TS #10 - Brad Charlassier
My 10th tutoring session was with Dojun over Skype. Today we discussed the recent terrorist attack in Niece, France. To my surprise, Dojun was unaware that this travesty had happened at all. I explained how there was a large festival going on in the streets in celebration of Bastille Day. Suddenly a truck rammed through the police that had setup a barricade to prevent any cars from coming through, and started running over all the poor people who were there to have a good time and enjoy themselves and their country. e was saddened to hear this. He also asked what Bastille Day was so I had to explain to him that Bastille Day is the French Independence Day. I asked Dojun how he thinks the French will respond to this attack. He said he remembers the tragedy in Paris happened not too long ago, but he doesn't think France will start attacking the Middle East. He said if it were the United States, that would definitely happen, but he thinks France will slowly work their way toward something and not do anything immediately. We also talked about the pros and cons of declaring war if you were to be France. I ended up needing to describe what a "pros and cons" list was, but once I explained it and made an example one he had no problem at all with creating one for France.
