favorite part of the game. I also think it helps prevent people from taking cheap shots during the game which probably prevents serious injury. However, I think that the refs need to…"
"I think we learn a lot of useless lessons. I think that we should learn the ones in the curriculum and the ones that teach us real life skills. However, I don't think we need to learn the random lessons that teachers don't have to teach and don't…"
"I think that having Karen as a name during the past few years hasn't been a super great time because people make "Karen" jokes towards you, but I don't think it really affects people that much. I think that the older generation finds the term Karen…"
"I think that we can help decrease poverty if we start giving people living in poverty jobs and education. I think that they should be willing to work, but should also be assisted in finding a job and getting that job. I don't think I could live…"
"I don't think shaving is important, and I don't care if other people shave or not. Personally, I don't like my legs to be hairy so I shave my legs. I don't like the look of unshaven legs and shorts, but I don't think it's gross and I wouldn't judge…"
"I think that we should raise the minimum wage, but not to $15. If everyone working minimum wage in Harlan gets paid $15 an hour, our prices would skyrocket and our unemployment rate would also increase as businesses would not make as much money. $15…"
"I think cancel culture is absolutely ridiculous. I don't think it should be trendy to ruin people's lives. Everyone has made a mistake at one point in their life, and I think that magnifying these mistakes for the entire world to see is cruel. Half…"
"I think that energy drinks will only be an issue if you drink them all the time. People are getting these symptoms from caffine withdrawels, which is normal. The whole issue with energy drinks is the amount of sugar and chemicals in them. I drink…"
"The only season I watched of the Bachelor was Colton's season. I'm very shocked about him coming out and didn't expect it at all. I'm not sure if a gay bachelor would be a good idea, the whole point of the show is that a bunch of people are fighting…"
"I think that cops need more training. They are often put in life and death situations, and I don't think they can be adequately trained for those situations in 21 weeks. I think that more training would make the cops better at deesclating situations…"
"I don't think that adoption agencies should be able to discriminate based on sexual preference. If these places really cared about finding homes for kids, this wouldn't be an issue. If the couple is fit to adopt, I don't see why they should be…"
"I don't think that the US should have a mandatory military service. A lot of people aren't cut out for the military and it may cause them mental or physical harm being forced to serve. Along with this, a lot of people have discontent for the…"
"I think that the police should stop being blamed for everything. If the officer hadn't shot MaKhia, then she would've stabbed and potentially killed the other girl. The police would then get backlash for allowing MaKhia to kill someone else. There's…"
"I think the activity period is a good choice and should be brought back. I have no study halls during the school day and getting home from sports at 6:30 everynight does not help my homework situtation. During the peak of basketball season, I was…"
"If I were a parent, I would only take my child's phone or go through it if they did anything to violate my trust. That's the rule at my house right now. No one will go through my phone unless I give them a reason to or a reason not to trust me with…"
"I think that steroid testing should happen at least twice during an athlete's season. Taking these drugs can get students in a lot of trouble, and I feel like if at least one person was caught, it would scare everyone else and convince them to stop…"
"I don't think Harlan should have a curfew. Big cities don't enforce their curfews, so I think that it is unfair to have a curfew in Harlan. Moreover, our curfew promotes reckless behavior. If someone is drunk at a party at 12am but needs to get home…"
"I think that it was a good choice to decline the mural. BLM has turned into a more violent and corrupt organization than what it was really intended for, and I think that is extremely sad. I don't think Phoenix wanted to promote the violence that…"
"I thinkt that this bill should be passed. Equal pay for equal work should not even be an argument up for debate. Women need to be paid the same as men as long as they are working the same amount of hours and doing that same job. I think that the…"
"I think that Westroads should have better security. This is the second shooting this month, and it is ridiculous that no extra measures have been taken to protect the mall. I think that metal detectors or some other sort of security measure needs to…"
"I think that we need to make changes in order to save marine life. Global warming has definitely affected the rate at which the earth heats, but I think our bad recycling and other bad environmental choices. It is our responsibility to prevent this…"
