Fight the “Good” Fight
Every day I wake up to the news, every day it's the same: violence, killing, crime, hate. Currently there is a race for government offices, so we get to see commercials about corruption, lying, and people whose only concern is themselves. We take this in and try to decide who is the lesser of many evils. We watch the news and think why do they show all these horrible events. But this is what we have all accepted, like it or not. If it's not violent, if it's not a crime, it's not news. I am guilty like many others of seeing "fluff stories" and saying, really is that news? We are bored with the good. Nobody wants to hear about someone paying for someone else's cup of coffee. Nobody believes in a commercial about a politician who does things for others just because. We all hate and our saddened by these mass killings, but what can we do about that it? Whatever side you are on, on gun laws, I doubt anyone is on the side of children being killed. What I am writing is not about gun laws, I am not debating which party is better. What I am writing about is being "good." We can't change everything in the world, but we can try to make things better. For the record I do not believe anyone needs a weapon that’s only use is to kill multiple people quickly. I mean, bombs aren’t legal. Why is that? Because, there is only one reason to have them; mass killing.
