They were invited to Halloween party. When they reached the party it was a good amount of people in there. “You guys I’m not drinking tonight.” Said Jessie. “You can thought.” The group of teens partied like it was the 4th of July. Towards the end of the party the teens was wrapping it up and hitting the road. On their way back home, they caught a flat tire and their phones had no service out in the backwoods where they had difficulties at. It was a little light in the woods and they thought that was going to be their only way of getting help with their car trouble. The group of friends walked through some woods to reach their destination. Once they had reached the little light there was a house, so they knocked on the door. Once they knocked a white man stepped to the door. He was tall and had the dullest look on his face. “May I help you?” said the man with no energy. “Yes, my name is Jessie. My friends and I are having car trouble and we need help. Do you have a phone we could use to call someone?” without hesitation the man said “Come in.” When they walked in they saw pictures of the man with some woman who appeared to be his wife. “So are you married?” asked Jessie. “No.” said the man plainly. “Right…” said Jessie. “The phone is in here. Come.” Jessie went in the back with the man who introduced himself as John Clever. Jessie friends sat on the couch until Jessie came back. When Jessie …show more content…

He was still hearing her weep like a kid who touched a hot stove. Once Chris got to the back he saw Jessie on the bed in severe pain. He walked in and told her not to say a word. “Please get me out of here Chris!” said Jessie. “I got you, hold on.” Chris freed Jessie from the rope that was holding her down to the bed. They both ran for the door. *shkkk shkkk* POW! John was right behind them and he blew a hole right through Chris’s torso. “I’m going to get you. You’re the girl who killed my wife in that car accident.” Cried John. Jessie screamed and ran out of the woods where she regrouped back with Carly and Scott. They jumped back in the car and started to head up the road away from where they was with a flat tire. On their way up the road the seen a cop and started to flash the headlights and that got the attention of the officer. The officer asked, “Everything alright?” “No, this man just killed my boyfriend and held me captive and we got a flat tire and our phones have no service and……” Jessie was in a panic. “Slow down, slow down.” Said the officer. “Breaker breaker. I need all units out here at 1234 Halloween Drive. Got a kidnapping and a possible

When the three got closer 20 they could make out what it was and it was a human figure. The figure got right up 21 to them and then they knew they were in trouble. It was Jason from Friday The 13th. 22 Tyler and TJ were smart they ran when they recognized him.

the country to its monetary struggle. As ensued as tenth successor of the country, John Tyler lacked in securing a more adept union and was incapable of possessing an accomplished presidency. He continually declined to nationally accommodate to Congress’s political positions, by vetoing the establishment of the national bank with branches in various states. This sparked a reprisal among the Whigs who expelled John Tyler from their party, as well as compelled his entire cabinet to resign. This added further perspective as to why it was vital for there to be a relationship between Congress and the President of the United States; as it tends to affects our Nation’s well being.
During the Antebellum Era, slavery was about one-third of the South’s population. The Antebellum Era was the period before the Civil War broke out. The South’s economy was booming which was credited to slavery. Their argument about slavery was that slaves were necessary and important to their economy. It would kill their economy if they got rid of slavery. Slavery was the foundation of their economy. Without any slaves, cotton would not be able to be produce. Nearly 60 % of their exports was cotton. Southerners would also point out that slaves were better working in plantations than working in a northern factory. According to them, the North had bad workplaces and long hours. They insisted that slaves were cared for and helped when they needed it unlike the North. However, slaves were still treated bad in the South. They would resist slavery in a variety of ways. For example, running away was one form of resistance. The most common form of resistance was known as “day-to-day” resistance which were
“If there is any period one would desire to be born in, is it not the age of Revolution; when the old and the new stand side by side...when the glories of the old can be compensated by the rich possibilities of the new era? This time...is a very good one.”
Social stratification as defined by Brinkerhoff et al. is “an institutionalized pattern of inequality in which social statuses are ranked on the basis of their access to scarce resources” (Brinkerhoff et al. 152). By scarce resources, many people have to deal with poverty and having a lack of money to buy the things they need in their lives. Social class is defined as “a category of people who share roughly the same class, status, and power and who have a sense of identification with each other” (Brinkerhoff et al. 155). Your social class has to do with your socioeconomic status along with the power and connections you have. Social mobility on the other hand is “the process of changing one’s social class” (Brinkerhoff et al. 153).

The T.V. starts flashing, a red banner with the word ‘urgent’, a woman's voice starts talking. “This is a PSA for the town of Lassellsville and surrounding areas. There is said to be a strange man on a rampage running through the town, he is believed to be infected with a new virus called H1N1, please stay inside for your safety, we will keep you updated as much as possible. Police are on the lookout for Juan Carlos Jr.,” a picture of a Hispanic man with red eyes, dark brown hair, and missing teeth popped up on the t.v. “please if you see this man refrain from contact, he is dangerous, I repeat he is dangerous.” Everyone looked at each other, “oh god” John said. “Lock the doors,” Katherine said. So they locked the doors and kept the news on to keep updated. A few hours past and the fear subsided and so did any buzz they had gotten. The news comes back on and they still hadn't found the guy when all of a sudden the tv went off and so did the lights. It was totally dark. “Friggin Christ, you gotta be kidding me” Jacob uttered. “I got this. the generator is right outside”, Gabriella said and started towards the door, there came a knock.

The confederate battle flag, also known as the old Dixie flag strikes as a controversial topic. The flag sparks many ideas as to what it represents, symbolizes, and is viewed as by the general public. Given the the history behind the flag one should have a chance to see an explanation of the true meaning and history of the flag before choosing a stance. It will show the true meaning of America and history. The Dixie flag should not be banned or made illegal in any county, city or state. During the civil war the flag was created for the confederate states of the civil war to identify the soldiers of the south. Today many people view it as racist or as a white supremacist symbol. The true meaning of the war and why it was fought was not about
Imagine walking down a United States’ city street during the 1930s and 1940s. As you passed shops, businesses, and restaurants, you would probably see two things: advertisements for the war and signs saying white or black people only. The Jim Crow laws and World War II are both significant part of United States history. Even though this was a pretty controversial time in history, the events that took place helped mold the United States into what it is today.
Equality: the monumental segment fought over for centuries, faced one of its biggest challenges in 1965. Selma to Montgomery, the march that shook a nation, is considered one of the most influential timestamps of fairness. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 attempted to combat the controversy of equality by forbidding segregation in public places, as well as prohibiting discrimination based off sex, color, race, origin and religion. This, however, was only the inauguration of a collection of moments aimed at shaping the future. In November of 1964, Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and his administrative group, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, also known as SCLC, developed a campaign aimed towards allowing African Americans the right to partake in voting.
Controversy over the flying of the Confederate flag is rampant in today’s society. Specifically, whether the flags should be flown in public places such as schools, courthouses, and capitols. The Confederate flag has been flown over many state capitol buildings. Men across the southern half of the United States died simply for the ideas of that very flag. The flag memorializes the sons of the South who died during the Civil War. The men who lost their lives battling for the Confederacy were not simply fighting over slavery, they were engaging in battle for other very important factors such as trade, tariffs, and state rights. The Confederate flag should be allowed to be flown over public places such as schools, courthouses, and capitols because it captures the essence of American
