September 11, 2oo1

My reaction to what happened on september 11,2oo1 was that it was a devestating tragedy that affected the whole world.Why would people even think about doing things like this. Both people on the plane and people in the twin towers died. The pentagon also got destroyed on that day.

On that day(september 11,2oo1) the persident was at Booker Elementry School talkin to us kids. A man whipered in his ear and had to leave in a hurry.The persident was informed of it that then and their. Those tragdies hurt us all and we will forever pay respect to them.

Women in Botswana

Life in Botswana is very extreme for male and female because of the high aids infection rate in the southern part of Africa where Botswana is located. The median age for the women there is about 20 years of age. Out of the 1,ooo infants that are females, 52 of them die. On a daily basis, the women there are beaten then raped by their male partners. Women of Botswana have no rights and the preganat women have HIV.
Women of Botswana professionals are paid just as well as them men there.

The women that live in botswana practically walk everywhere they go. The living conditions there are harsh to them. Most of their time is taking up because they are looking for food fo thier families. Most of the women try and attend organization groups like chruch mettings to disscus thier problems.

About 50 percent of the women are the total population but does not contribute to the workforce. Women however are a major concen in the labour market however. Women have the least oppurtunities in professions. Some professions you can mainly find them doing is teaching, then working for the government is the next and finally a service sector would be the last common job for the women their.

Military service

I think men and women should not be obligated to serve in the military. It should be there choice weather they want to or not. If they are forced, they may not do the right thing because you are forcing this on them. Going into the military they know that they may not come back, so thats why there scared. Women thet most should not be because I just think that isn't right. Maybe if they want to they could, but overall shouldn't.

Handguns

Why do people even carry handguns. Guns are for people who think their tough. Guns ruin everything and everone. You get 10 to about 30 for bringing a gun to school.If you shot somebody you get life. The only people that should have guns is police officers.
