Pregnant Women

Today we watched a movie over several topics. The topic that caught my attention the most was the one over women and pregnancy. There are some jobs out there that are firing women because they are getting pregnant and have to go on a maternity leave. They are firing them because they don't want to pay them while they are gone for not doing anything.
I do not believe that that is right. I think it is very wrong to fire women just because they are pregnant and have to go on a maternity leave. Especially since they are adding on to the family and need the money to support the family. That is just being sexist towards women.

Colorado

In Aurora, Colorado, police are investigating a shooting that left a man with life-threatening injuries. The man had gotten into a shootout with the Aurora police. The man had fired many shots at the police officers when they had approached him about a possible burglary. One police officer, Detective Bob Friel, was able to return the fire and struck the man, who was not identified, several times.
I think the man way overreacted. He did not need to shoot at the police right away. That just makes him look more guilty by doing what he did. If I were him I would just talk to them and accept my consequences. That would make him seem more responsible.
