Baylor offense continues rolling against Red Raiders

By BRANDON SOLIZ Staff Writer

On Saturday, the Texas Tech Red Raiders faced off against the No. 5 Baylor Bears at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, and the Bears left victorious with a final score of 63-35.

Baylor came into the game off a 70-17 win over the Rice Owls and ranked in the top 10 in the nation in most offensive categories.

The Bears kept up their offensive pace this weekend against the Red Raiders, going for 680 overall yards and

scoring 63 points.

Baylor’s starting quarterback, Seth Russell, threw for 286 yards and four touchdowns.

Russell also added 83 yards on 12 carries with two touchdowns coming off a run by the Baylor quarterback.

Baylor, however, also outran the Red Raiders with a total of 368 yards on the ground with running back Shock Linwood leading the Bears with 221 yards. “(Linwood) is a very good player,” Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said. “Their line did a good job creating holes,

RED RAIDERS BEARS and he finished his runs.”

Linwood is now fourth in Baylor’s school history for yards rushed in a game with his previous career high coming back in 2013 also against Tech.

The Bears also had a pair of wide receivers who made an impact on the game.

Wi d e r e c e i v e r C o r e y Coleman led the Bears with a total of seven receptions for 110 yards with

35 63

three of his seven catches ending in touchdowns.

Wide receiver Jay Lee also tallied more than 100 yards receiving with three receptions adding up to 120 yards.

Senior defensive lineman Brandon Jackson said the atmosphere surrounding the game probably had some effect on the defense. “(There were) a lot of young guys who kind of got cut up in the glitz and glam,”

Jackson said. “You know, you got to lock in and really focus when you’re playing great teams, and Baylor were able to execute more — well, execute better than us.”

Baylor’s offense put up 499 yards in the first half and also scored on its first five possessions.

Baylor improved its record to 4-0 for the third straight season and now has a 37-36-1 lead in the alltime series between the two schools. This is also Baylor’s fifth straight win over the Red Raiders.

“They deserve to be up

there (in the top 5), and we just — we didn’t capitalize on stuff that we worked on during the week,” senior offensive lineman Jared Kaster said. “Something we’ll have to go back and watch film and get better at.”

Tech will look to bounce back off two losses to No. 4 TCU and No. 5 Baylor when it faces the Iowa State Cyclones.

This will also be Tech’s homecoming game and kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock. @BSoliz_DT

Students prepare for One Love Week

By KRISTEN BARTON News editor

The One Love Foundation was started in 2010 after Yeardley Love, a student athlete at the University of Virginia, was killed by her boyfriend.

Texas Tech is bringing this movement to Lubbock. Several departments, including the Fraternity and Sorority Life and Tech Athletics, are partnering to bring awareness to relationship violence.

Nov. 9-14 will be the official One Love Week on Tech’s campus, Chloe Barnes, director of student athlete affairs, said.

The One Love Foundation uses social media, videos and workshops to bring awareness about violence in relationships to college campuses, she said.

Barnes learned about the foundation at a conference during the summer, and she said she originally wanted to bring it to student athletes at Tech.

“After thinking about it, I realized this is such an important issue, not just for our student athletes but for Texas

DUNCAN STANLEY/The Daily Toreador

Student leaders from Fraternity and Sorority Life, Institutional Diversity, RISE and Tech Athletics will have a One Love week in November to raise awareness for violence in relationships. Student leaders from various organizations participated in training for the event on Wednesday at the Marsha Sharp Center for Student Athletes.

Tech in general,” Barnes said.

“So we decided to partner with Fraternity and Sorority Life and Institutional Diversity and

RISE to put on this program.”

Fraternity and Sorority Life was invited earlier in the semester to participate in One Love,

Harriette Baker, Panhellenic adviser for Fraternity and Sorority Life, said.

Relationship violence is an issue that affects all parts of campus, no matter what a student is involved in, Baker said.

Bringing One Love to campus will help educate students about relationship violence

and learn how to navigate confusing situations.

“As part of our community values we really create an opportunity for students to care about one another and to have healthy interactions not just in romantic relationships but also just in friendships,” Baker said.

tenant of our community and I think a lot of times it’s important for our students to learn what that looks like.”

