On 10/31 a terror attack caused the death of 8 pedestrians and bicyclists and injured many more on the streets of New York. The suspect, Sayfullo Saipov, exited his truck immediately following the attack and was shot in the abdomen. He is currently hospitalized, and it is believed that he was acting alone.
The significance of this article is to inform people of the tragic events that occurred today in New York, and it was very successful in doing so. It is very unfortunate to see terror attacks like these becoming much more abundant in US. This event mirrors the Las Vegas shooting a few weeks ago in that the suspect was acting alone, but unlike that tragedy, the suspect in this attack was acting with the Islamic State.

It angers me to see more terror attacks but sadly it doesn't really surprise me. With the current state of the world it has almost become second nature to see news headlines like this. We need to stand up and do something about these acts of terror but the question is how.

ReplyDeleteI’m sad that the kids that are being born today are being born into a world with a ridiculous amount of terror attacks happening repeatedly whether it’s due to a crazy man, or specifically against America. Our generation was born into a world with war and now these babies born from millinials are born into terrorist attacks. That’s sad. Idek what else there is to say. That’s just straight up sad, and I don’t even mention babies born In countries aside from America.
This is sad. It hasn't even been a month since the Las Vegas shootings and now we have another terror attack. What has this world become to? A century of war and conflict passed by. It looks like another century of conflict, terror, and etc is about to occur.
