As of recent, there has been another shooting during worship. In Poway, California, 19-year-old John Earnest opened fire in a synagogue, killing one person and injuring three people. The rabbi, Yisroel Goldstein, witnessed the whole event. He saw fear and danger in a place that should be safe and peaceful. This attack coincides with other anti-Semitic shootings, such as the attack on the synagogue in Pittsburgh and mosques in New Zealand. Goldstein believes that the U.S. government should recognize that these types of shootings are a new reality and increase security in places of worship.
Nobody should have to die in a place of worship. People who follow a religion should be able to attend their place of worship without the fear of being killed.

This is ridiculous people should be able to feel safe anywhere but that can’t because of people doing terrible things like this.
