         <title>Guilty until proven innocent???</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I thought our democracy was founded on the principle of "innocent until proven guilty," but these days it seems to be the opposite. All of Kavanaugh's accusers admit to having been drinking and to having gaps in their memory. Plus, just because someone did something in his/her teen years or college years doesn't mean he/she hasn't matured and grown over the years. It doesn't mean that person isn't a model citizen today. I know I am not the same person I was 30 years ago. This #metoo movement seems to be getting out of hand. As a mother of a teen-aged son, I fear for him and his future. His reputation could be ruined at any given moment with a simple accusation.</div>]]></description>

         <title>Big Deal or Not?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think that, yes, Colin Kaepernick kneeled during the National Anthem for a protest against police brutality and that might have been the wrong way of protesting, but all of this talk is just to get Nike's name out in the news. Colin maybe thought that this was the best way to reach the public eye. With that, Nike saw a chance to gain more media money and views for their company. They took an old topic that hit the public hard and made it something big again. The company is getting over 50% more media exposure just over the promotional video. Other reactions included burning shoes and cutting of swooshes. This gave Nike an uproar for people to talk about, which in turn will make them more money. I don't agree with kneeling during the National Anthem because many Veterans can't stand due to their service in the army. I also don't agree with police brutality, but Colin's way of protesting doesn't exactly hit the desired purpose of the protest.</div>]]></description>

         <title>Burning Nike Shoes??</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I completely believe that people have the right to have their own opinions on everything; however, I also think some people get a little out of hand. In my opinion there is nothing wrong with Nike using Colin as the face of their new ad, nor do I believe there is anything wrong with Colin Kaepernick protesting.&nbsp; He has the right to peacefully protest. I don't understand why people are so upset with Nike. By burning shoes and other Nike products they are just wasting their own money.&nbsp; They've already bought the products so it really isn't affecting Nike at all.&nbsp;Colin Kaepernick is just trying to bring attention to subjects that need attention. I'm with him and Nike.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I don't think Bill Cosby is guilt it happened in 2004 why would you come out know what happen in his home. Just because his rich doesn't mean you have to start speaking up know you should've done in 2004 when it happen not know the mean is 81 years old he is no danger to know because he's been blind for the past 4 years. Giving him 3 to 10 years because people say they saw him sexual assault her in his home but his daughter said he would never hurt any women and I agree what she says.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I personally think Facebook is not a good thing for young kids to be have and Instagram is not any better. Facebook allow strangers to look at things that you only want your friends and family to see.But Instagram has a little more privacy because you can make your account private and only the people you let follow you can see what you post. And investing so much money into Instagram was useless honestly. It is just like Facebook I don't see the different between them. To me younger kids are more into Instagram because they know their parents don't have the app.Facebook you can Facetime your friends or family and if you are cheap you can buy things off of Facebook.I&nbsp; don;t think it is worth fighting over though. If people want to keep Facebook let them.And if people want to keep Instagram let them. <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/with-instagram-cofounders-out-facebook-all-the-way-down/">https://www.wired.com/story/with-instagram-cofounders-out-facebook-all-the-way-down/</a></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In my opinion Nike is supporting someone who knows what they believe in, he could have gone about it in a different way, but he did ask a veteran what to do and they did tell him to kneel. He meant no disrespect. Some people really are over reacting...  &nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Bill Cosby was accused of molesting  Andrea Constand in 2004.But why wasn't it brought up in 2004 I mean why bring it up now. You cant wait when something like that happens you need to tell someone.I think she needs some money and right now in time if a girl screams some innocent man gets charges filled because they were in the surrounding area. I think its just a way to get money, </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think Tiger Woods has worked hard to get back to where he used to be. He only came back in December from back fusion surgery and won first after five years. He's had some struggle in the past, but he has overcome them and showed people that he is ready to grab the eye of the public again</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Bill Cosby is 81 years old. They are putting him in jail for something he did 14 years ago, or something they say he did. I won't say if I think he did or didn't because honestly I don't know. He's the main one that knows what happened. I think that what he's being accused of is horrible.&nbsp;I also believe that if the accusations are true, which they might be since he is being charged, that he should serve the required amount of time. Justice should be served either way. But if the women are lying just so they can get money and fame then that is very wrong too. People should never lie about things like that. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think instagram would connect with younger kids and teens. Facebook is usually used for your parents to post about you were younger or about your birthday. Teen's use facebook just to post drama so they can get in trouble for know reason. Now instagram is more appropriate for teens and kids because all thing use see is famouse people posting about their movies, music, animals, and whats going on in there life. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In my opinion when Nike chose to use Kaepernick as one of the faces of Nike it could have helped sales with younger generations. The article states that sales were up in the quarter before his commercial came out. I would think that older generations who don't agree with Kaepernick's kneeling would not pay for their kids Nike products, which could hurt their sales. I guess we will find out when the next quarter sales come out. I feel like Nike could've found a more respectable athlete or person for their representation.&nbsp;</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

Because that grosses me out and someone who does that should get in huge trouble&nbsp; .But if he didn't do it he should be sent to jail and serve his time to protect any other littler girl.<br><a href="https://www.npr.org/2018/09/26/651710715/bill-cosby-and-the-metoo-movement">https://www.npr.org/2018/09/26/651710715/bill-cosby-and-the-metoo-movement</a><br><br><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/bill-cosby-s-fall-ripples-through-metoo-movement-n913361">https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/bill-cosby-s-fall-ripples-through-metoo-movement-n913361</a></div>]]></description>
