North Dakota pipeline

Recently president Donald Trump re-enacted the plan to build a pipeline for oil through North Dakota. Native Americans and conservationists are very opposed to this deal fearing it may have a catastrophic effect on the environment. If built properly It simply would be a pipeline for oil to travel through and would not be of too much harm to the environment. The main issue I see is that some freelance eco-terrorist would try to blow it up, full of oil, the effect on the environment would be catastrophic.

Trump Day

Today is a day when Donald Trump becomes president. If he follows his beliefs and doesn't cave in to pressure from others it will be a successful presidency. Some things I know will not happen unless things change. The wall in our current economic state may be too much for our economy. When the economic cycle hits another recession which undoubtedly will come, that is when the wall will be built. This is an economic stimulant more than a method to block illegals from entering the country.

Unbiased news

Unbiased news doesn't exist. Every media outlet has some sort of bias big or small. BBC, CNN, NBC, ABC, and FOX are the biggest news organizations for the English speaking world. Each has their own bias whether left or right. With trumps recent declaration that CNN is "fake news" people are continuing the debate which news outlet is reliable. Shunning of certain media outlets is nothing new, Obama frequently left FOX out of the loop on things. In my opinion there are no non biased news in this hypersensitive era.

Thoughts on the recent tragedy in Chicago

4 racially motivated people falsely imprisoned and tortured a mentally challenged white Trump supporter. If this is horrific enough they put the video of it on a Facebook live-stream. The perpetrators of this hate crime are now in police custody and likely wont see freedom for a long time. The issue I have is that these terrible people attacked someone with mental challenges. Another issue with this is the public reaction to this. If I were to leave out the "Trump supporter part" many would be more horrified by this incident. An example would be when I told my mother about it, she at first said it was horrifying but when I said the victim was a Trump supporter she said "serves him right", which is deeply saddening.
