Silvia Soriano    The True Extremist on Abortion By Tom Trinko    1/29/13

                                                           Reading Respnse

                       Abortion something that has America, and probably the whole world argues against. Killing lifes a crime or not? After reading True Extremist On Abortion by Tom Trinko, I found out that President Obama supported abortion. More than half of America do also. Not many people knew about the law. Some people did  but didnt know clearly about how the law was made, what were the terms of the law, conditions, and all of the little details. Presidents have talked about the issue. States have put up their own laws about what their opinion is. They have put what is aloud and what isnt. What they have to be (Age) to get one. How far along they have to be. Is abortion supported by?  Are We well aware of this? Or do we just think we are.

           In the Article The True Extremist on abortion by Tom Trinko,  it says President Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama. Mr. Obama supported the idea of abortion. "Is a good thing, most Americans who support abortion think that it is, under certain circumstances, an unfortunate necessity" said Mr.President Obama. Cause of President of Obama many people have started to support it. One person does make a huge impact on many of other people. On the other hand, President Bill Clinton didnt, President Clinton wanted to keep the whole "Abortion " Situation out of peoples and publics point of view. Back in those days the congress had banned Abortion just because of one person. Laws were made cause of that, that to get an abortion you needed your parents yes. You had to be a certain age. People listen to each other and take action.

          I asked myself a question while reading the article. Did the presidents have a good reason to support it and to not support it. President Obama apposed a bill/ law in Illinois  about 3 times. In the article it says "Obama voted three times against a bill, identical to the Born Alive Infant Protection Act supported at a federal level by ardent pro-aborts, that would require medical care for a baby who survives an abortion." In the article it says that Barack Obama never said he was against it. If he was, why would he? Did He or one of his family members ever get an abortion. Thats why he support it. Did he think that maybe some babies were mistakes? In the article it says that " Obama appears to be trying to justify the murder through inattention of a born human being because the mother wanted to kill the child". Maybe he just had a big heart? Or maybe he wanted people to live life the way they wanted to and planned to.

          Sometimes you get filled with what seems is right but is wrong. Your mind tricks you it tricks you into thinking things are fine but their not, nothing is right. You get tricked by people who are also being tricked. Abortion...a hard subject, for everyone to talk about and agree with. No one will ever probably agree if its right or wrong, cause their is no correct answer.

Silvia Soriano                      Haunted  By P.C. Cast+ Kristine Cast                            Jan.14.13

                                       How does this text address the points of view (perspectives) of other groups,                     especially those who usually don’t get to tell their side?

                     In the book the Hunted by P.C. Cast and Kristine Cast, its all about a girl named Zoey, who attends a school for vampire fledglings with special powers. Zoey and her friends must stop Neferet an evil force that is growing and has taken over the school. Zoey and her friends must use their gifts from Nyx their goddess  to help destroy Neferet. Zoey has to also chose between fixing her ex relationship or to take a chance  with Stark a boy who died in her arms who, out of no where comes back to life. But doesn't go back to being the person who he was, he has been charmed into Nerfert ways. Zoey has to also be careful with what she does, cause her sick grandmother could pay the consequences. She has to also make sure that the humans, her old friends and family and everyone else doesn't get hurt or killed by Nerfert. Zoey will have to trust her enemies and watch her friends turn into the enemies. 

                     In the book the Hunted by P.C. Cast and Kristine Cast, I say that the person that usaully doesnt get to tell his point of view is Damien. Zoey protector. He has fallen in love with Aphrodite, who has forcelly imprinted with a another vampire. In the book he doesn't get mad about the whole situation, he is very supported. He says its all for saving a life.  We dont really see what he really is feeling towards the whole problem. We dont see his ideas, thoughts about. We also dont really see him talking about the whole problem to anyone, expressing his feelings to anyone. He is like the character that keeps everything to himself. The quite one that mostly doesnt have a saying or a comment or even a thought against it. He just goes with the flow, like he is scared his opinion doesn't count, or it just simply wont be heard. 

                       On the other hand, I think that Erik, Zoey ex boyfriend is the one that usually doesn't get to tell his point of view . He and Zoey have gone through so much problems and drama, we dont hear or find out the real feelings he is going through. when Zoey cheated on him. The reaction he had when he found out that Zoey slept with someone else. What he was thinking when he was leaving the school, to go do what he was always meant to do. Why did he leave right after zoey cheated on  him? Was Zoey a push factor or a pull factor? In my opinion Zoey just helped make his dissuasion of leaving, maybe he didnt want to leave cause the only thing keeping him at the school was Zoey. Now that zoey and him were no longer together, he felt that he had nothing to keep him at the school. I wanted to know what he felt when he asked Zoey to get back together. When did he decide to forgive Zoey and why did he do that. What was his thoughts about returning with zoey and to the school. Did anyone help him finally decide what he wanted to do?

 in                    In My opinion both this characters would be a perfect fit to the whole point of view question. They both have such great communication to the main character Zoey. They both have so much do with Zoey, they are a huge part of her life. They both have made a big difference in everyone that has been hurt, or is trying to protecting everyone else. They both have a job to protect Zoey no matter what. Erik as Zoey boyfriend and Damien as Zoey Protector. 

                  In Conclusion Hunted by P.C. Cast and Kristine Cast is a book that keeps everyone wondering, who is thinking what and why. It gives readers chills while they read deeper into the book, figure out secrets and thr truth behind everyone.
