Which one? The Gay Marriage one looks pretty good! If I was going in I'd go for that one, because really there's no actual downside to gay marriage and you can hit back any argument of it!greenpyjamas wrote: »Good idea!

Yeah Either Gay Marriage, sentencing guidelines for criminals or the State and not the Family are the ultimate guardians of children all look good 0 -
True! The 1,000 words part might be difficult though! I'd be afraid that I'd get like 999 words and have writers block :Pgreenpyjamas wrote: »Yeah Either Gay Marriage, sentencing guidelines for criminals or the State and not the Family are the ultimate guardians of children all look good 0 -

I would love to do a literature course in college; I don't think studying writing styles is really part of the LC course, is it?
I get all excited when we do creative writing in class :')0 -

You are welcome!
Yeah, it's a touchy topic because a lot of adults are usually shocked to see how kids act towards kids who are 'different'at school, just because
Some people though can be really nasty, I know from personal experience!
If you don't blend in with the 'normal' people they'll be sure to point it out to you and everyone else!0 -
Exactly!! It's true! You need to fit in, or else you're a freak, but unfortunately it's not just in school this happensgreenpyjamas wrote: »You are welcome!

It's in the everyday world.. People with special needs, LGBT people even coloured people are still in 2012, looked down upon in society. It's totally wrong. 0 -

Agreed! Hopefully someday everyone will be equal, but it'll be hard to stamp out prejudice; I'd say it will take another few generations -.-0 -
