As most of you may know there was a shooting in Orlando, Florida at a night club. I think the whole situation is sad. It makes me mad that people do stuff like that. Whether there was intention or mental illness that is no excuse. Guns are weapons and without guns in this world death rate would be much lower than what it is. 

Also a young lady by the name Christina Grimmie was shot at an event where she had just performed. She was having a little interaction with her fans when a man decided to shoot her. She died and for what? Nothing.

These two documented events happened in the time span of 3 days. It makes me upset that no matter where you go you aren't safe. People can't just enjoy their lives anymore without living in constant fear of being attacked.

I watched a moving called Bowling For Columbine and in the movie it was said that America is so used to hearing about tragic events that we are numb to it. I find this true because when I heard about this shooting I was just numb to it because I've heard so many other incidents about killings, terrorist attacks, violence, and so on. I know humans are prone to make mistakes but this is just ridiculous.

And another thing. I'm so sick and tired of people automatically blaming everything on a mental disorder. You can't tell me that every incident that's happened in the past year has been from someone with a mental disorder.

How do feel about everything I talked about?

What about gun control or no guns at all?

Do you feel that other weapons are a threat or is it just guns?
