Did you know 48,830 people died in 2021 because of gun related injuries like murder, gun suicide, along whith some others like school shottings only in the U.S.
Guns are the leading cause of death for children and adults in the U.S., people are terrified for their lives or losing someone really close. Imagine going to the shops and hearing gunshots right next to you, your ears are ringing and hoping for the best.
There have been 13,900 people dead just from gun violence in the U.S.
The U.S. government needs to make a change to this because everyone is terrified, and worried of DYING!
This example is important because little kids are horrified in their classroom. This can be proven by the amount of school shootings there have been in the U.S.
In 47 weeks there have been 46 school shootings,that basically means one shooting every week. THATS CRAZY! The impact of this will change your life forever by losing your child or having them horribly injured.
Thirdly an important fact is America's gun laws are way worse than our country Australia's gun laws. We have had one shooting and we haven’t had one since. This was in Tasmania 1996 that left 35 people dead and some severely injured. America's gun laws are so much dissimilar. In America These shootings still happen to this day. In fact there have been more shootings than days so far in 2023. There needs to be a change.
It is clear that the issue of gun violence can affect you and your life. It is only getting worse as time goes on. Some Americans say that guns save lives but it is proven that guns lead to huge problems. We need to act now before it gets even more serious. You can help by signing petitions, writing letters And spreading the word.

“Hurry up '' I say. Sometimes I wonder how we are going to survive if we are this slow. I can see Nazis and some other kids that look around my age. They are looking at me with a really strange look. “What” I scream at them. He tries to scare me but it doesn't work. I go up to zelda and tell her we need to get off this train. “I think the nazis are onto me” I say while making her jump with me. “Oh noo, we left shaya on the train”. “Stop crying” I replied. “We need to get away from the Nazis”. We can't go back. We sprint into the forest, then we climb up a tree. “Quiet Zelda” I whispered. They went right under us. I am thinking of the bad, what would've happened if this turned out to be horrible. “Just wait a little longer” I say as I watch our backs. We ran the opposite way they went and get out of this area.
