On Monday April 23rd, 25 year old Toronto native Alek Minassian attacked a crowd of civilians, killing 10 and injuring 15. It may be easy to assume that this was an act of terrorism but nothing is confirmed. Either way the possibility that one could easily end the lives of so many innocent people is one we should be concerned with. The lack of protection regarding guns needs to be regulated so that the lives of ourselves and others aren't constantly in jeopardy. Both in our country and in others gun violence is a major issue that needs to be better addressed. Guns are very easily accesible and kill people almost instantly.
Even though we have the right to bear arms in this country (constitutional amendments whoop whoop) does't mean that they should be used for non-protective acts of violence. Guns should be better regulated so they don't end up in the wrong hands for things that could effect so many lives.
