Straight Edge On Fox News
People,
That's an example of the social groups we have been talking during our classes.
They have their style, their language, music, behaviour and a specific goal.
I do have a documentary talking about this group, how and where it started.
Although majority of population doesn't know this group exists its important to point it does exist and have their followers. They have their own way to see life and who we should behave to it.
Would you like to be a Straight Edge???
A nice message for the Humanity
David Vaughan Icke is an English writer and public speaker best known for his views on what he calls "who and what is really controlling the world." Describing himself as the most controversial speaker and author in the world, he has written 18 books explaining his position, dubbed New Age–conspiracism, and has attracted a substantial following across the political spectrum.
This video is a speech he gave at a conference that he had in Melbourne-Australia in 2009, which was edited with images from the movie V of Vengeance, is subtitled in Spanish, but you can understand the message he wants to transmit.

Bullying
Here I am again.
Now to speak about a really serious subject. Bullying.
Many people have been suffering social pression only because a specific behaviour or an appearence element.
Sad things have been done, since tease with bad words to beating situations, just to show useless supremacy.
Nowadays a famous case have been commented all over the world. It's the case of Casey Heynes, a 15-year-old boy from Australia. In Brazil he's been called Zanguief, in regard to a special skill of the character of the Street-Fighter.
The main reason of the importance of this case is that the victim faught the bullying back. After years of suffering the victim didn't stay passive waiting, but he got his agressor and taught him a lesson.
Here - http://aca.ninemsn.com.au/article/8226524/net-bullying-victim - you find an interview with Casey, where he tell his difficulties with bullying.
Have you even seen a bullying situation before?
That's all people
See you in class.