"I don't think that they should stop the roll-out of the vaccines. Many medications have blood clots as side effects, and it doesn't seem like the blood clots from the Johnson and Johnson vaccine is widespread. I think we need to make the same…"
"I think that smoking in public should be banned. Smoking has been proven to harm people who have never even smoked in their life because they inhale second hand smoke. By banning smoking in public, the number of people that smoke may decline and…"
"I don't think vaccine passports are ethical. While vaccines do help protect the population from illnesses, it should be a personal choice whether to become vaccinated or not. We don't require proof of a flu vaccine to travel, why should we require…"
"Like you said, Covid is just like any other flu shot / vaccine. However, we don't need proof of flu vaccines to travel in the country. Why should we need proof of a Covid vaccine then? It's a personal preference and belief about whether or not a…"
"I think our dresscodes are ridiculous. Girls are not allowed to wear tank tops to school, but our sports uniforms consist of tank tops. We can't wear tight fitting shorts, but we are expected to play volleyball in skin tight spandex. I think that…"
"I don't think that Derek Chauvin should be sentenced to life in prison. I think he should be charged with manslaughter as he did not mean to kill George Floyd. Floyd had drugs in his system at the time of his death, and I think that contributed to…"
"I don't think that the voting age is a good idea. Most people aren't mature enough to make important decisions at 16. For example, a lot of people voted for Kanye West (a joke canidate that didn't even want to win) just to be funny when we took the…"
"While Ivy Leagues allow you to make connections, most college programs around the country do that as well. I think that you can make good connections and find good jobs/ internships without having to go to an Ivy League."
"I agree with you. Movies and Tv shows make it seem like it's super easy to get into top tier schools, but that's not the case in real life. Like you said, there are better ways to spend your time and money. "
"I also think that Ivy Leagues are overrated. You can get a great education at plently of other less expensive schools without having to do nearly as much work to be accepted. "
"I don't think that just because someone is extremely smart means that they should go to an Ivy League. I think that they also need to be hardworking and well-rounded. This is why I think it's a waste of time to go there, doing all this work isn't…"
"I totally agree with you. It seems like every Disney character gets into top tier schools, which creates unrealistic expectations for little kids watching these shows. I also don't think the hardwork it takes to get into an Ivy is worth it. "
"I also think that you can get a good education at another school that isn't an Ivy. I think that the standards that are put on the students that go to Ivy Leagues are extreme and could potentially be damaging to mental health. "
"I also think that you can get a similar quality of education from another college that isn't an Ivy League and save lots of money while doing it. Personally, I don't think the debt that comes with an Ivy League is worth it. "
"I agree with you about this. I think that most of these colleges are only concerned about their reputation and not about the type of education they are giving. I think that the only good thing that comes from graduating from one of these schools is…"
"I disagree with you, by going to an Ivy League school you are putting yourself in major debt without really any benefit besides having a fancy school name to put on a diploma. "
"I think that male birth control is a great idea. Normally, when a accidnetly pregnancy occurs, it is usually the guys fault more than the girls. This is why I feel like men should shoulder some of the responsibility and not only rely on women for…"
"I agree with you. I think that the time and effort it takes to get into these schools doesn't really put you ahead when it comes to the grand scheme of things. The work it takes is definitely not worth it. "
Harvard receives over 43,000 college applications every year; however, they only accept 2,000 students. Yet, they are known as one of the most prestigious colleges in the country. From a young age, movies, parents, and society has impressed upon us…
"I would feel super embarassed if I was the captain of the boat that got stuck. Obviously, it wasn't entirely his fault, but it'd still be embarasssing to literally cut off world trade for a week. It's unstuck now, but it was definitely a costly…"
"I think that it is incredibly sexist and unfair that this happened. By depriving women atheletes of weights but providing more than enough for the men, the NCAA is openly being sexists towards athletes. They have millions of dollars and plenty of…"
"I think that women may be dying because of an increase in health problems within our society. Our obesity rates are only rising and that probably doesn't contribute to a mother's safety while giving birth. I think that we need to make changes as a…"
"I think that voter fraud is an issue with American elections. There are way too many opportunities to commit fraud during our election process. Some states don't even make sure that voters are citizens before allowing them to cast their ballots. I…"
