The immensely successful Netflix Original series, Stranger Things 2, was finally released October 27th, 2017 since its introduction on July 15th, 2016. With only 8 episodes in the first season, fans were so captivated with the shows detail & relatability to the characters, relationships, and school life. All could not be done without the creators, The Duffer Brothers and multiple co-writers. As explained in the Netflix special, Beyond Stranger Things, Matt and Ross Duffer explained that when creating season 2, they had went straight into ideas before season 1 had even aired. The ideas expressed were continuations as well as the adaptations of new characters, new and same relationships, and an even "stranger" threat to Hawkins just a year after Will's return. In the first episode of Stranger Things 2, we notice not 1 or 2 but 4 new characters, two being completely new to the small town of Hawkins, Indiana. Spoilers ahead! Max and Billy are two step-siblings who've recently moved from California for the new school year. All of the boys are back together, and most take an interest in a new classmate and how "totally tubular" they think she is. Steve and Nancy remain together yet are both growing up and deciding which path is the right path for them now and in the future. Without their mage, Eleven, the AV Club seems to be restored but Will's condition and Mike's longing for El show different.

This strongly written article defends the principle of applying your rights to even something so sentimental to some as the flag of our country. For months since Colin Kapernick's named reappeared in the news, athletes are increasingly "taking a knee" during the national anthem. Athletes ranging from pro-league to reportedly high school athletes are standing their ground and displaying confidence in their decisions. Principles and state representatives have encouraged and some were successful enough to pass laws that players must stand and "respect the flag and the country" while the anthem is being played.
David Cohen is only expressing that if someone or even certain people should not be targeted and bullied into displaying something they may not believe in for whatever reason. While the misconception of not standing during the anthem is fueled by opinions on police brutality from both sides, it is not the case for some or possibly many who choose to kneel. Even the POTUS has taken to his ever so famous twitter-finger abilities during his free-time to indirectly attack and reassure that it is disrespectful, in his eyes. The real point of this article is to define the struggle as a lose-lose situation and while not move towards progression when both sides opinions are seen as attacks. But why debate over a right? A right stated within the constitution itself should speak for itself, no arguing with facts. No explanation needed. |
