My PLN is about a father and a son robbing a women on a JC Penny parking lot at Colorado Springs. The two men grabbed her purse and one of them punched her to the ground. Then they jumped into their car and drove off. John Lockett Sr., 43, and John Lockett Jr., 19 were arrested for robbing and now police are investigating if they previously robbed any other places to. What matters to the police in this article is to capture other robbers because they are causing too much chaos and are making malls unsafe for people to shop. Also they are glad they found the men quickly because they would have ran away from the cops. What matters to me and the world is to arrest people who steal especial on Black Friday since it’s the biggest shopping day of the year. Luckily the two men in the article are arrested before Black Friday or they would have committed another crime similar to this one.

My PLN is about how much snow we got Friday. We only got 1 or 2 inches of snow. In the mountains like Loveland they got 13 inches witch is good for snowboarders and skiers. We are not getting a lot of snow like previous winters. It should be snowing a lot by now but we have been having sunny days and nice breezes. This matters to me because I like how there isn’t a lot of snow because I don’t really like the snow and I hate driving when it’s snowing its really dangerous. My parent’s car always seems to slide across the road due to the black ice. This matters to the people in Colorado because some of them want it to snow because they probably want to go snowboarding or skiing and you need a lot of snow or the parks won’t open. Also, some people were born in Colorado and winter is nothing without snow to them. This matters to people who hate the snow. There are some people who are love this weather because they can do summer stuff like gardening, biking or walking. Also some people are not used to the snow because there are from places where it doesn’t snow like me. I was born in California and I’m still not used to the snow after 5 years living I here. I think we will be getting more snow later in December.

My PLN is an article that says Obama says he’ll mix change, experience. At first I didn’t understand what it meant then after I read it means that Obama is going to make some change to the white house. He also says that change doesn’t come from Washington but that it comes to Washington. People are not sure about this change because Obama is working with the Clinton administration. This matters to Obama because he really wants people to realize that change is coming but he needs help from us. This matters to me because I think he made a good choice that he chose Hillary Clinton to be secretary because he is a strong and brilliant women who has tons of experience. This also matters to me because Obama is always talking about change but is he actually going to do it? He is talking like he is still campaigning but I don’t see the visual yet. Hopefully he will do as he said. This should matter to the world because people in America need to know what is going on and know what our new president is going to do to make our country a better place to be in. people also are wondering if he is going to make change or if he is just saying that for people's amusement.

My PLN is about a 40 year old man name John R. Lucero who sexually assaulted woman while she was sleeping in her apartment. Police say the women’s apartment was open and that he entered that way. What matters to the women in this article is to put the guy in jail because he did something that she would never forget. Another thing that matters to her is that this shouldn’t happen again and that means he should get arrested. Luckily the man was arrested due to sexually assault. This matters to me because I think its wrong for anyone to sexually assault someone. I think our police should make an effort to capture anyone who raped anyone. This matters to the world because people want this crime to stop because it is not safe for our community. Rapist are running around and scaring our public. We all need to stop them from hurting anyone else. They need to be sent to jail because they shouldn’t show there faces to us. I also think they can do worse crime like murder and we cant risk anything like that.

PLN 10


http://www.denverpost.com/crime/ci_10984685




My PLN is about a guy who's been stealing expensive wine, one which was worth $3,000, and selling it on the internet. Police are investigating if he had previously stolen wine. Obviously, what matters to this guy is getting the wine to make money. Another thing that matters to him is money because he is getting a fortune from selling whine. What matters to the world is the valuable wine that costs a fortune and arresting the guy who committed this crime. People are furious that he is doing a selfish crime and that he should have to face the conciseness. This article matters to me because I think valuable wine shouldn't be stolen and when I'm older I might have a chance to buy this expensive wine but if this man isn't arrested then I won't. Also, a person who commits a crime should be punished and not just get away with it because that would be injustices. I think they should bring back the death penalty in every state because people who commit crimes don't have the right to live. He should at least pay back the people he stole the whine from because that is a large amount of money. People who do these horrible things need to stop. Its bad for the public to live with evil criminals.

My PLN is about a man name David Kelley who sexually assaulted a student at Hills middle school. He was a 37 year old consular at Hill Middle School. He was pressed charges and police are investigated if he has done this to more students or kids. What matters right now to David Kelley is not to be sent to jail because he will probably be sent to jail. This should matter to the world because people need to realize that this is happening everywhere and adults need to be aware on who they hire because they can be dangerous to anyone. People should try and do everything to prevent this from happening. For example, police should look in teacher’s records and make notice if there is something suspicious because you never know who to trust. I also think kids should be very carful and not be alone with a teacher because who knows what can happen. Students should not be on the look out to see who is dangerous to our community. Also police need to arrest people who are hurting kids in the schools. This matters to me because I’m always careful on who I trust because you never know who will actually hurt you. I'm always aware and keep my eyes open to be safe from anything.

PLN 8 Gay couples disappointed by Calif. marriage ban

http://www.denverpost.com/politics/ci_10913693

This article is about California saying no to gay marriage. One gay couple was really disappointed that people from California would be against it. I would think that California would allow gay marriage but I guess not. I found this surprising and very disappointing. This article matters to me because I really don’t care if gay’s lesbians get married because it’s not like there hurting anyone if they did. I think it should be allowed anywhere in the US because it’s not a crime to marry the same sex. If they are not hurting us then we should allow it! This should matter to the world because people need to realize that nobody is the same some want to marry the same sex and it should be allowed. People need to mine there own business and leave the gays alone. They should be free to marry. I know that some religions are against it and people think it’s a sin to marry the same sex but if that is the case then the people who are against it should leave the issue alone and pretend that it’s not happening.

PLN#7Man shot in Lakewood fight

http://www.denverpost.com/crime/ci_10871285
This article is about two men who were either fighting over drugs or just having an argument over something. One guy shot the other but he didn’t die. This article matters to me because I think some people need to stop fighting and just handle a situation more calmly because it can lead to jail or even a death. The world today is filled with violence and it needs to stop because it will just get worse if we fight all the time. People need to stop fighting and start compromising with each other because its safer and a smarter way instead of hurting people.