On Wednesday, 50 student facilitators attended a training session with a One Love representative. The students will spend about a month preparing workshops to present to students.

Anthony Lyons, an outfielder on the Tech baseball team, said students learned about domestic violence and rape at the training and how to teach students around the campus to intervene and prevent it.

There are about 15 student athletes involved and 35 students from a variety of other student organizations around campus, Barnes said.

Student leaders will host workshops and attend events on campus to raise awareness every day of One Love Week, she said.

“It’s a cause that was brought to our campus because so many people are victims of domestic violence and relationship abuse,” Barnes said. “Not only physical but emotional as well.”

Barnes said with the rise of college women being abused, it is important to raise awareness about something that has happened on Tech’s campus and can be stopped.

Bringing One Love to Lubbock is the first time athletics has partnered with other groups on campus for such a large event, Barnes said. Tech is also the first university in the country to incorporate athletics and campus as a whole in this campaign.

“We’re actually going to be highlighted on all their social media and website and the premiere institution for what we’re doing,” she said.

Relationship violence is an important cause students should care about, Baker said. The One Love program helps teach students the importance of interventions and how to help their peers in an abusive relationship.

“Intervening in a relationship before things start to escalate could save a life,” she said.

“It could keep someone from entering a lifelong commitment who doesn’t have their best interest at heart.”

Raising awareness about domestic violence is important on any campus because it can change someone’s life, Lyons said. Family, friends and peers are all affected when someone is in an abusive relationship.

It is important for people to know the signs of an abusive relationship to intervene and help others, Lyons said, whether those are physical or emotional signs.

“What I hope comes out of this is campuswide awareness of domestic violence and to hopefully decrease the statistic of domestic violence around our campus and, in the long run, the nation as a whole,” he said.

“That starts with just one person learning about it and then it passes along to the next person.” @KristenBartonDT

Penalties back Tech out of game

By JEREMY KRAKOSKY Staff Writer

Against Baylor on Saturday, the Texas Tech football team committed a season-high 17 penalties, which is one short of the school record for the most in a single game.

In the past three games, the team committed four, four and three penalties.

Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said those mistakes, combined with four turnovers, make it impossible to win against a talented team.

“We reverted back to some bad habits as far as penalties and turnovers in this game,” he said. “And against a top-5 team in the country, you can’t have that happen. So I don’t think we really gave ourselves an opportunity to win the game.”

Tech was one of the worst teams in the country in penalties and turnovers last season, but the Red Raiders came into the game with the least penalties in the Big 12 Conference and +5 on the season in turnover margin.

Seventeen penalties lower the Red Raiders to fifth in the conference in yards per game, according to the conference website.

More importantly, the penalties put Tech in a high number of long-down situations, which stopped a couple drives. In the first half, killed drives were a change in momentum and put the Red Raiders in a hole they could not come back from.

A few explosive plays were also taken away because of Red Raider penalties.

Senior center Jared Kaster said a majority of the penalties were on the offensive line, which is frustrating for him.

“I think we had eight of the out-of-how-many penalties we had. It’s just unacceptable, and I’ll take responsibility for that,” Kaster said. “I’m the older guy that they really

Baylor entered the game and still is the most penalized team in the Big 12 in terms of both yards and penalties drawn.

The Bears had less than half the number of flags as the Red Raiders, with eight for 72 yards.

Senior defensive lineman Branden Jackson said the atmosphere of AT&T Stadium may have distracted young players and caused several of the mental mistakes.

“The big screen and the large crowd. Just a lot of young guys kind of got caught up in the glitz and glam,” Jackson said. “You

know, you got to lock in and really focus when you’re playing great teams.”

After a disappointing game with self-inflicted mistakes, the team has to move on and focus on getting better this week, Jackson said. He added that none of the confidence is lost among the defense moving forward.

“Everyone in the locker room is down right now as they should be. Just feel like we didn’t get it done. And the scoreboard showed that,” he said. “But confidence isn’t lost. We played a good team who had our number this week.” @JeremyK_DT

with both cries of happiness and dismay.

