"Suspect sought in Greeley shooting." By The Denver Post. In this article it mattered that the shooter or suspect is "on the loose" and needs to be caught. After reading this I couldn't help but wonder to myself why would he shoot another man in a public building? The good thing is that the man was not killed. But, it is still unacceptable that he would shoot someone. The victim could have been seriously injured or killed and that's just not fair. But, it makes me wonder or almost feel bad for the shooter. I almost pity him for the fact that you must have some mental challenges or needs that made him shoot someone. So that also brings a question to mind, Does the shooter have mental problems? In this story I think that it is not fair that a man was shot for no apparent reason, but makes me wonder is the shooter has mental issues.

"Boy arrested for alleged threats at Fountain Highschool." By The assoiated Press. In this story it mattered that there was a very sick boy that was very "Confused" says Sgt. Jess freeman. I think it is very intresting that no one noticed that a young boy like this likely has mental issues. I tink it is so stupid and sad that there is more violevce and crime occuring then less. Why? What is the point of threating a boy? I just don't understand why people keep doing this stuff. All that comes out of it is people getting hurt and going to jail. This boy wil likely be fined because his parents have failed to notice that he has some problams. It is getting worse, all this crime and violence.
