Response to "Judge Rejects Couple's Argument for Refusing Gay Customers." Article

I believe that the judge should have not rejected the couple’s argument. They shouldn’t have been denied by the photography business. It is wrong every person, couple, whatever it may be has their own rights as a person, just because you are gay, bi, straight, you still should have the same rights as everyone else. I believe that the judge should have listened to the couple and gave them the chance to speak what they wanted, because it is one of their rights according to the constitution. I feel that beans the judge didn’t give the couple a chance to speak it was violating the 14^th amendment. The couples right to the 14^th amendment was violated because they didn’t get equal rights. If it was with a couple that was a male and a female the photography business would have allowed to shoot their wedding pictures. But beans it was a same-sex marriage the photography business denied the couple. This is just wrong, they are just like every other human on this planet, except they don’t like the opposite gender. Love is love it doesn’t matter if you are gay, bi, straight everyone should have the same rights and eligibility, just like it says in the U.S. Constitution.

Earliest Memory

Earliest Memory: I was almost 2 when I would do this memory. Going to my Grandma Norma's house and standing in her kitchen cupboard watching her cook and wash dishes.

Analysis: I think this is my first memory because my parents would always tell me stories about when I would stand in the cupboard at my grandma's house and show me pictures of me standing in the cupboard. I also think this is my first memory because I always get reminded by my family that the cupboard was the first place I would always go when I got to my grandma's house. I believe it stays in my mind because I always look at the pictures of me standing in the cupboard at my grandma's house.

Earliest Lie: I was around 4 when I remember telling my first lie. In my now current bedroom, it used to be our toy room I would always color on the walls with marker, crayon, basically anything I could get my hands on. I would always blame it on my siblings and I would never get in trouble because I was the oldest and they always believed me that I never did anything wrong. Things have changed since I was 4.

Propose an Amendment

Proposed Amendment: Making it illegal for all people, professional and nonprofessional for it to be ok that they sit, kneel, or stay in the locker room during the National Anthem. Those that fail to obtain to this amendment shall have to pay a fine that will be determined in the court of law.

Why: Because I think it is morally wrong. People who do this think that they are protesting President Trump, they really aren't. I feel as if the people who are doing this aren't clear on what they are doing, almost as like they are confused. It is wrong because people put their lives on the line to fight for our country so we could have freedom and the flag means freedom was reached. Each color represents something that we can have being free citizens of the United States, and the National Anthem is one way to memorialize the United States flag. I feel as if all the people kneeling, sitting, and staying in the locker room are not respecting the United States flag and the National Anthem. The National Anthem is the song that was wrote stating that we are free and the home of the brave. It says in the song that we are free and we the United States are the home of the brave. The brave are those that chose to give up their life so that ours could be better, and some even died for us. I feel if this Amendment were to get passed that a lot of people would be angry because it is violating their first amendment rights. Well, I feel as if the people that think this are wrong, I feel that they aren’t respecting the flag during the National Anthem and that they are doing wrong by not paying attention during the National Anthem and respecting the flag. I think that people who fail to obtain standing and putting your right hand over your heart shall have to pay a fine that will be determined in the court of law. I feel that this should be done because going to jail seems too much for a punishment and not doing anything at all is too little of a punishment.

Question 5: What did the experimenters do to the subjects?

Answer 5: They had to study the movement of the protein, so they used a technique called molecular dynamics.

Question 6: How did the subjects react?

Journal Entry

Why would I want to study psychology? I wanted to join psychology because I want to learn how our minds work and comprehend things. I want to learn this because I feel that it is important for everyone to know how our mind comprehends to certain situations. I think it would be cool to learn how you mind responds to different situations such as a relative passing away or scoring a point in a basketball game. I want to know how, and why our minds respond the way they do. I feel like knowing how our mind functions this way will help me be able to respond to things better. Learning how and why the brain comprehends things and works is what I hope to gain from taking psychology in high school. 

What I hope to gain from my experience in psychology class is the ability to know how someone is feeling and the ability to help someone through a situation, so they don’t have to do it alone. What I want to gain from you being our teacher for psychology is knowing how to have fun in class, but at the same time to be serious and to get homework done and handed in on time. What I also hope to gain from you being our teacher is your ability to teach and tell other people how the brain works and comprehends to certain situations.
