Do you think Americans today are more isolated due to technology?

Do I think that people are more isolated due to technology? My answer is 100% yes. I know that I wasn't alive back in the day before everyone had a cell phone or everyone had a computer but they seemed to get by for the most part just fine.

Today I see my neighbor in 4th grade with a cell phone and I think to myself why in the world does he need that I didn't get a cell phone until I was in high school and it was for emergencies only. I look at this kid and think to myself that him and all his little 4th grader friends have cell phones they're just going to grow up with texting rather then having to go in person to ask someone a question.

As technology advances more and more people are going to rely on their electronic devices including cell phones and computers, and ipads and whatever else there is to come, yeah they're cool and all but they are really doing no good, it's just teaching the future leaders of America that you do just about anything without ever going face to face and speaking to someone.

Criminal Justice System

I agree with the Community Policing, because I personally think that nothing is better then the police working with the citizens and really getting close and understanding eachother so that way they could work well together.
I belive that society would be way better off if the two could communicate closely... I think that they would be able to help eachother out and prevent more crimes. Overall I think that the community policing is a great idea for the US to prevent crimes

Nature versus Nuture Debate

Like others have said I think that the Nature versus Nurture debate wont really ever come to an end because everybody thinks differently and is allowed to have their own opinion. However I seem to lean toward more the nurture side of the debate. Because everyone for the most part is born the same way, whether its a natural birth or in the hospital or a cesarean birth.. anyways what I'm getting at here is that after you are born I think that the way you are raised by your parents play a big role into why the way you act the way you do and think the way you do. Some children are more sheltered when they are younger and others parents let them have more freedom and let them go out more and experience more. It's not to be rude but I think the parents are most likely the number key factor as to why people act the way they do.
Also your friends, they take up a big part of that as well, pretty much anyone you surround yourself around you begin to act that way.

American Culture Looks to Outsiders

Well based on that video I think that other countries seem to think that we are full of ourselves, America and the states. All he sang over and over was America America America.. etc.. and then The states the states the states.... etc.. until the other guy came over and punched him. To me it seems that they think that all Americans think about is America and the states and nothing else and all they want to do is just punch us to shut us up.

Now I could be completely wrong but that's just what makes the most sense to me is that all we care about is ourselves and ONLY ourselves..

Stanford Prision Experiment

I think that yes, the Stanford Prison Experiment was ethical. I think that it was worth acting out a prison with fake guards and fake prisoners because they got to see that what the people go through in prison is way more then anyone can expect or prepare for. The experiment was supposed to go on for two weeks just to see what would happen, and the fact that they were forced to shut down after only six days should be the number one sign that what goes on in prison as a guard or a prisoner is absolutely insane.

I thought there were a few things that were very interesting about this article, well for one I wouldn't have even thought to blind fold the prisoners as they were being walked to the bathroom so they couldn't plan their escape route or even know where they were. I also thought it was interesting that they could mess with the prisoners heads by switching up the beds and separating them so they were getting special treatment and then going and switching so the others were, so that way the guards could break any type of allegiance they had going on.

Overall I thought the entrie thing was interesting that after only six days the people forget how things really were and it was all an expriement, they really started to believe that they were really in prision.
