Sarah Palin Rips on the Budget Bill

Sarah Palin stated her opinion on the $1.1 trillion dollar budget bill passing a majority republican congress. She stated her shock that the bill passed as it included the new immigration amnesty in its budget. She stated, “The Republican leadership in the House just flipped American voters the bird by sidelining the new Congress we just elected.” She goes on to state her shellshock and simply hopes that the Republican voters receive extreme backlash by their constituents.


Former-Governor has ever reason to be disappointed in Republican Congressmen as this highly aggressive bill is so disapproved by many states. I agree that this bill seems to only make our future more bleak with ludicrous spending. I hope some sort of alternative is addressed for the sake of our economy. I don't understand how something so disapproved of was not compromised to more of an agreement.


Sarah Palin did a great job speaking her mind openly.

Louis Head was head figure in Ferguson riot

     Louis Head, the step-father of Michael Brown, is being investigated on the charge of inciting a riot. Michael Brown died when shot six times by officer Darren Wilson; Brown was unarmed. The riot that Louis Head may have provoked took place November 24th nearly two weeks after his step-son was killed. Riots have been taking place in Ferguson, Mo. after this Brown's death and many have been violent. More riots took place after Officer Darren Wilson was not indicted by a grand jury. Louis Head formally apologized for his actions of encouraging a riot stating that he let his emotions get the best of him and he was in the heat of the moment. he continues to say "to place blame solely on me for the conditions of our community, and country, after the grand jury decision goes way too far and is as wrong as the decision itself. To declare a state of emergency and send a message of war, and not peace, before a grand jury decision was announced is also wrong." The riots in Ferguson are to protest an injustice that has occurred and Head states that rioting does not truly represent their task well.
     I believe that the people in Ferguson responded to the Michael Brown tragedy in a way that is not as effective as it should've been. Many riots are extremely violent and many more people are being hurt than just the Brown/Head family. However, I think that a great injustice has occurred and some sort of motion should be put in place because any citizen who is unarmed or has not acted to threaten the life of an officer cannot be robbed of his right to live. The action of Darren Wilson was extremely unjust and disproportion to any threat Michael Brown could have made that it is ludicrous that he was not indicted. The people in Ferguson want to assure that no injustice could happen again, but I am afraid that that message is too difficult to receive when they are responding violently and only hurting others unjustly.
