Something that you should know

Seeing as how I just joined this site I feel it necessary to let you all know a bit about me and what my blogs will generally be about. My name is Veronica. I'm on both the debate and speech teams at my high school. I plan to become a lawyer. I've grown up a very hard life and because of it I know about and can advise on most any problem. Because I do debate and informative speech I am always trying to stay up to date on current events. That is what most of my blogs will be about. I'm very opinionated so if we disagree I'm sorry. But if you'd like me to talk about something specific or need some advice feel free to let me know. I'm always willing to help.

So let's jump right in. Right now I'm watching CNN headline news and the discussion of the 16 year old that killed her family. She, her boyfriend, and two other friends planned it out. The girl is somewhat safe in sentencing because a 16 year old cannot face the death penalty. But I do believe one of the others involved is 19 and can in fact face that charge. I hope this girl realizes what she got her friends into and feel the deepest remorse for what she did. Nothing can ever be worth murdering your family for, unless in self defense, which this was definitely not a case of.

Peaces!!

People that kill people except if you kill someone attacking you are missing the thing in their brain that tells them to stop or the remorse that follows. Most serial Killers have this they are missing a y chromosome I think, i forgot. This is normally what happens in people that kill, or they have psychological problems. But yeah that is pretty stupid to drag all her friends into it especially now a days because you will get caught. I never could understand how someone can kill anyone?

the problem here is that the girl didn't actually do the killing...she planned it and let her friends (all older males) carry out the plan...therefore I don't feel the least bit bad for the punishment she gets. I have no doubt that people that kill often do have something wrong with them, but when you plot your family's murder because they took away your cellphone and made you break up with your boyfriend, I'm not quite sure what the explanation would be.

Some more info on why you think you're qualified to give advice on "almost anything" would be interesting. :)

I try to see from other people's points of view and some of my "advice" is from what I have learned. I give you no reason to throw low blows at me I am just trying to help people out, you really don't have to be so rude kiota. I try my best to help anyone the best way I can. Sure my advice is not always correct but people make mistakes. I care about other people's feeling even yours, and what you said does hurt my feelings. And I am not going to give you an explaination to why I like to try to be a good person and help people. I may not know everything but I try the best I can to give logical advice.

I am here to inform and help:
