Introduction
My name is Chipper Benoit and I am a senior at Glynn Academy. I am 18 years old and I live on Saint Simons Island, Georgia. I love to hunt, fish, and do just about anything outdoors. I am very friendly, talkative and I get along with most of the people I meet. When I am not in class, I love to hang out with my friends, cool it on the beach, and spend time in the woods. I am in duel enrollment because I would like to get a head start on my college degree. I plan on attending Georgia College and State University after high school and studying marketing.
This semester my group and I were asked to pick a subculture in America as our umbrella topic to learn about. As a group we chose to focus on various cults in America. We chose cults because they seemed kind of mysterious and creepy to us. We realized that one of us really knew anything about them and felt most people felt the same.I chose to go more in depth and focus my attention on the Branch Davidians and the "Waco, Texas massacre". The Branch Davidians caught my attention after I read about the "Waco Texas massacre". I was very impressed with their stand against the federal government and their ability to fend for themselves against the federal government.
