Today we went over the maps. That test is either Wednesday or Thursday, I really need to study!! We talked about gay marriage.
Here are some little notes:
- 9 states enable same-sex marraige
- 9 people on the supreme court
We also continued blog discussion over our 911 topic:
- The Patriot Act was passed right after 911. It gave the government more potential to find things out about terrorists.
- Security changed; airports, stadiums, etc. At many places you were forced to get checked for guns, knifes, etc.
- It led to war w/ Afghanistan
- Osama Bin Laden's original country was Saudi Arabia
- Bin Laden was a millionaire due to their family construction business
- Seal Team 6 killed him by shooting him 3 times
- Went to war with Afghanistan in 2001
Tomorrow we're continuing the topic, but not discussion. We're watching the video with President Bush.
