DUI takes one more
The man who was struck was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident. The other a 21 year old man is critically injured in the hospital with disclosed injuries.
The part that strikes me as inhumane is that fact that the driver fled the scene knowing that one of his passengers were injured, and another man was killed. I am glad justice has occurred and he is being charged with driving while intoxicated and criminally negligent homicide.

THE WAYS OF LAW
There is a never ending list of what laws are there for. They maintain order, enforce many moral beliefs, promote social order, and most importantly to identify wrong doers. There is a rule behind law to maintain justice, the purpose is to govern based upon established principles that apply to all.
You may not agree with these laws but in the words of John F Kennedy "Americans are free to disagree with the law, but not disobey it"

The ninja
Many on Staten Island are infatuated with this thief, almost to the point that we are almost rooting for him. When you are out late some almost hope to run into this man. Although on the other side of the spectrum we have a whole squad including 24 police officers, 12 detective and two tasks forces I will assure you that his party will be shut down soon.

why i write
The piece of literature by Terry Tempest Williams seems to be an escape route or a way to freedom for the author. I say this due to the fact that every negative or unfavorable situation is solved in a positive way by writing. Such as writing himself out of nightmares and into his dreams. I also believe that he writes to express the way he feels during bad times good times and dark times. Which in my eyes is more or less the whole point of this piece. “I write to record what I love in the face of loss”, “I write out of my anger and into my passion” the previous two quotes are some of many examples of how he uses writing to resolve and soften a situation. Another discovery I made after reading the passage is that he feels writing can be used in literally or almost every situation. Also that writing has just as much or more power than speaking, and that it has all the same risks as well. This passage in my eyes explains to you that writing is one of the most meaningful forms of communicating, and that there is no situation or mood necessary simply it can always be applied. The title Why I Write is misleading due to the fact that there is no specific reason. As a reader you learn that almost every situation is concluded with writing.
