School Shooting

It's sad to read about a new school shooting where innocent people gets killed. This time it happened at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.  Nikolas Cruz, 19, was charged with the crime of killing at least 17 people (15 others are wounded and in serious condition).

Which bring us to the Gun Control debate, and Republicans want no part of it. The Gun Lobbyist pour money into their campaigns. They have their hands tied. In my opinion, we need to have some sort of control over these weapons (automatic) which are used on most of these shootings. As Senator Chris Murphy said: “Let me just note once again for my colleagues …This happens nowhere else other than the United States of America, this epidemic of mass slaughter, this scourge of school shooting after school shooting. It only happens here, not because of coincidence, not because of bad luck, but as a consequence of our inaction,”

I do not know what is going to happen if any legislation will come out of this; one thing is for sure: there will be more shootings in the future unless something is done about it.Image result for AR-15 rifle

T. G. I. F.

My favorite day of the week is got to be Friday! As soon as bell rings for my last class, I am relax and I am in "kick-back" mode! We usually eat out on Friday or order Pizza. Once I am home, I catch up with my shows and or news. I also watch the Friday shows such as: Dateline, 20/20, and 48 Hours. After watching TV, I will play games on my computer, drink lots of coffee and go to bed at 2:00 a.m. if not later. Happy Friday!
