Opening Statement
May it please the court. My name is Lamisa Haque. My co-counselor is Jae Park. The following issue is before this court today: Mao Ze-dong has willfully oppressed and denied the people of China basic human rights. We will argue that Mao Ze-dong is innocent of this charge. Today you will hear from many devoted people who tried to change China by listening to Mao's commands to make a better China. Among them you will hear a Red Guard speak. You will hear Officers, and children of the Revolution. You will also hear Mao Ze-dong talk himself, to prove that his only intention was to make a better China. He will tell you that he did not intentionally take away the rights of the people of China. What he did do is create a new communist contry that was stronger than the China of before. He tried to bring equality to the people of China and help them become a new and Revolutionary china.

How To Annoy Someone In An Elevator
Elevators are a really interesting place. Have you ever wondered how annoying you can be in them? Well, I’m about to tell you.
If you think about it, there are many, many ways. I will try and tell you all the ones that I could think of. First is the easiest one of all. Just press all the buttons! The next person who walks in won’t be very happy. Now, don’t you hate it when, there is someone who is whistling a really annoying tune, and they won’t stop? They just go on and on and on… you have to be that person. Think of the most annoying tune you can and just whistle. If they ask you to stop whistle louder. I know it sounds mean, but if you want to annoy someone, you can’t care about that. Isn’t it irratating when there are stairs and people can go down perfectly but they don’t because they are all just so lazy?
