Today I read about some teens who have done some kind of crime or misbehaved and filmed it and then later posted it or something related on a public website and later lead to them getting arrested or being put in court for the incident filmed. The person in article one was a man who had a car accident involving two other cars and was charged with drunken driving the lawyers later found a my space or face book that showed the man in the article had pictures of earlier the night and the pictures showed him with alcoholic beverages and these pictures were used to show his negligence in the accident.
The second article I read about talked about kids filming acts of misbehavior such as something called fencing this is when a bunch of kids are thrown through a line of fences lined in someones back yard. This was the creation of some one who just wanted to be look at by others in hopes that his views on this stupidity would get great numbers of views on a public site. after the stupidity of others these public sites have put up signs that say any act of violence or any such is not allowed also these sites have agreed to join with the police to catch any types of criminal acts done and posted up on these web pages.
I was asked why should we be careful of the things that we post on public sites my answer to that is every thing we post or write is traced to the IP address that we wrote from and is traceable,also another reason is that if we ever had some kind of accident we maybe judged by the things we post on public sites whether it be a positive or negative.
There was a case on the news and on many news papers later that week it took place in December it was about a couple of girls who beat up a man on the subway and this incident was filmed and posted on a public web page (you tube) and the girls involved were later put to curt and charged with assault on a older man. This is a great example because the girls in this incident didn't think that by filming this it would lead to them getting charges pressed on them by this man this victim of a harsh beating on a A train going home.

Satire ...
Today I read an article on Satire. Satire is a form of art used to attack someones inner weakness. this piece is satirical because Twain uses young peoples weakness on lying ,action and act of thinking as a joke or a way to make humor.the message behind Twain's humor is that although we joke about things like playing with guns and lying to parents these are some of the things young people are doing today.
Twain uses satire to deliver his message because although it is humor it shows some of the seriousness behind things that that happen in every day life and how the young people are thinking. I believe that this piece is very success full because we laugh at the things he says but it also opens our mind to the stupid things going through children's minds. I learned that I sometimes tend to use weak lies to get out of things I do wrong and maybe with a little more practice and evidence I can avoid getting caught as much hahahaha. Here's another good satirical graphic I looked at you might like wife. This article was based on a man and his over weighted wife he talked about how he thought there was nothing in the world his wife could do to surprise him till one morning she turns and looks at his and says "They should do a game show hosted by that father from Growing Pains."(i really don't see the humor in this at all T_T) but this article shows satire because the seriousness of his wife's obesity is not a concern at all its merely a reason to make this article seem more funny underneath it all the message is that no matter the size people still find ways to be happy.
