OPINION - Does Money Buy You Happiness? By Simon Lapham

Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class!

In the U.S., money is an important resource of your daily life. Money can buy anything from chips to a multi-million dollar house, but most U.S. citizens don't have that much money. What all people do have, is the ability to decide what they want to buy. So money can buy you happiness even if you don't have a million dollars. You just need to be able to know what makes you happy.

OPINION - The Benefits of Field Trips, by Isabella Salas

Please enjoy this opinion article by a student in DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class.

            A student’s mind can only hold so much, which is why they get weekends off but sometimes that’s not enough. Field trips are another way to have students feel more relieved as well as an educational experience. So why not have more?

OPINION - DMHS Needs a Floor Hockey Team, by Raiden McClure

Please enjoy this opinion article from a student in DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class.

Middle school should have co-ed floor hockey because it's for everybody and everybody can play instead of playing basketball. Some people don't like basketball and not as many people participate when we play it. Sports are good for kids and we should be able to have sports for everybody in the school.

OPINION - Don't Go to the Circus, by Jordan Wortham

 Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class!

Tigers, Elephants, bears and other circus animals do not leap through holes, balance on their heads, or ride bikes because they want to. They have to be taught and teaching wild animals can be difficult. They do these and other tough techniques out of fear of what will happen if they don't. All around the world, circuses do not care about their animals. They care about entertaining their audience and what they can do with their animals. They torture their animals if they don’t do things right after a certain amount of times.

Lots of people think that if we have longer school days and we are learning for more hours in a day that the students will succeed but that's not true, at least in my opinion.

OPINION - Is Homework Beneficial? By Marisol Kennedy

 Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class!

Homework has been a big argument between teachers and students for a while. Students continuously don't want the homework they are given, and teachers keep giving it. Society thinks giving homework is a necessity for a child to have a good, worthwhile education. Is homework really a factor in good education?

Next time you buy a car, buy a JDM. JDM stands for Japanese Domestic Market car. JDM cars are durable and have a longer lifespan while being exposed to a demanding workplace, which is a major benefit. JDM auto parts are more durable and of higher quality than their American counterparts.

OPINION - You Should Boycott Seaworld, by Rowan Sanderka

 Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class!

Seaworld has been charged with many animal cruelty charges but are these claims true?

Seaworld claims, “Our care team consists of hundreds of professional animal behaviorists, aquarists, zoologists, veterinarians, and dieticians. What we have learned from caring for such a diverse set of animals over nearly 60 years is what informs the success of our mission, including rescue, rehabilitation, and return.”

OPINION - Marvel Phase 4 Is Not As Bad As the Haters Say. In Fact, It's Good. By Siri Sherrod

 Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class.

Many Marvel fans believe that Phase 4 is the worst Marvel phase. I disagree. I think Phase 4 is better at representing minorities. Phase 4 has more LGBTQ+ and racially diverse characters than the other phases had. 

Phase 1 consisted of all white male leads plus a team-up movie. Same thing for Phase 2. Phase 3 had Black Panther which was very progressive and successful and Captain Marvel which had a white female lead but was not received well.

OPINION - Bugs Aren't Bad. By Will Matyjevich

 Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" class!

        Many people fear insects, but they never seem to realize how fascinating bugs can be. One example would be cockroaches, cockroaches are seen as invasive, disgusting creatures that crawl around and make weird clicking noises, but roaches in general can be really cool, because of how they eat waste and make it into organic material. Roaches are some of the reasons why our world isn't flooded with garbage. 

OPINION - Can Money Buy You Happiness? By Joseph Lucero

 Please enjoy this opinion article from the DMHS "Introduction to Journalism" class!

I think that money can and can't buy you happiness but it can help you achieve happiness. It can buy you happiness because if you have all the money you need you can spend time with people and family which can make you happy. Or you can buy things that bring you joy like a Bugatti or a mansion or things for family. Seeing them get them can bring you a lot of happiness.

OPINION - Should Inmates on Death Row Have More Rights? By Kaitlyn Tran

Please enjoy this opinion article from DMHS's "Introduction to Journalism" Class!

        Humans who kill other humans are ultimately evil. How could someone take another life and not feel any remorse? However, on Death Row, where the world’s most deadly people are sent, is it okay for the government to take those lives without any remorse at all? There are a lot of mixed opinions whether it's right or wrong to kill other people, no matter the crimes they’ve committed. 

Death Row is a sentence where inmates who have committed federal crimes against the state or have committed violent murders are sent to await execution. While these people are probably horrible and have done terrible things, is it right to kill them off?
