Is Anything Really Interesting Right Now?

Image
        In my opinion, after trying to find things current, nothing interesting is going on in the world. This is what my topic is that I’ll be talking about, and how it is actually good nothing is happening. I figured to talk on this subject I’ve just thought of because after looking at news headlines, the only thing close to interesting going on is Trumps impeachment, which I’m sure almost everyone else wrote about, and if not I’d love to know where they’re getting their sources. The thing about the impeachment though is that there is no hard evidence, and the whole thing has been dragged out before the hearings even began, making no room for other news. The other news? None. In my opinion I’m glad because if a lot was happening right now, some of it would be bad news, and no one wants that. The only downside? It makes it a whole lot more harder and or boring to write current event Friday blogs about. Sure there’s the new Disney streaming service Disney+, but how much can you talk ab

“Current Event Friday”(Oct14th)

Image
                                                               ABC’s Mistake                    On one of ABC’s recent news broadcast, they showed a video of a bunch of people watching and recording other people in front of them shooting their guns at explosives a little over a mile away. As they showed the video, they described the situation as a “Turkish bombing of Syria”. ABC’s anchors went on saying how horrific it was and how bad it was as the people just sat there and recorded, but in reality it wasn’t horrific. Shortly after the video aired people who were there recording spoke up and said it wasn’t actually a gun fight and bombing in Syria, but a gun event in Kentucky. The video was taken on land of a Kentucky gun range as a “night gun representation”. It was only a day later when ABC realized it, made an apology, and took down the broadcast and all post of it. https://www.foxnews.com/media/abc-news-error-gun-video-syria-turkey https://youtu.be/BuO6yJrRAYw

My Family’s History

              My Dads side of the family isn’t a very interesting story, my Grandmother and Grandfather and their parents have lived in Chicago all their lives. When he was younger, my grandpa lived and worked on a farm, later moving to the city where he met my grandmother, they later got married and had my Dad and 2 aunts. My mothers side however is a loooooooong line of family members and cousins. Many many cousins. My moms mom lived in Chicago like my other grandparents, but my grandfather and all his brothers, sisters, and their couples brothers and sisters all moved here from Italy. My name was originally going to be Antonio like my grandfathers, but now it’s just my middle name.                 Most live in Bridgeport where they basically own half the street, so if I wanted to see my 3rd cousin, I’d walk down three buildings, 2nd cousin, 2 buildings. Unlike my dads side, 99% of everyone knows and loves each other, none have beef against any other family members. I’m not listing
