__**The Iraq war, as revealed by WikiLeaks**__

In this article about the Iraq war, it is stated that secret information has been released by WikiLeaks. This information included knowledge that said the Iraqi deaths were now at 100,000. That means there were 15,000 deaths that we didn’t know about. This shows us that the government has been lying to us for some time.

It was wrong that the government lied to us. Knowing that there were 15,000 deaths that we didn’t know about hurts. The U.S. troops indeed violated the rules due to their firing on innocent Iraqi civilians.

__**S****tudent goes on Shooting Spree**__

I find it very __**Eccentric**__ that sophomore, Colton Tooley would just go and put on a ski mask and fire bullets. This is a very __**inane**__ thought to process in my mind because in the article, it states that Colton is a math major with excellent grades. Nobody will every know why he did it, because as soon as police arrived, he went into a library and shot himself. I find this rather disturbing and i am still wonder what made him take 6 shots at a church and into the air. Hopefully police will clear things out and find out the story behind this tragic mystery.


 * Perhaps Tooley was eccentric, but you can't find what he did to be eccentric. Go into detail about why you think he might have done it or give us a little more insight into what repercussions this has for other schools around the country.**

__**Miracle Landing**__

After reading this article, i was amazed. To think that a man, Thomas Magil Survived a fall from 40 stories high. Although he broke his ankles and shattered his lungs, it is still interesting that he survived a huge fall just from landing on a dodge charger. I also feel bad for the car owner because her car was destroyed, but it was destroyed by somebody who was trying to end their life quickly. So you cant really get mad at Thomas because he was trying to end his life and if you say anything against him he might just go out and do it again.

__**Teen banned from U.S.**__

My reaction to this article is that Barack Obama reacted too strongly and that Luke Angel did not deserve his punishment. Due to his young age, i think Luke deserved a second chance and should of only been put in jail for a couple of weeks. I am amazed that Obama just went up and banned a kid from the country hes in charge of. Although, i respect Obama's choice in punishing Luke, because luke sent an unnecessary e-mail to the president of the U.S.


 * P= You had some very valid opinions on the subject.**
 * C= Work on giving us some more detail before you go into your reaction. Also, instead of saying "My reaction," just tell us what you think. Take an opinion and prove it to be true.**
