Analysis: This article was written yesterday, on Saturday, March 23rd, 2019, which was the same day that this horrible event occurred. This portrays that the information is mainly up to date. The target audience of this article is the whole world, or even people of the same ethnicity as the victims of this massacre. It was written to keep us informed of such violent uprisings that are occurring around the world. It is truly horrible that some people are injured, or even worse, killed, because of who or where they worship and because of the culture that they believe in.
