Hundred of worshipers killed in Sri Lanka- Madison Malonson

 On Easter Sunday there were suicide bombings at three catholic churches and three hotels in Sri Lanka. 290 people have died and about 500 were injured. The attacks seem to be "well coordinated" and 13 people have been arrested due to the belief that they were involved. The bombings were the "deadliest attack on Christians in South Asia in recent memory" and have struck horror throughout the region.
 It is so incredibly sad that people can't even celebrate Easter without the fear of danger. This attack was the climax event of the growing nationalism and terrorism in Sri Lanka.

  1. It seems like these kinds of attacks are happening constantly & we need to figure out a way to stop people from being radicalized & hurting people just based on their religion.

  2. This shows that this world is just getting worse and worse and that these people are getting out of hand and nothing is safe anymore.
