I am very concerned about the mass shootings that happen almost every day in this country.

I believe in the right to self-defense, but I don’t need a military-style weapon. Why are these available to anyone? To me they should be against the law. Only the military and our police force should have those.

I do not believe in evil anymore; people who do these crimes are either mentally or emotionally ill, or damaged by abuse when young. Some vulnerable people are also programed by racist groups.

I believe we seriously need to address these issues. Why all the racism? I believe we are all created equal.
