Chloe Villa-Abrille Changes because of Shootings?


     Senate Bill 7022 will not be changed even though the lives of any were taken along with it. It seems as though the lives of the children are to be less important to lawmakers than donations from the NRA. What was to remove the ability to own a rapid or automatic weapon was soon decided to be something that would fade to the back of peoples minds as student must now go back to school as if nothing happened. Students have banned together in support for one another, and in hopes of making changes as well, but even so not enough people are working to this cause, and people are going on with their lives in fear, wondering wether or not they’ll be shot in a supposedly safe public area. Students are expected to go back this week, yet many are conflicted over wether or not to, over all this situation is extremely complex and no one is doing anything to solve it.
The shooting is one of the numerous mass shootings in America, relating to the Columbine mass shooting. Even after a shooting that shocked America, nothing has been done, and has thus repeated many times, yet with no change. America can be stubborn in its ways, when something becomes the norm here people have a hard time giving it up, sadly that has happened with guns as well. It relates to prohibition were America threw a fit over the removal of alcohol, sadly this is the case for this country, no matter what it is, if it’s taken away there will always be a side that will justify having it because of the influences of money and power.