Although citizens had appealed to the court to keep the statue on the grounds, a state judge recently gave the state of Oklahoma until Oct. 12 to remove the statue, according to a Thursday Reuters article.

The First Amendment and the Establishment Clause, were created to establish the separation of church and state, justify the removal of the religious monument.

Tensions have always been high on these types of monuments because of the First Amendment’s protection of the separation of church and state. According to the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, “Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion.”

This statue could be offensive to certain groups of people, especially those who are not active in religious exercises.

The main reason this statue needs to be removed is because the local community needs a neutral state government, particularly one that does not shift toward a religious bias. Having a statue that represents a certain organized religion on state ground is a direct violation of the First Amendment to the Constitution.

For those who have not heard of it, the Establishment Clause was created to give citizens freedom to choose a religion which best suits their beliefs, while giving other citizens a freedom to live without any religion at all. This clause extends toward the government as well, according to the official U.S. Supreme Court website.

This clause takes precautions against governments choosing to side with people who believe in a certain religion, and it keeps people from being prosecuted

discrimination in mind.”

The Oklahoma Constitution states, “no public money or property shall ever be appropriated, applied, donated, or used, directly or indirectly, for the use, benefit, or support of any sect, church, denomination, or system of religion, or for the use, benefit, or support of any priest, preacher, minister, or other religious teacher or dignitary, or sectarian institution as such.”

This seems like a rather lengthy list stating the prohibition of government affiliations of any beliefs against any believers.

Prayer in public schools was discontinued because of the First Amendment to the U.S. constitution, which states the government may not impose or prohibit any religion.

The 1963 ruling of Abington School District v. Schempp stated public s c ho o l s ha v e s t ud e nt s with varied beliefs, so public schools should not be able to force them into joining the same prayer.

I agree with this because everyone is different and the greatness of this country is the ability to freely express our own beliefs and religions. Now, instead of a prayer, schools and other public organizations have a moment of silence.

The moment of silence is a time when if one wants to pray, they can, or if one doesn’t believe in praying, they can merely reflect or prepare oneself for the upcoming day or event.

No one is being forced to believe anything they do not want. This is not a Christian country or an atheist country. This is the U.S., where everyone is free to either believe or disbelieve on his or her own terms.

Five takeaways from Tech’s loss to Baylor T exas Tech lost to Baylor 63-35 on Saturday at AT&T Stadium.

Here are five takeaways from the game.

1. Tech did not start with same intensity When Tech took on No. 3 Texas Christian last week, the two teams exchanged blows the entire game. The Red Raiders kept up with the Horned Frogs and led at times. On Saturday, the game was almost immediately tied 7-7, but from late in the first quarter until the end of the game, Tech was down by at least two touchdowns. While Tech did not ever give up, it did not appear to match Baylor’s intensity, which is part of the

reason the team fell behind.

This could be a direct result of playing strong teams three weeks in a row.

2. Baylor has the most dynamic offense in the country On the third play of the game, junior running back Shock Linwood ran up the middle for a 79-yard touchdown. Later in the first quarter, Tech loaded the box and was

hit over the top for large passes to sophomore wide receiver KD Cannon and junior wide receiver Corey Coleman. When the Red Raiders covered the Bears receivers, junior quarterback Seth Russell has the ability to run, as he showed on Saturday. Because Baylor can beat a team in so many ways, they lead the country in yards and points per game.

3. Penalties looked like last season The Red Raiders committed by far a season-high in penalties against Baylor with 17 for 142 yards, which is one penalty short of the school-record, according to the Tech Athletics news

release. Coming into Saturday’s game, Tech was the best in the Big 12 Conference for least penalties and least penalty yards while Baylor was the opposite.

The Bears won the penalty battle by drawing eight penalties for 72 yards. For the past three weeks, the Red Raiders have kept penalties to a minimum but they shot themselves in the foot multiple times on Saturday.

4. Dropped passes are an issue again For the third time in five games this season, the Red Raider wide receivers had a problem with catching passes. Some of the drops

against Baylor were early in the game and on third down, which was a momentum swing. Freshman wide receiver Tony Brown made a highlight touchdown catch with a defender all over him along with other great catches by different players.

