Have you ever imagined of a crimeless world? No shootings, no thefts, no sexual abuse, no children abuse, no fighting, and no killings? I have definitely thought about of it. It would make the world so much safer and better. There would be a brighter and safer future for our children.

I remember listening to a song in my class called, “No Guns Allowed” , by Snoop Lion, Drake and Cori B. We had to make a reflection about that song and share our thoughts regarding the message of the song. Basically, it was talking about how there should be no more guns since people are using them for killing innocent people. I also heard other languages in the song that imply that this is not only happening in America and Canada, but also around the world. Innocent blood is shed around the world through shootings and by dangerous groups of people that take away innocent lives using other means. For example, ISIS is one of the most powerful terrorist group and they want an Islamic empire, so to achieve that they behead people, have hostages, and they get a lot of money. They have killed a lot of people and mostly through beheadings which make the death even more gruesome.

I want killings around the world to stop. Innocent lives have been taken away and no one is deserved to die that way. I hope that in the future these crimes will eventually be put to an end and I believe that everyone in this civilised world has similar thoughts. We thank God for protecting us and that we are still alive.
