But, I agree with Kenisha and Kaitlin. If you have no idea what you are even talking about, then please do not try to make an educated assumption of what is happening. Maybe they should in fact stick to giving us a description of their lunch instead of something as serious as an attack on the US. I will admit though, I was extremely nervous when North Korea declared the attack. But, then I thought about how we are completely prepared for when something like this happens. There's probably a missile sitting under me right now!<br /><br />Jasmine RedusJasmine Redushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17563412593965652621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3752583041499192456.post-53654129081635838492013-04-10T10:08:28.455-05:002013-04-10T10:08:28.455-05:00While Twitter is a great means for information and...While Twitter is a great means for information and microblogging, the validity of what people are saying may not always be true. Twitter is a wonderful source for instant information, I found out Osama Bin Laden was dead through Twitter. With the North Korean possibility of war and their leader, Kim Jong-un, I think Twitter users need to step up their game. All I see about North Korea and Kim Jong-un on Twitter are memes of him. While some of them are entertaining, I feel like the public needs to be more informed about the situation that is currently going on.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00857363208043840962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3752583041499192456.post-59469856358420628522013-04-09T22:19:22.163-05:002013-04-09T22:19:22.163-05:00I also think a lot of times people make up their m...I also think a lot of times people make up their mind without knowing the facts, and then won't consider changing their mind either. I don't know much about this situation, but from what I saw on Twitter it seems like not many people are taking these threats seriously at all. I don't think you should ever underestimate anybody, but I also don't think the US should be eager to start a war. War is a huge deal and it is really terrible. However, I know it will always be a part of life and it's unfortunate that it comes to people making such huge sacrifices in order to keep their countries and loved ones safe.L. M.

I can't even explain the amount of...Oh my gosh. I can't even explain the amount of IGNORANCE that I witnessed on Twitter last week regarding North Korea and their leader Kim Jong-un. I believe that people rely too much on Twitter as a 'news source' and they really don't always know what is going on or all of the facts, before they start throwing out opinions.<br /><br />I don't believe that North Korea is a threat to the United States of America. However, we do have defense missile ships in the water and we will be well prepared if something does happen. But once again, I don't feel like North Korea is a threat to our country.<br /><br />I don't support war and I don't believe in the whole 'fighting for peace' theory that comes along with it. I absolutely hate it! After 9/11 my dad served for Operation Iraqi Freedom, and he was away from my family for four years and it just tore us apart. So I hate what war does to friendships and families, especially for those soldiers who aren't blessed to come back. Of course we live in a honorable country, and there are many men and women who don't mind fighting for our country. But I don't understand why? But war has been around since the beginning of time and it will always be around. But I hope that we can overlook North Korea. <br /><br />I don't want to sound like a cocky US citizen, but I feel like we are above entertaining North Korea.<br /><br />ELEPHANTS DON'T SWAT FLIES.<br /><br />-Keniha Durley<br /><br /> KenishaDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17964264774389882621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3752583041499192456.post-18454084509509897962013-04-09T03:08:18.612-05:002013-04-09T03:08:18.612-05:00I absolutely hate war, despite some positive thing...I absolutely hate war, despite some positive things that do come from it including jobs and money. Those things are not as important to me as living peaceably among all men and saving loved ones of so many families. it hurts my hear that people die because of such an ugly thing as war. That is definitely not to say I do not appreciate the men and women that fight for me to be able to live my free, wonderful, diva-style life. To be honest, I do not know enough about the potential war with North Korea to make an extremely educated opinion. I definitely need to do my research, but I will say that I am scared of what could happen. They are an intelligent country that means business, but I am also confident that our intelligent, strong country is prepared for the worst and can handle retaliating to any attacks.
