Are you Really Proud of Your Country

Authors note:
I had a really hard time with this topic. i had a hard time figuring out what to write about but I got some ideas about what to write about. The conclusion was also difficult.
 More than 60% of the world’s countries have freedom. It is disappointing to think that countries can’t come together and have freedom. Other countries look at the U.S.A and wonder what it would be like to have freedom, but we have never had to experience that feeling because we are a free proud country.

If I think about everything that makes our country free, there is a part that I am not proud of. That is the fact that there are people away from their families fighting to keep our country free but yet a person won’t take five minutes out of their day to vote. You hear people complain all over the place about their countries political leaders when the person that is complaining might not even have voted. You can’t complain about something unless you’re going to try to do something about it.

What does the pledge allegiance really mean? We say the pledge every day at school but how many of the kids that say the pledge know what it actually means. Reciting the Pledge of Allegiance means that a person will be supportive and faithful to the United States of America. This stands for liberty and justice for all. Schools around the world should do more research about the history of the pledge of allegiance. How many people know that the original form of the pledge was, "I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." Also in 1923 the words "the Flag of the United States of America" were added. Making it read "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the pledge we say today. Today it reads, "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Everyone should be proud of this country and make good choices for there are people away from their families fighting for your freedom. We should take advantage of the freedom we have because not all countries have that freedom.

Rollercoasters Around the World.

Authors note: I felt the need do wright about the Takabisha because not many people have heard of this roller coaster because it is in Japan.

 If you could go anywhere in the world where would you go? Some people might go to America for the freedom, may be Switzerland for chocolate, or Paris for the Eiffel tower, while others would go to Japan to ride the Takabisha. The Takabisha is the best roller coaster in the world

Imagine falling 90 degrees downward on the ride v2 in Gurnee Illinois. Now imagine falling 112 degrees down the Takabisha, at that degree you would be scared like a waffle jumping out of a toaster while he is going on the roller coaster. If you are a rollercoaster fear demined you would probably go to ride the Takibisha. It’s weird because you would probably think based on gravity that you would go faster when you’re going down at a grater degree, but that’s where you’re wrong. The Takibisha goes a total of 62 mile per hour, but V2 goes up to 65 miles per hour so it’s a split, do you go on the taller slower rollercoaster, or the faster shorter one. The difference of speed is two miles per hour so the Takibisha is definitely the better rollercoaster.

While the height makes a vast difference it’s the coarse that really make me truly believe which is the better rollercoaster. You could gets go up and down the “shape of a u,” Or you could go through a series of twists and turns, spirals and every which way you can think of. Therefore why go up and down when you could ride the Takabisha.

If you go all around the entire world the finest rollercoaster you will find is the Takabisha. Once every American rides the Takabisha they will truly know the better rollercoaster.
