Year 2015, July 1st, 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle was shot by Jose Inez Garcia Zarate. It all began with a police officer leaving his weapon in a backpack behind the driver’s seat of his SUV while he and his family went to dinner.
Meanwhile, as the officer was enjoying eating dinner with his family, he came back to find his car window smashed and his gun was gone. This was when the scene started to kick in. What’s to be a fact is that if the gun has been properly locked away, Steinle would likely still be alive.
Another awful situation is the recent Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Trump calls out Scott Peterson, the armed officer who didn’t stop the gunman responsible for Florida’s massacre, a “coward.”
In response to the school shooting, Trump says he wants to arm teachers. Trump suggests that teachers should get a “bit of a bonus” for carrying guns. According to The New York Times. “I don’t want teachers to have guns, I want certain highly adept people, people that understand weaponry, guns if they really have that aptitude.”

Lately in the U.S., we’ve been experiencing a lot of awful situations, such as things that could of been simply resolved by the government. Most of these situations were actually caused by our government, if you deeply think about it.
Our government should always be supporting the people and the important needs in our community. Many people are protesting for their rights and problems we need to fix, but I don't think the government takes it seriously.
It’s about time the government should start taking our word into consideration to improve our needs about how we live our lives. There are many problems and bad decisions the government has been doing lately.
A bad decision that the government has made would be the chemical attack against Syria. Reason why this was a bad decision is because it took away many innocent children lives that either suffered or died from the attack.
For example, Trump has been removing many U.S. policies . that helped and supported the people in need of it. One of them being the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, also known as DACA. There’s millions of immigrants out there that were covered by DACA. It provides an opportunity for a segment of the undocumented immigration population to remain in the country without having the feeling of fear or deportation in this country (According to American Immigration Council).
Another policy removal under Trump’s Administration would be net neutrality. The removal of net neutrality will affect many people and how we use the internet. According to Fortune, the elimination of net neutrality will carve up internet providers services into fast and slow lanes, charging more for higher speeds.
Don’t be surprised that this is it, there’s yet more to come from the U.S. government. All of these actions, statements, etc… have been really impactful.
The U.S. government should start to take the American people more seriously. They don’t really think about the people that are going downhill.
