What the heck is wrong with us?


There is so much wrong. 18 year olds are going out, buying guns, and shooting up elementary schools. Elementary schools. That means 5,6,7,8,9,10 year olds  dying. For no reason at all. Children who could've had a wonderful life, filled with joy and laughter. So many things to enjoy. Instead, they are dead. No chance at life, to experience the joys and sorrows, the things that other  children will get to do. And what scares me the most is that the Supreme Court is not doing anything about this. That means that this could continue to happen. And that is scary. But what scares me the most is that if our government cant or won't  do anything about this, then what about the other issues, like climate change? The children, including me, in this world are the ones who have  to have a future in a warming climate, the girls have to fear for their rights, and now the violence is getting worse. So many shootings. So much death, so much hate. If the Supreme Court has outlawed abortion, what else will they do? Will they do nothing to prevent future mass shootings? Will they do nothing to prevent further climate change? Will they take away more rights? I fear for my and other childrens future in this world. But if that has to be the case, then a believe that we, as the youth in this country, should stand up and protest these injustices, and work to make our country, and our world, a better place.
