Harry + Niall + Louis + Liam + Zayn
Harry: How many people have to die due to gun related violence before America sees that their laws are wrong?
Niall: America isn't the only country that allow guns, Harry. Every country has them.
Harry: I understand that. But, We can't just go to a gun store in the UK and purchase a pistol though.
Louis: Harry, it's not the gun that kills people- it just helps them get the job done. Humans need to stop being fuck wits and respect each other.
Liam: Personally, I think that guns and weapons of any sort should be banned from the public in every country. There's no need for us to keep a gun in our house.
Harry: That was the exact point I was try to get at! So many innocent people are dying from bullets. It's not right. We don't need them.
Zayn: The death rate in Palestine, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq and surrounding countries puts the gun violence in the USA to shame. If you're going to be against gun violence you need to consider all countries involved. Not just the one where famous people are killed.
Harry: I honestly do pray for everyone involved in gun violence, regardless of the country. I pray for everyone involved in any violence, really. I want to make this world a better place and I know that the words that I say aren't going to make a difference in this world but the least I can do is try.
Niall: We're all against gun violence, but just because some people go crazy and start shooting people doesn't mean the entire country (all countries) should have to give up their weapons.
Liam: Are they really needed though? Like, I've grown up without a pistol in my house and we did/are doing just fine.
Zayn: Honestly, I hate that guns are tossed around these days. People aren't scared to take another man's life anymore and that's the fucked up world we live in.
Harry: There has to be a way though. Like, why not make people pass a mental health examination before purchasing a fire arm?
Niall: Liam and Louis, god forbid this ever happens to the two of you! But, if an intruder is in your house while your son was around wouldn't you like to at least have a gun for protection?
Louis: Yes, I'd do anything to protect my son. But, I also wouldn't use it just to protect him. I have Harry to protect as well.
Harry: As much as I love you, I'd hate it if you killed someone for me.
Louis: If it came down to either you or them, it would be them.
Liam: I'd just like to think that wouldn't ever happen to me. If it did I'd get Cheryl and Bear to hide and contact the police while I distracted the intruder away from my family.
Harry: This conversation is making me more emotional. I'm closing this chat down. Talk to you lads later. x

Rest In Peace, xxxtentacion.
Jahseh and I are the same age. I couldn't even begin to imagine losing my life so early.
My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family right now.
Violence is never the answer.
