Group 3: Occupy Wall Street - We Are the 99% - Jeremy Gilchrist Original Music

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8VcUxpvzxQ

This song written by Jeremy Gilchrist in 2011, was made as part of the protest of wall street known as Occupy Wall Street. This is a series of ongoing protests based in Liberty Plaza Park in New York City protesting "the greed and corruption of wall street banks" (Occupywallst.org) among other things. This song displays the anger of the protesters on the injustice they believe is occurring while the video shows a slide show of pictures of protests to enlighten its viewers and appeal to their emotions to get them on board with the cause.

Lyrics below:

They can take our money
They can take our homes
They can steal the future
Mortage our souls

Occupy the politicians mind
Buy the truth and sell us lies

But there's a rising on wall street
I am you and you are me
We are the 99%'ers
On the right side of love and history

It's hard to say where it went wrong
Decades before me and this song
Through the banksters and the wars
You know I just can't take it anymore

There's a rising on wall street
I am you and you are me
We are the 99%'ers
On the right side of love and history

Jeremy Gilchrist

Group 2: Carrying concealed weapons on a college campus

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4IoUbdtnCs

Our video we posted is about carrying concealed weapons on campus. The controversy about this topic is that carrying weapons on campus would make everyone feel safer, the students that are carrying the weapons, and the rest of the student population. After events such as Columbine, or the Virginia Tech shooting, this is a valid argument. The other side in the video is that more guns does not equal more safety, and that having students with guns would lead to more problems. Please contribute your thoughts and opinions on students with guns on campus.
