" Guy Fawkes was subsequently tried as a traitor with his co-conspirators for plotting against the government. Lancelot Andrewes delivered the first of many Gunpowder Plot Sermons. This practice, together with the nursery rhyme, ensured that this crime would never be forgotten! The 'guys' are made by children by filling old clothes with crumpled newspapers to look like a man. "
Here is the rhyme for the 5th of November :
"Remember remember the fifth of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
I see no reason why gunpowder, treason
Okay so today in class we talked about the 5th of November, since today is 11-05-10. And the(UK) people that celebrates the 5th of November they use old clothes and fill them with newspapers, to create a guy ( or man ). Then they would display their "guy" and ask the people that pass by for a penny for the "guy". They celebrate the 5th of November because they want to warn people not to repeat the crime that Guy Fawkes had done.
Though on their 5th of November they celebrate stuffing old clothes with papers to look like a man, but today, the 5th of November, we are talking about Oscar Grant's death, and Johannes Mehserle. How Johannes Mehserle killed Oscar Grant on Jan. 1, 2010. And Johannes Mehserle only needs to be sentenced for two years in jail for the death of Oscar Grant.

" Johannes Mehserle sentencing stuns Oscar Grant supporters, sparks riots in Oakland " -from this website <----Every one is protesting about how Johannes Mehserle should deserve more than two years in jail, and protestants think that the gun enhancement law should been applied. Since, Mehserle used his gun, and killed Oscar Grant. If it was not for that Mehserle was a police, he would not have sent to jail for two years. If he was not a police the gun enhancement law could of been applied.
On 5th of November, people in UK celebrate the 5th of November ---> Guy Fawkes Day, while there are helicopters for security for the protesting for Oscar Grant / Johannes Mehserle.
