I thought the video had a lot of good points an the anarchy does apply most to the things happening today like people trying tear down statues and ruin memorials and graveyards.]]> 2020-08-19 19:08:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688041225 2453821 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688042852  Freedom of speech, the press, and religion.  Democracies in general respect these basic individual liberties.]]> 2020-08-19 19:09:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688042852 3011127 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688063645 One thing that's similar about the video and today is the protests and rioting. Recently, there have been protests about equal rights and ending racism just like in the 1960s.  In my opinion, I think the Greeks were right when they said "without law there is no freedom" everyone needs order to prevent chaos, however the people need to have a say like voting and holding elections, which is what the United Sates does.]]> 2020-08-19 19:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688063645 250419 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688198519 Some instances discussed in the video we saw today are the election and choosing the right person to be in office. Clearly, there will never be a "right" one dude to the fact that everybody has different beliefs. Even though one party will not be happy with the decisions and/or beliefs of the other party, we have to do what is best for our country financially and economically. Back then, many countries were having the same proplems. ]]> 2020-08-19 20:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688198519 2503981 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688209273 I did not get to watch the video with my parents butI did watch it again by myself. I thought in the video are pretty simple and people that are in higher levels tend to hold more power against others. No matter what time. It has always remain the same. Years ago people who held power off and had money and knowledge so people will listen to them and believe their thoughts. But now people with power usually contain lots of money and often revolve around the president and what he says.]]> 2020-08-19 20:27:36 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688209273 2503981 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688212138 But not only the president the two left and right sides of the parties]]> 2020-08-19 20:29:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688212138 SummerMorris https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688231722 My thoughts on the video and on current events is mostly on how scary some of the things people want is basically giving the government more power. They want to put them in charge of our health care, and to establish a national police. But the video also helped me realize the actual difference between a Republic and a Democracy. That did always confuse me on what the difference actually is.]]> 2020-08-19 20:39:58 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688231722 2510112 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688240402 My parents thoughts about the video and the difference of the current event's taking place in the world is that back then people were protesting and demanding more rights as a American  but now in our current events that are taking place it seems like people want some of our rights taken away.]]> 2020-08-19 20:45:16 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688240402 2474451 https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688294214 People back then used anarchy to get thing to change.

The more power the government has, the more freedom rescinds and this reeks havoc amongst the people. In America, some people desire to be taken care of so they are willing to give up their rights; whereas, others want to maintain their freedoms and rights and believe this is achieved through the proper limitation of government. This is why America is so divisive today and nothing can be agreed upon.]]> 2020-08-20 07:41:47 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/688855955 rgrundmeyer https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/689662214 There have been some very insightful thoughts presented.  Let's make sure that we have our names set up on Padlet so it shows who the posting party is.  I am unable to give points for an anonymous post.]]> 2020-08-20 16:09:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rgrundmeyer/hh45tzllk68web3i/wish/689662214
