"Don't Do It Sally!"

On October 11th, a kindergarten girl was put on homicide and suicide watch for a reason that you won't want to believe.  In the article "Kindergartener Forced to Sign Anit-Suicide Contract After Pointing Crayon", a girl only identified as Elizabeth was placed on suicide and homicide watch after pointing a crayon at a fellow student saying, "Pew! Pew!"  She was then forced into signing a "safety contract" without her mother knowing.  The mother, Rebecca, did not agree with the policy.

I really don't know how to respond to this article.  The absurdity of the situation is so mind-blowing that I honestly can't believe how this could have happened.  Because of the actions that the teachers took, Elizabeth now knows what homicide and suicide is.  I think schools need to calm down on their security policies because all it is doing is scarring the kids for a long time.

ISIS isn't so Hospitable

The FBI has just warned the military that ISIS may attack the United States at home (link to article), and it's going to get ugly.  "FBI Warns Military of ISIS Threat" describes the situation at hand that could cause a lot of damage to the U.S.  The extremist group is looking for likeminded Americans who want to cause harm to homeland America.  The FBI is currently spotting and assessing individuals who may be connected to this contact and/or have the same intentions.  ISIS somehow has gotten a hold of some soldiers' addresses and personal information, which is deeply concerning to the FBI and intelligence.

This article scares me deeply.  I know that there are individuals in the U.S. who want to destroy our country, but this being so prevalent is frightening.  I'm glad that the FBI is already seeking these people who would try to possibly hurt our nation.  I hope that they find out how ISIS knows some of the soldiers' information because that is a breach in our national security.  With the increase of events, I will remain scared until it is resolved.
