The wrong focus

Boom! 

Another teacher, student, child, adult, human being down buy a single small bullet. 

Another problem the government must search for a solution. Ban school, ban backpacks, get metal detectors, all so called “ Solutions” to guns. Guns are what kill the people yet no one is thinking of taking them away, “they are for self defense” sure it defense but it also kills! How many more shots is it going to take for someone to open their eyes and realize the real problem. 

Boom! 

Another parent scared to let their child leave the house watching them everywhere they go looking over every street and corner, “school is a safe learning environment” things have changed teens have been killed by fellow class mates who are angry! Yet it’s never the guns fault! Giving someone a gun is giving them power to kill. 

Boom! 

Soon becoming a usual sound that people barley glances at, praying every time they leave the house please don’t be me.

BOOM!
