Gandhi



Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
He was born 2 October 1869 to Karanchand (Dad) and Pitlibai (Mom). He was born and raised in Hindu Bania. Gandhi is the son of a Senior Government Official. By time he was 13 he had gotten married to Kasturba Gandhi, there she gave him four sons.
In 1888 he was 18 he had traveled for the first time leaving his wife and newborn son behind, in order to study to become a barrister or also known as a lawyer in London. Gandhi spent three months in London to fit in to the English society; he had bought suits and fine-tuned his accent taking dance and violin lessons. After three months of the expenses he left he found it a waste of time and money.
A few days later Gandhi sailed back home. For two years he attempted practicing the law in India, but unfortunately he lacked both knowledge of Indian law and self-confidence at trials. He was offered a year-long position to take a case in South Africa. Ate age 23 he set off from home again arriving in South Africa in May of 1893. He was hoping to earn at least a little bit of money, and also to learn more about law. In South Africa he became a very quiet and shy man to a resilient and potent leader against discrimination. After about a week in South Africa he was asked to take a long trip from Natal to the capital of the Dutch-governed Transvaal province of South Africa for his case. He had to travel by train and by stagecoach for a several day trip. Gandhi had a first-class ticket for the train, but he was told to move to third-class passenger car, he had refused; a police man came and threw him off the train. Instead of wanting to go home to India, he couldn’t let injustices continue and he wanted to fight to change the discriminatory.
 By time it was 1896 he had been living in South Africa for three years. Gandhi sailed back to India hoping to bring his wife and his sons back with him. When he got back he found out that there had been a bubonic plague outbreak, due to the poor sanitation. Gandhi helped inspect the latrines of the untouchables as well as the rich. He noticed the rich had the worst sanitation problems. On 30 November 1896 he and his family traveled to South Africa.
In 1948 Gandhi was walking to Birla House with a crowd surrounding him as he walked, as well as being supported by two of his grandnieces. A young Hindu Nathuram Godse stopped before him and bowed. Godse rushed forward and shot Gandhi three times with a black, semi-automatic pistol. Even though he had survived five other assassination attempts, this one sent him falling to the ground, dead.

My ID theft thoughts

What I learned about ID theft is that is can end more dangerous then what it seems, you could be paying for something you didn't do because you had you had your ID stolen. You could lose are your credit that you had when someone uses your personal information as their own.

I could altar my current behavior by not giving out anything when someone ask, I could simply tell an adult about something that I'm being asked, and they could take care if it.

Yes, I found the information helpful, it shows that we need to be more careful of what we put in line, such as we don't list our school, age, anything that can help them find someone that they can completely ruin their life.
