Last week at Parkway West High School, the seniors held a health fair as a part of their senior project. the health fair mainly contained like healthy eating, STD protection and the importance of using condoms and abortion and things of that nature. the seniors brought in speakers to come out and talk to some of the younger grades about the topic of their projects. they had free condoms and they were handing out fruit. and they were asking questions about your health.

i liked the health fair. i think it was a good way to show underclassmen that health is important and that you should be careful of the things you do. it was a good way to teach kids how to stay healthy and stay on top of being healthy and making sure they used condoms if they were sexually interactive. some of the guest were asking questions and one of them happened to be "If you were about to have a sexual intercourse and you weren't sure if the person you were going t do it with was infected or not , would you ask them to put on a condom." most of the students replied yes. i was one of them. overall the health fair did god i enjoyed it. it was a way of them showing that they care abut youths health.

Over a month ago Trayvon Martin was murdered by George Zimmerman, a local watch person. the news was released on wednesday. he was charged with 2nd degree murder. new say that "the decision wasnt based on prosecuted by public pressure or by petition. We prosecute based on the facts in any given case, as well as the laws of the state of Florida."  this child was killed over two months ago and they just come to an agreement. Zimmerman will be incarsarated for the rest of his life.http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/04/12/tagblogsfindlawcom2012-blotter-idUS371331303320120412

i think this was a good decision because you cant have a killer walking around the streets. you cant have somebody walking around waiting for a new victim. that murderer could be on a killing spree. they could be linked up to a lot of other murders and you would never know because you think he is innocent because of their race. you cant base everything on ace and this case was basically based on race. george should have bee arrested for more than just murder. he should be arrested for holding  fire arm. did the police ask him for a liscence for the fire arm that he murdered Trayvon with. i just think that race shouldnt be the way you look at a person.
