"Immigrants in Our Own Land" - Lockdown Necessary?

Inspired from "Immigrants in Our Own Land" to refer to the response the lockdown crisis hype.

Righetti is pretty much a piece of me. I spent four years of my life going to school there. I spent my time and effort focusing on enhancing my education and now I'm hearing, seeing, and feeling the hate that surrounds the community around RHS. Its pretty sad to say that this is my senior year and I have to deal with kids (and oh, do I emphasize kids) waste other students and potential learners from going on through their day normally. I just wonder what goes on with these kids' minds when it comes to respect, dignity, discipline, formality, and the coming of adulthood. I've had a hard time getting the best ideal college bound, dream school attributes there are and to think of the troubled ones barely passing to graduate high school. That's why I think of myself close to an optimistic immigrant.

In "Immigrants in Our Own Land," high school is just about everything to everyone who wants to move on in life as a post secondary school, but now the idea means nothing to ignorant kids. I must bring up news that the first lockdown Righetti had this year, there was a school shooting in Washington. And now, the second lockdown happened to be on the same day as the school shooting in Florida State University. One FSU student was actually shot at the back almost point blank by the shooter, but one thing that surprised him was that he didn't feel anything. His backpack was shot and inside carried a pierced book and a bullet. The moral of this story is that things that carry your life actually save you from dying of ignorance and literal sense. Education by learning is the book and this book saved this student's life.

For the police tirade, police protocol must be followed by officers and luckily that one underclassmen wasn't shot for resisting arrest. We see the compilation of police brutality lately, but this isn't the case. The girl or girls in the viral video happened to attack the officer, which resulted in 6 arrests. It was overkill to send in every officer and department in the area, but really, its all for safety precautions for all the bad news that has been going on.

Hamlet (The Madman?) Essay

Since the his first appearance on Hamlet, Prince Hamlet showed his fierceness of madness at the first hearing of the king's coronation. William Shakespeare's Hamlet demonstrates a lively protagonist that nevertheless understands no one, not even himself at most times. Drawn by hate from the sight that King Claudius takes Queen Gertrude's hand in marriage, there's no way a son would not be mad at his mother for one month of mourning a father's death. The question for Prince Hamlet is whether he can overcome his madness or step over his limit of madness to the point of insanity. Act I was the first of many levels of complete and utter uncontrollable abilities that Hamlet considered justifiable. Hamlet overall is not subdued by madness, rather than emotional breakdown. For the rest of the play, Hamlet is decisive in his choices to develop a scheme to get back at his father's murderer, but the emotional capacity Hamlet must endure expresses madness externally.

Hamlet makes out his moves by baiting other characters who are most dear such as Horatio, also compared to as a guard of maybe childhood friendship, to those of the prideful antagonist troubles, King Claudius. He also gets around to people he loves off the family ties such as Ophelia, but is very unsure of himself talking to her in a crazed manner or abusive indecency of a gentlemen when it comes to the letter and the playthrough of Hamlet's play within the play. However, Hamlet in Act 1 Scene II was well-acquainted with Lord Polonius until his suspicions arise to not trust anyone close to the King necessarily. The Prince's madness isn't drawn to attention until he spoke his ghostly father, Senior Hamlet, therefore he plays along without being audacious in finding out the truth soon enough. Hamlet hasn't been concerned at the consequences of being held prisoner or being killed within his own kingdom, but his mental breakdown initiated at the thought of hearing his mother fooled by unruly lust within the other part of the family. Queen Gertrude is half the reason Hamlet wants to go after in vengeance of his father. Betrayal struck Hamlet hard no matter what the deal was, he already lost both his mother and father and gained an unwanted father in return.

Other characters of the plot don't recognize the changing of tides the protagonist has to face. Hamlet's feelings aren't taken into consideration of how he really feels truly about the whole Uncle marry Sister-in-law relationship. There's a vacuum for power that Hamlet hadn't taken the chance to obtain because his sadness wasn't anticipated until the longing of the king's coronation. At the point where Hamlet accidentally kills off Lord Polonius, he still hadn't cared about who he killed, albeit it didn't change how he perceived to kill the king with such feeling or not. This "madness" might be facing could psychologically kill him if he knew the right reasons to kill. It definitely wouldn't do anything good for one man to stoop down at the level of the same murder, if not the same case of murder. Hamlet has needed to think about change before King Claudius is aware of some plot for crime.
