EOC:week 3 Rolling Stones

                The Boston Bombing Suspect appeared on the front cover of The Rolling Stones magazine latest issue. 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was known by many as his friends and people around him as a great kid. He claimed he didn't want to have to kill innocent people but the United States government kills innocent Muslims every day in Iraq or even I Afghanistan. He and His brother used pressure cookers that would act as bombs were set off at the marathons finish line. These bombs killed 3 people the youngest being an 8 year old boy, and injured 300 people with flying shrapnel.  Tsarnaev and his brother’s conduct did intentionally cause injuries to the victims so there go factual cause. He took full responsibly for the attack and said “I can't stand to see such evil go unpunished. We Muslims are one body, you hurt one, and you hurt us all," The other brother who was known to friends as Tim was an aspiring Olympic boxer. The both were to the public just as American as everyone else around. They smoked lots of weed as well according to friends. The oldest brother Tim was gunned down by police when they caught up to him he was found in a boat. Many Americans are mad about Jahar being on the cover of this magazine. He and his brother planned this attacked and went through with it. “There have been more than 25 plots to strike the United States hatched by Americans, most of which were ill-conceived or helped along by undercover operatives who, in many cases, provided their targets with weapons or other materials.”- Janet Reitman. Both of these brothers had no Duty Due care when planning this attack. They could have killed so many others as well that day. This is also a case of Ultra hazardous Activity because of the fact they had explosives that can do harm to people. The building around them also set fire. Arson is both state and federal crimes. There is so much this case will bring out and the victims will get justice. There no other option.

EOC Week 2:Stand your Ground Law


Florida was the first state to have the Stand Your Ground Law. The stand your ground law means Justifiable use of Force can be used if you feel your life is in danger. If you feel your life is in danger you have the right to protect yourself at all cost even if it means deadly force. This Law has been under speculation because of the George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin case that took place in Sanford, Florida where an unarmed 17 year Trayvon Martin was killed by the Neighborhood Watch Captain George Zimmerman.  George Zimmerman said that Trayvon Martin attacked him and he had to shot him because he was smashing his head on the concrete and he felt he was about to die. The media got involved in this case because George Zimmerman was not arrested until weeks later and was charged with second degree murder. He was proven not guilty of 2nd Degree Murder. Hugh Duvall a Criminal Defense Attorney said “A verdict of "not guilty" can mean a verdict of "not proven.” The prosecution did not have enough evidence to prove George Zimmerman guilty. Now this law has brought people from different states to either defend it to disagree with it. There has been protest concerning the stand your ground law. Florida Governor Rick Scott met with protestors and said “There will not be a special session to change the stand your ground law in the state.” I can see how the Stand your Law could help someone in situations that you need to use force but when a Teen is killed and they don’t live to tell their story who really knows what happened besides the one who is still alive. Anyone can go out and pick a fight and then kill someone. What about the person who is killed there story is not told because their life was ended. George E. Curry wrote in an article “Trayvon Martin was just standing his Ground.”

Week 1:My Voice


I am the future of film and I will continue to be the best I can be. I grew up with an imagination and luckily I never lost it. I continue to impress myself on a daily basis because I don't give up on anything. Ideas come to my head a lot so I write them down and I never lose track of what my goals are. I believe we all can accomplish anything. My family raised me into a woman who is very passionate about what I do so I will never go through life wishing I would have done that or what I could have done. I attempt everything I put my mind to. Film caught my attention when I was in middle school and it has gained such love from me. I don't even see things the way others see them. I turn everything into a plot or into a funny situation even when things seem bad. I make my friends laugh so much they cry. I am really just a great person to know. I love comedies and I am really afraid of watching Scary Movies. My family says they are predictable so how can they still be scary, but they don’t understand how I am still afraid of them.Once I set  my mind on this film making I couldn't be stopped. I was an athlete in high school and everyone thought that I would at least go far with that,but it was something I wasn't really eager about anymore. I really love movies with a positive story in them.So much imagination and I don't feel I have enough  time. on my spare time I go to churches and set up there presentation system so on Sunday services people can look at the t.v screens and sing along. I don't even bother charging people when it comes to stuff like that because it is a good cause. My mother and father don't have any background in film so I am like the oddball in my family,but I cant be stopped. I am very passionate about this because film can touch so many people. whether you go to the movies or not you will see some of my work because my plan is to get out there and stay  out there. When I came to Las Vegas I wanted to continue to grow in my field and that's what I plan to do. Film doesn't have to be copied film is how you can put words into picture and get emotions and make people feel for what they are seeing. film can be funny,sad,dramatic or all of those but what film cant be is stopped by anyone of us.