The receivers have shown the ability to catch tough passes but sometimes still drop the easiest passes.

5. Tech does not force a turnover again Tech had committed only three turnovers in four games this season but committed four against Baylor, two fumbles and two interceptions. The game was the first

time the Red Raiders lost the turnover battle this season.

Senior safety J.J. Gaines got an interception with seven seconds left before halftime, but the offense took a knee so the turnover did not help Tech. Russell had thrown four interceptions in three games before Saturday, and Tech defenders seemed to be close to more interceptions but could not quite get their hands on the ball.

It does not seem likely Tech will turnover the ball four times again this season but the turnovers added to an already bad showing. @JeremyK_DT

Players of the game against Baylor S

aturday, the Texas Tech Red Raiders met up with the No. 5 Baylor Bears in Arlington at AT&T Stadium for the 74th all-time meeting between the two schools.

The series was tied at 36 wins for both teams with one tie.

Baylor left Arlington with a 63-35 win over Tech for their first win in conference play in 2015 and improved its record to 4-0, while the Red Raiders fell to 3-2 on the season. Tech did have some players step up in the Red Raiders’ first conference road game.

Offensive Player: Le’Raven Clark One big factor that the Bears had an advantage on is their defensive lineman Shawn Oakman.

Brandon Soliz is a sophomore journalism major from Big Spring.

Oakman is a force for the Bears and is also an award contender for multiple defensive season awards.

However, senior Tech lineman Le’Raven Clark shut him down for a majority of the game as he was assigned to keep Oakman away from sophomore quarterback Patrick Mahomes II. Clark did his job well, as Oakman only accounted for one solo tackle against the Red Raiders.

Baylor’s line did have consistent pressure on Mahomes

II, but Oakman himself was not as a big of a game changer as he could be.

“They just did a great job of getting out and putting pressure on us, and we didn't handle it well,” Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said. “Baylor never let up the entire game.”

Clark’s performance definitely helped the Red Raider offense score as well as aided in the game not being dominated completely by Baylor on both sides of the ball.

Defensive Player: Keenon Ward Tech junior defensive back Keenon Ward was second in total tackles with 10 on the day and was behind redshirt freshman linebacker Dakota Allen with 13 tackles.

However, Ward did show he was in game mode as he

was able to step up for the Red Raiders, even in a 63-35 loss against a top five team.

Early on in the season Tech was forcing turnovers just how defensive coordinator David Gibbs was asking for.

This week, they were able to force one fumble and pickoff Baylor quarterback Seth Russell once.

“I think last year, I don’t know if (the defense) had that same fight, and they fought hard,” Kingsbury said. “I was just proud that our defense continued to fight and move past the setbacks at some point.”

Even with these turnovers, the defense was unable to keep up with Baylor’s wellbalanced offense.

Tech’s defense allowed the Bears to run for a total of 368 yards and pass for 312.

This was Tech’s second straight week playing two top 10 teams with both being Big 12 conference games.

Special teams: Nobody This week against Baylor no one really made a spark for the Red Raiders on special teams.

Senior wide receiver Jakeem Grant ran two kickoff returns for Tech which added up to a total of 59 yards.

“They did a lot of that last year and didn't want to get Jakeem the ball, which

ly Dai ay d Mon ial! c Spe

is smart,” Kingsbury said.

“They did a good job of where they were placing the kicks.”

His longest return was for 35 yards but was the longest play for the Tech special teams unit.

Tech will look for its first conference win of the season when it hosts the Iowa State Cyclones for the 2015 homecoming game at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday at Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock. @BSoliz_DT

Rangers win AL West on final day of regular season ARLINGTON (AP) — First-year manager Jeff Banister stood in a corner of the Texas Rangers clubhouse watching players celebrate, with champagne spraying all over the place.

A year after their 95 losses were the most in the American League, two months after they were still eight games out of first place and three days after ensuring themselves a postseason spot, the Rangers clinched the AL West title with a 9-2 victory over the Angels on the last day of the regular season.

“Incredible moment, emotional, one I’ll never forget,” Banister said. “They

never quit.”

