Guns. A big, awkwardly shaped, black piece of metal that shoots bullets into people. People that have real-life flesh, and blood pumping through them. People that have hopes, dreams, aspirations, and goals to fulfill. How dare any person feel that they have the right to take those things away from someone.

Wake up people, we are not living in a video game. You do not have unlimited lives, and you can not undo the actions you partake in. No matter how hard your life is, and no matter how hurt you feel it is not to be taken out on innocent people. They did nothing to you, they are not a part of your pain. Take action for your suffering, see a therapist or reach out straightforward for help. It is so much better to even scream out for help rather than keeping it bottled up. Bottling your emotions is a lonely game, it will leave you doing things you would never do.

An infant is born innocent, and clean, and pure with no anger. What is this world doing to people, that in the time of their upbringing something goes so terribly wrong that they feel the need to kill and end the lives of others forever? Whether you believe in a God, or are religious at all there is no doubt that something evil strikes people every day. What else could empower someone to the point of hurting others so badly?

Pain is mental, pain is physical, pain is for everyone. Why is it that people in the US feel that they don't have other resorts rather than turning mental pain into physical harm? Why hasn't more been done, and why are their so many people with so much built up emotion?

Every situation that is horrific and happens from a person or group of people gets blamed on their upbringing. Which I get, everyone goes through different things all of the time.

I am tired of people's actions being blamed on what they have gone through, or who they have lost.

People lose people every day, but only a small percentage takes that anger out on others by hurting others.

I lost a lot of people before my 18th birthday, as I know a lot of friends who have gone through the same. The point is everyone hurts, and everyone grieves. But most of these people are not going and killing others to satisfy this pain.

We need to have more outlets for people that are hurting. It needs to stop being such a hidden thing. In this century we are supposed to mask our pain and move on. We are supposed to keep busy and keep moving. The truth is we need time to stop and be sad and love others to get through it.

The people that aren't doing this are the people causing more and more hurt. The people that feel they have nowhere to turn, and it is no longer an excuse.

The 21st century has gotten off to a bad start. With so much violence, anger, and hurt. It is not too late to turn it around. To make it better. To heal, to mend, and to fix for the following years and decades to come.

Let's fix it.
