Octoplets

The newly famous octuplets entered this world with much critic about their mother. People may think it is a blessing to have 8 children but what if your a single mom with no job no career and 3 kids. This recently famous mother explains her story throughout all the world. Fox news showed an interview where she spoke about her dream of having a big family. Many people have attacked her like all other celebrities saying she's an irresponsible and selfish mother who puts her needs first. Just like a celebrity her personal information was dug into and little by little rumors where being brought up. For instance there are claims that she had plastic surgery to inflate her lips to look like Angelina Jolie which she denies completely. At the moment the mother believes that she is capable of taking care the kids and she will need government assistant but shes not the only one in the world using tax payers money therefore why do they judge her for that. Another student in the class speaks about the mother in a very negative way the link is below.

CHILD ABUSE

In my opinion, yes she might have been selfish having such a large family without being financial stable but thats her choice. I believe the media should leave her alone and let her live her life shes just another single mother who needs financial help to help with her 14 children. JUST LET HER BE AND STOP MAKING A BIG DEAL!!!!

What makes this case so special???

Around the world, everyday there is women out there who are being physically abused by their significant other. Does anyone ever hear of it? Do people make a big deal? Rarely ever is domesticated violence in the news unless it gets as extreme as killing the significant other. Usually when a woman is abused the guy is let off the first couple of times and rarely ever is it in the news. Why have we been hearing about Chris Brown in the news for the past week? Is it because he's famous or the fact that his girlfriends famous?



Everywhere you go you see the latest updates on the Chris Brown case. Well, Mamolith Articles have written about the incident stating that while leaving "Clive Davis’ party, Rihanna and her boyfriend Chris Brown got into a physical altercation in their limo and Brown punched Rihanna in the face." According to sources, she ran and called 911 while he fled the scene. The article is very skeptical whether he hit or not but the LAPD said that Chris Brown and Rihanna were in Hancock Park were they had an argument and it was visible that she had injuries in her face and that he attacked her. According to the LA TIMES and People, Brown turned himself in for questioning in connection with a police investigation into charges of a felony battery. He was then released from LAPD custody with a $50,000 bail . His "people" as he may say declared that he did not hit her it was rather just a "car accident."



In my analysis, it is very weird that people might think that he was innocent because in any other situation the attacker would have been guilty because all the facts are there. Due to the fact that he is a R&B star many people are biased and they automatically judge differently. Newsflash guys he's a regular human being who probably lost his temper and hit her. STOP DEFENDING HIM!!!!!!!!

How many children could have died??

How many of us buy clothes based on the brand? Everyday people go into the malls and buy celebrity clothing becasue of the name. Some of these artists aren't even majored in high fashion but because of their name and connections people everywhere buy their clothing.

Recently in the news from MSNBC, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled kids hooded sweat shirts from Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers line. A singer may I add is the owner of this clothing line that sold these hoodies for $75 that had the capabilities of killing many children. They have a drawstring through the hood that can pose a strangulation hazard for many children. Although no injuries have been reported I still believe this is a harmful world we live in for many reasons.

How can a singer who may have no experience with clothing have her own clothing line? Easy, she has the right connections. Many people bought the hoodies not because they thought it was safe or comfortable for their child but beacsue of the name. Due to her jackets, many kids could have been dangered and at the same time many other designers were cheated becaue someone bought hers and no theirs becasue of the name. Therfore, unfair treatment once again goes to the celebrities.

Unfair treatment?

Does a celebrity get the same punishment as a normal human being if he or she committed the same crime? Celebrities seem to get special treatment everywhere they go but can they get passed the law? There is some evidence that shows celebrities have received a lighter sentence and have been acquitted from trials that any other person would've been seen guilty. Reading the article from All academic research states how many not all celebrities receive special treatment.

Many jurors might believe they are voting fairly but the psychological theories have suggested that the celebrities influence the jurors in a great way. Celebrities have social power and authority making the jurors sort of vulnerable to them. Some things that have been put into place to prevent this is special courtrooms that help the celebrities be tried fairly.

My analysis of this is that no matter what the courts may do to try ans make it a fair and unjust trial there will always be a difference. the jurors are always going to be influenced and bias towards celebrities. What can we say? Maybe celebrities aren't human? Maybe they have this special influence on people? In my opinion they get too much special treatment.
