Two white students from Africa were accused of racism for painting their faces black to portray  Venus and Serena Williams at a costume party. Social media reaction that mentioned "blackface," which was common in old American minstrel shows featuring white performers as stereotyped black characters. The problem was that the University said that it could cause offense but they didn't want to jump to conclusions  and say that they boys had the intent to offend anymore or be racist.

2) Floridians will have the chance to weigh in on a ballot measure that would ease the homestead tax burden on low-income seniors, while critics warn the measure would put a more financial strain on everyone else or result in cuts to local government services 

3)A police officer witnessed three men pacing in front of a jewelry store and suspected that a robbery was being planned. He approached the men and identified himself, then performed frisks of defendants Chilton and Terry and discovered illegal concealed weapons. Defendants were convicted and appealed, claiming that the frisk violated their Fourth Amendment right against unlawful searches and seizures.
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction, finding that when a law enforcement officer has "reasonable grounds" for suspecting that a criminal suspect may be armed, he may pat down the outer layer of the suspect's clothing for weapons. The ruling held that the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures is not violated when a pat down is performed based on reasonable suspicion for the purpose of ensuring officer safety.

1)No, I don't not believe that it is the parents fault when their kid does something tragic when they have a mental illness, hints the fact that its a mental illness and they cant help it or control it. Yes a lot of kids can get medicine and things to help their kids but a lot of the time parents will take their kids to the hospital when something goes wrong and the doctors will look at them and say that nothing is wrong. This is when things go wrong because the children weren't treated when needed. The parents were always there, and they tried to get them help but there is only so much that the parents can do with a kid with a mental illness.
