Immigrants Seek Citizenship And Self-Inflicted Terrorism. What's Next?
Bernie Sanders

In the United States, there are two kinds of people: the political ones and the ones who just do not care about politics at all. In the past, most people would just stick to their sides. The political ones would choose a politician and back them no matter how wrong they may seem. Even if their politician of choice ends up being completely and indisputably wrong, that person maintains their posture in fear that they will be scrutinized if they switched sides. The ones that choose to not dabble in confusing world of politics usually just sit around and watch the race happen. In 2015 and 2016 the polar politicians managed to redraw the political landscape.

Donald Trump, businessman, has managed to rile up a majority of the hispanic population in the United States to the point that there has been a spike in citizenship applications. “This year's election has struck a chord with immigrants,” said Jeanne Kuang, Contact Reporter for the Chicago Tribune. “Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump may not be the only reason for rising interest in citizenship, but he's a major one.” Many immigrants who have either put off obtaining citizenship or previously have been unable to apply for citizenship have begun to file their paperwork. "We want to become citizens so we can vote against Trump," said Esteban Salgado to Kuang through a Spanish interpreter.

On top of this never before seen spurt in citizenship applications, Trump has managed to draw even more attention towards himself by hiding his tax rate. Trump believes that it is not in the people’s right to see his tax papers “before people vote in November.” He has agreed to release his tax returns after an audit has been completed. "It's none of your business. You'll see it when it's released,” said Trump.

Bernie Sanders has acquired a new form of protest from his haters in the form of a “DIY glow stick recipe.” The recipe is found on a meme that has been spread around on social media sites. The recipe calls for two chemicals (Chlorine and Isopropyl Alcohol). When the two are mixed the reaction creates Chlorine gas and when this reaction occurs inside of a closed container (like a water bottle) the outcome can be deadly. "By mixing the ingredients – including chlorine tablets and rubbing alcohol – in a plastic bottle, you create an explosive device," said Anne Kelly and Lydia Williams, RTV6. "The Wayne Township hazmat team confirmed that to RTV6."

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INFURY OR DEATH.

Chlorine gas is highly toxic and can cause death, so do not try this at home.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), inhaling Chlorine gas (the product of the meme above) can cause: Blurred vision, burning pain and blisters on skin, coughing, difficulty breathing, nausea, wheezing, and pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs).

The source of the meme has not been identified.

AGAIN, DO NOT TRY TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION ON THE PICTURE ABOVE, MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
