Truly, it is a daily thing of someone losing their life to senseless violence. If it isn’t some type of killing in the United States, whether it is the Chicago violence or cop shootings, it is war overseas. The past year has seen Syria become the focus of that.

Last month was filled with violence between cops and the Black community. After all of the innocent killings, some police officers were also killed. All lives do matter, but an innocent life taken doesn’t make up for the other life taken.

In Syria, some rebels shot down a Russian helicopter that they believed was carrying soldiers. Five people were killed, but it turns out, they were not there to fight. Instead, they were aids coming with supplies to help Syria and no one from the rebels’ camp is coming forward to claim this one.