Cole Hamels pitched a three-hitter, his first complete game since Texas acquired the ace left-hander from Philadelphia at the end of July, and team leader Adrian Beltre hit a go-ahead homer in the win Sunday, which eliminated Los Angeles from playoff contention.

Moments after the final out, an AL West championship banner was hanging beyond center field at the ballpark. A championship flag was hoisted on one of the six poles atop the massive video board in right field.

“This means a lot. I have never been on a team with as much heart,” said shortstop

Texas, which lost ace Yu Darvish to Tommy John surgery before the season even started, plays its first AL Division Series game since 2011 on Thursday at Toronto.

The Rangers clinched no worse than a wild card with

their 5-3 win in the opener of the four-game series Thursday night before the Angels, the 2014 division champs, won the next two games with ninth-inning rallies.

Texas gave up five runs in the ninth Saturday to lose 11-10 to the Angels as second-place Houston won its third straight game.

According to Elias, Texas was the first team in MLB history to lose a potential league- or division-clinching game in the last week of the season after having a lead of at least four runs in the ninth inning.

Cyberbullying causes negative self-image

BY MICHAEL CANTU Staff Writer

In the digital age, there are more instances in w h i c h p e o pl e can t a l k about others, and people can potentially damage reputations or have a negative impact on a person’s life.

With social media taking all sorts of directions in speed and efficiency, responses to anything anyone posts can be quick a n d e a s y. T h i s c a n b e problematic, Sharron Davis, executive director of Contact Lubbock, a suicide prevention organization, said.

Vi c t i m i z e r s c a n b e anonymous on whatever site they choose, she said, and they can give a negative response to anyone they choose.

“Well think about it, how would you feel if you got 300 messages in a short time frame, or even over a

week or a month, that are encouraging you to kill yourself?” Davis said.

Often times this leads to isolation for the victim, she said, which can result in negative thoughts and actions. There is no feeling of family or any type of relationships, and the individual can resort to self-inflicted abuse.

The actions of victimizers also go beyond bullying, Davis said. These actions are better categorized as harassment and not bullying because those that fall victim to it are usually prodded numerous times.

“That’s what a bully or someone cyberbullying is looking for: They’re looking for that reaction.

Because if you give that negative reaction, then guess what, you’re a target,” she said. “It’s like going fishing. What do you put at the end of a line? Bait.”

Kevin Thompson, a communication studies graduate student from Rising Star, said he was a victim of cyberbullying while going through a messy breakup.

After breaking up with his girlfriend, he said, friends of his ex decided to take it upon themselves to call him out on Twitter and Facebook.

Stunned by their actions, he said the only thing he felt there was to do about it was to try and ignore the statuses and post.

“I didn’t expect it to ever come from her. Likewise, some of her friends, I didn’t expect it to come from them either,” Thompson said. “And she told me that she can’t control what other people do.”

He said he explained to his ex she was the gatekeeper who could allow or prevent people from posting mean and hurtful comments on social media websites. Fortunately enough for Thompson, he said he was able to vent to friends and get opinions and advice from people outside of the situation. “ I t ’s r e a l l y d i f f i c u l t whenever you’re going

through a bad breakup to hear someone tell you that you should go kill yourself,” he said.

Most of his closest friends advised him to not speak to her for any reason, he said, and he followed their advice and almost completely threw all of those involved out of his life. However, even though he was not seeing what was going on by his ex and her friends, he said he was still able to hear talk from other people.

Through this experience, he noted that when the true colors of people are exposed, it seems equity and caring go out the window, he said.

There was an overt attempt at making his life a living hell, he said.

A person’s self-image is often damaged the most by cyberbullying, Anneliese Bustillo, prevention specialist in the Risk Intervention and Safety Education Office, said. Constant posts about others can often lead to depression and anxiety, which open the gate for far more harmful effects.

Insecurities can be hard for a person to resolve alone, Bustillo said, and

The Division of Institutional Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement is hosting the fifth annual diversity awards banquet with keynote speaker Juan Felipe Herrera.

The banquet will take place at 7 p.m. Monday in the McKenzie-Merket Alumni Center, according to a Texas Tech news release, and offers an opportunity to honor those encouraging diversity on campus and in the community.

