So what if they were bullying. No one deserves to die. If someone was bullying you would you kill them. No you wouldn’t if you were self conscious. Everyone deserves a life even if they make a small mistake. You can’t just take a life away for bullying

I am a 7th grader and I have heard about many tragic events in several news networks. I am personally praying and mourning the deaths of these fellow Americans. It is cruel and unjust of what happened to them. They lost their lives because the government could not impose more restrictive gun control laws. I am personally not going to stand for this injustice and I will make sure this message gets to everyone. The world is constantly evolving into mayhem. It is up to us to protest against these gun laws. It might very well be one of us who could have been through this shooting. So tomorrow I will wear red to signify that I will not stand for violence of any sort. Whether it is violence in the form of bullying, or violence in the form of a threat, you should stand up. A couple of days ago I was inspired by these young high schoolers. They protested all the way to the state capital. I decided to stand up against violence after I heard this. I was being bullied by this kid since the beginning of sixth grade. He used to be my friend, but in sixth grade he started harming me in the form of physical harm. I told my teachers but they wouldn’t listen. I didn’t know what to do about it. Until February 14, I didn’t take any action against this bullying. But on that day, the high schoolers inspired me to take action. My parents told me to take action. The words I said were and I quote exactly what I said; “If you harm me in any shape or form, then I will fight back and believe me, I will bring this issue to the principal.” He seemed pretty worried that I would tell the principal Andy he decided to stay away for a while. Today he started to bully me again. After reading this article, tomorrow, if he hurts me I will fight back. So the reason I posted this was to tell everyone to protest against violence tomorrow. In fact, protest against violence everyday. Tomorrow, try to wear red to show that you will not tolerate violence. Tommorow, make sure to try and stop any form of violence in your school. My thoughts and prayers go out to all victims of gun violence. I hope you all Rest In Peace. #TAKEACTION
