Journal 2

I just finished reading how Amity Island Mayor wants to keep the shark talk to a minimal so tourist don't get the wrong idea and decide to take their July 4th vacation elsewhere (a different island). This personally is quite sickning how the mayor of the town would keep a tragedy like this quiet just to make some more cash for himself but gangsters too. It's funny how the mofia is brought into the book a little and how they run the town in the novel. In the movie I saw no indication of there ever being mobsters. When the news came up the mayor did everything in his power to keep the beach open with no indication of there ever being a shark attack, he wouldn't even allow signs warning visitors of what happend. This just shows what money can do to a person in power, they get greedy and always need a little more. I'm hoping soon the story will start to pick up once everyone is 100% that there is a shark in the water, because as of now it does at times get very hard to read through.
