  3. I think politicians are someone who serve the people, not for their own benefit.
    However, violent will not be the right way to express their opinion forever.

  7. I think both of them are bad. If someone make a mistake, other people don't have a right to hurt him.

  10. I don't like attending a gorgeous party, so I cannot understand why Akira wanted to have such a party! However, I pity him for being injured because of such a small thing!
