Unfortunately it seems to be what they think we want to see. They go by how many people watch the news and how much their advertisers are willing to pay. I don't watch the news cause I tend to get really stressed out over it. In one of my Cosmo magazines it was talking about people that gain weight cause they eat dinner while watching the news. It stresses them out so they eat more. --------------------  Thank you Garrett and Dallar. “The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help them or concluded that you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.” ~~Colin Powell ~~  | ||

I think everywhere has its bad areas and its good. Its all just how they want to show it to be. -------------------- Hollow Fyre ~  ~ Lion Tamer ºO•-)•––––––––•(-• •°• °• oOHarmonyOo •°•°• •-)•––––––––•(-•Oº The Most Strongest and Influential Army | ||
