Palaga Park

I went to palaga park and observed the enviorment and what i found out was that palaga park is very friendly area. A very urban area for teens and maybe even some parents.I see a lot of sports played there like football,soccer,basketball mostly and sometimes some tennis and volleyball.The park has a very positive mood and there is never no problems there or any muggings or fights.There is also all different types of ethnicity's there,but mostly black, Latino and Asian hardly any white people.I think that this is a very friendly enviorment for all kinds of people if you want to have fun.I even go there sometimes to play a little ball.

R.I.P Matt Garcia

On monday September 1, 2008 a young latino male by the name of Matt Garcia was shot three times in a quiet neighborhood in fairfield.Matt Garcia was one of the youngest elected officials in the nation.When i read this article it made me think alot, like about what the world is coming to these days.This guy wasn't doing anything wrong,he was just trying to help get kids off the streets like the little hooligans.Just trying to change the world kinda like obama except a little smaller, but so what it's still change and the kind of change that we need.I mean who knows he could have been the next obama but insted of being African American he would have been Latino.That really pisses me off that we'll never get to find out just cause a couple of people don't agree with him and decide to kill him.But last i heard he was in critical condition, but today they annouced that he was brain dead.This world will never come to peace but we could at least try, and this would have never happened if we had gun control, so this is also kind of a political issue because Obama is pro life which means he is for gun control, but McCain is against gun control, so if you really want to stop all this violence let Obama speak for you.

My Article

A couple of days ago i was reading an article in the San Francisco Chronicle and it really caught my attention.It was about a lesbian rights pioneer named Del Martin who died on August 27, 2008. She had gotten married to her significant other on June 16th in California by Mayor Gavin Newsom.She Had began her political activism in lesbian rights in the 1950's, and thats also when she met her lover Phyllis Lyons.They have been partners for over 55 years and finally this year they were allowed to be married.Even though it didn't last long Ms.Lyons said "I am so lucky to have known her, loved her and been her partner in all things".I think that this was a very important article, because it is good to remind people the struggle that Lesbians and gays have to go through everyday, not being able to have the sacred bond of marrige like the rest of us have.I think this article shows how unfair things can be, but these people still fight for what they believe in and will never stop until they have the same rights and privileges that we have.