Earlier this year, Herrera was appointed the 21st U.S. Poet Laureate, according to the release, and is the first Mexican-American to become

the nation’s poet laureate.

A c c o r d i n g t o t h e r elease, he is the author of 30 books, which include poetry, prose, short stories, young adult novels and children’s picture books.

Tickets cost $75 and VIP tickets are available for $100, according to the release, and proceeds benefit student scholarships.

Some of the past speakers at the event include actors Edward James Olmos and Terrence Howard, CNN and HBO correspondent Soledad O’Brien and ABC anchor John Quiñones, according to the release. @EastonWollneyDT

the anonymity that comes from social media can stilt someone’s communication and result in isolation, which worsens the anxiety and depression.

“We take a firm line that it is never the victim’s fault,” she said. “What happens in that situation is even if the victim thinks they could’ve done s o m e t h i n g d i f f e r e n t l y, they become obsessive with thinking they’re responsible for the actions.”

This becomes a toxic mindset because they become frightened of other people’s opinions, she said, and that makes their own decision making hard to do or be confident in. Instead of thinking what a person can do differently, they must rather think how could they have communicated an issue differently.

What then happens is seclusion, and people feel as though they have made themselves less of a target to the outside world, she said.

This then prevents them from having the experiences that used to make them happy, she said, and changes their perceptions on what they love and what society

and others tell them they should love.

Hindsight is 20/20, Bustillo said, and people cannot understand how strong they can be until they have reached beyond their own issues.

It becomes hard for a person to get past certain points when they are bullied, she said, and in some cases, the strain gets the best of them, and they take their own life.

“What’s difficult about that point is people don’t acknowledge that is the watershed moment,” Bustillo said. “I think people think that point is just another point, and it’s just going to escalate past that.”

Nobody knows where the last point of escalation is, she said, and until they find some distance from that point and realize they have lived through it, the path can be a hard one to forge.

“What I would encourage them to do is take every point as that (climax) point,” she said. “This can be the point that I stand up for myself, this will be the point I put an end to it, and this can be the point I seek help.”

EVENTS

Students, alumni and the community are able to attend the bonfire at 9 p.m. Friday at the bonfire pit near the rugby fields, according to the release, and RaiderGate will take place at 10:30 a.m. Saturday in the R-1 lot at the corner of 15th Street and Detroit Avenue.

Check back with The Daily Toreador on Thursday for more homecoming week coverage.

CONTINUED FROM PG. 1 A Matador Evening will take place at 6 p.m. Friday in the alumni center, according to the release.

The homecoming parade will also take place at 6 p.m. Friday starting at the Tech Broadway entrance, followed by a pep rally at 7:30 p.m. in the United Supermarkets Arena, according to the release.

Hillary Clinton does Saturday Night Live skit WASHINGTON (AP) — Set ‘em up, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and lend an ear to

the troubles of a presidential candidate.

The front-runner for the Democratic nomination appeared on the season opener of “Saturday Night Live” as a wise bartender named Val who pours a drink or two for, ahem, Hillary Clinton (played by “SNL” regular Kate McKinnon).

Most political candidates play themselves on “SNL,” often for just a cameo in a sketch or to declare the show’s famous tag line, “Live from New York — it’s Saturday night!” Seldom do they go all-out thespian and play a character in a sketch.

“So, Hillary,” Clinton asks McKinnon, “what brings you here tonight?”

“Well, I needed to blow off some steam,” McKinnon says. “I’ve had a hard couple of 22 years.”

Asked what she does for a living, McKinnon says in imitation of Clinton’s earnest monotone: “First, I am a grandmother. Second, I am a human, entrusted with this one green Earth.”

“Oh,” Clinton says, “you’re a politician.”

COLUMN

President’s call for stricter gun laws sensible P resident Barack Obama gave an openly frustrated speech calling for more gun control in response to the mass shooting at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon, on Thursday.

Chris Harper-Mercer, a student of UCC, had planned the massacre, which resulted in nine deaths and numerous injuries, according to a CNN article. Coming to class armed, Harper-Mercer had large amounts of ammunition on him and was wearing body armor.

