This is my blog.

This editorial from New York Times criticizes the White House's resolution on reaping the benefits from oil extraction in the Arctics, one of the protected refuges that has been restricted by the Barack Obama's administration. That being said, based on what I've read, I do certainly agree with the editorial on the sense that it might potentially harm its environment and can be a big concern for most environmentalists. It also states that some of the most preserved lands could be at stake. https://nyti.ms/2zlEHit

While this opinion titled "How Long Until We Debate Real Gun Laws?" from the New York Times discusses how the US government hasn't taken actions on the gun control issues yet a myriad of people have been killed during modern times of America, I agree with most of what the editorial has stated and that it is the time for both NRA(National Rifle Association) and the US Congress to take this issue serious. After having watched some Las Vegas mass shooting videos myself, it really jumped out of me that such a dangerous type of weapon or device can still be purchased legally. I didn't know the type of device called "bump stock", a device that accelerates the rate of fire of any semi-automatic guns matching that of fully-automatic ones, was legal until I read articles where they said such device was actually legal. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/10/05/opinion/editorials/how-long-debate-real-gun-control.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Fopinion&a
