In Palestine, Afghanistan andSyria innocent children and teachers were killed in schools because of the wars.
A medical examiner, Dr. H. Wayne Carver said at a news conference Saturday the deaths are classified as homicides; saying that he believes “everybody was hit more than once.”
Why must this happened?
Now, the United States of America seems to be facing a very big problem – mass shooting.
It happened everywhere in public places, cinema,malls, schools and lots of other places that should be safe from this kind of disaster.
I am very sad especially because I am also a kid and I know that there is nothing much that kids could do to protect ourselves in such situations.
I wonder why that happens again and again.
Maybe the freedom of owning guns in America, allowed some people to use the guns for killing other people.
But why must they killed other people, the people who they didn’t even know?
And is it the right thing to let people own guns freely?
Owning guns means that they can use them any time and any where; even for mass shootings.
May be the problems started because there is too much freedom and human rights.
May be some people might think that it is their rights to do what ever they want to do with their guns; including mass killing.
Is all this fair for children like me?
I don’t think so.
How about our rights as children, should kids carry guns too to protect ourselves like adults?
I guess America has too much freedom when too much freedom is not always good.
Americans are very proud of their freedom and liberty.
“My country ‘tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty…”
“…From every mountain side,
Let the freedom ring.”
So people are always fighting for their rights and freedom in everything without thinking about other people’s rights.
They may become selfish and had forgotten about good values especially of respecting others.
So, too much freedom is not always good.
And to the Malaysians who support the oppositions parties especially PKR fighting for total freedom, and look at the United States as an ideal example, please think about all these.
If they follow United States of America in fighting for freedom and human rights, this is what that will happen to Malaysia later on.
Total freedom seems to be a nice idea, but is it really good for all of us, our communities and our country?
I am very sad and sorry for all the victims’ families and friends.