After a fracas with police, Harper-Mercer was killed, and during the weekend was said to have taken his own life by Umpqua County officials.

After the gun battle, it was revealed the shooter had six weapons on him — five pistols and one shotgun, according to CNN. After searching his apartment the tally rose to 13 total, all obtained legally by either himself or family members.

Michael Cantu is a sophomore electronic media and communications major from New Deal.

According to the article, Celinez Nunez of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said all the guns had the correct paperwork and were purchased in Oregon. Earlier this year, Oregon gun laws became stricter, and the basis of the law was to ensure private dealers performed background checks on the individuals who bought weapons.

In his speech, Obama cited statistics that showed for every man, women and child in the U.S., there is a gun.

In his speech, Obama questioned the notion that relaxed gun laws make people safer, and in questioning this point, the president has challenged those who believe less gun safety laws make people safer.

POLICE BLOTTER

As of now, there has been no recent evidence to prove more guns make people safer. The last time research was done to try and prove this was in 1995, and the method of obtaining the statistic was harshly criticized.

But in the president’s speech, there were simple, irrefutable truths within every sentence. Numerous times it was brought up that instances like these were all too routine, and now is the time to act and prevent anything like this from happening. It is naïve to say that action will stop all forms of violence such as this from happening, but if we do not try, we cannot tell where the violence will end.

It is usually from afar that people voice their opinions on any type of gun restriction, and they are usually untouched by the violence that ensued. But the tone is a bit different from the families that are affected by mass shootings such as this.

After two journalists were gunned down on live televi-

sion in Virginia last month, Andy Parker, the father of victim Alison Parker, opened the dialogue for all lawmakers to make sensible laws that would help in preventing gun violence. It should not take people being killed on live television, or people being killed while they’re going to school, for the government to step in and fix a system that is broken.

The overwhelming majority of U.S. citizens believe gun laws should be stricter, so the inaction definitely rests in the hands of Congress and other politicians who are so locked in to their values that they refuse to change their opinions on anything. When asked about the incident, numerous Republican candidates shifted the conversation elsewhere or voiced blatantly rude and insensitive comments, which I refuse to repeat.

The president also talked about places like Aus-

tralia and Great Britain that, after seeing one mass shooting, developed more sensible laws while the U.S. chooses to debate these issues and not act on them.

The main point of the argument is whenever a mass shooting like this happens, the majority of the population thinks about how it will affect them and what it means for their own individuality, or at least that is what it seems. As witnesses to events like these, we do not feel what the families of these students, brothers, sisters, mothers or friends go through.

We are usually able to see our family and friends for another day and never even think about what the victims and their families are feeling. It is insensitive to argue for more guns and has to stop.

The call for stricter gun laws does not mean the government impedes on the right to bear arms, and it does not mean it is go-

CAMPUS

ing to take away people’s weapons. It only means the government knows a person is of sound body and mind, and the person can be trusted to use their firearm for reasons that do not cause violence.

We must not forget those affected, our thoughts go out to the families, not only for this tragic incident but also of the numerous other instances such as this.

These horrendous acts of violence can be stopped, and it is up to every U.S. citizen to rise up to the occasion and stop them.

We may not be able to solve for all forms of violence, but there should be nothing stopping us from trying. The right answer is not putting more weapons in people’s hands: That will make no one safe. The right answer is to be absolutely positive those with weapons do not intend to hurt other people. @MichaelCantuDT

Robert Peaslee, chairman of the Department of Journalism and Electronic Media, said in 2014 for National News Engagement Day, the college hosted a panel discussion on what engagement looks like today from

the perspective of campus and local news producers.

This year, the college focuses on the stakes surrounding engagement, Peaslee said in the release, and news engagement’s relationship to democratic citizenship, privilege and responsibility.

Peaslee said in the release Lithwick is an ideal guest to lecture on the topics the college wishes to focus on this year and feels fortunate to host her at Tech.

Lithwick has been a guest on CNN, ABC, “The Colbert Report” and “The Rachel Maddow Show,” according to the release, and covers topics such as politics, education and the law. @EastonWollneyDT
