OMG!! I can't believe what Alex said. I mean what if the government does have control of oue brain, we just don't know it. Wow how do we know anything?
LaurenC- I know that saying things like that aren't meant offensively but it can be made out that way. Especially with race since it has been such a big deal throughtout human history with discrimination. I think stuff like that is around so people all know that that is what is supposed to be said so no one's feeling get hurt. I think politically correctness is the most acceptable form of censorship because it just tries to make things easier for us. I know a lot of people still use the technically politically incorrect terms but I don't think it really matters. I think people just want to try to settle our differences.
good point mattw, but if we had a parent that was prejudice then we would hear what their thoughts about it were,so then we would most likely take after them.
Like ms. smith said, we dont know this is working. one hundred years ago, people'd freak out if they saw a girl in pants, buying corn at a store. just twenty years ago, somebody would freak out if they saw an emo
HOLY CRAP!!!! THERE WAS A CANADIAN REVOLUTION!!!!!! WHY DIDN'T i KNOW?!?!?!?!!?
i would like to apologize for typing in what you would call chatspeak. I did not realize and still am unsure that it was not allowed on the blog and that we agreed on it at the beginning of the year. Mrs. Smith corrected me and i will not be typing like this anymore.
ATTENTION EVERYONE: I UNDERSTAND WHY IT IS CALLED THE SALAMANDER AND THE HEATH Montag has a salamander on his fireman uniform so he is the salamander and a heath is a wasteland overgrown with shrubs which is the society in which montag lives because it is overgrown or covered up with shrubs or lies from the government. Isnt that cool!!!!
