High Park Fire


It’s looking like the apocalypse now!
Stuff got crazy
The sky got hazy
Adele set fire to the rain
And it must be coming down in Fort Collins.
My eyes and throat are stinging
The helicopters are coming in.
There be ash everywhere
In my house, my car and my hair.
I don’t know what to do.
They must be coming for you.
The sky is orange like the fire in the woods,
And we are all driving round in our neighborhoods,
Going to concerts, swimming in the pools
Acting like nothing is wrong.
The fire in the sun came down and heated up our earth,
It’s gonna be a hot summer,
So there is more where that came from
You had better gear up Colorado because we are gonna have some fun!

History and the media - things we need to take into consideration

They are often portrayed as either white individuals with a low socioeconomic status or people of color, although this demographic maybe true, the people in gangs are often shown as lazy and not having any purpose to their lives,

Footballers and their wages

My first discussion point, why do footballers get paid so much? It is absolutely pointless, they do hardly anything, just kick around a ball all day and they get paid millions. It is so not fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are so many individuals doing more worth while jobs, yet they get paid a fraction of what footballers get! It is not even eqaul across all sports Rugby players for example, get paid a lot less. I am not against football, I enjoy it, I just think that it is crazy the amount of money that footballers get.
