One main topic that is roaming the internet, and society is gun violence. This past year we have seen many fatal events that have occurred in America that have led to many people losing their lives and leaving others seriously ill. For example, The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting that occurred in Florida led 17 people dead and 19 people injured. Another awful event that occurred, and left American's scared, and confused was the Las Vegas shooting because of this event 57 people lost their lives. Not to mention it was recorded the deadliest mass shooting by an individual in The United States. This could of easily been avoided if we had better gun control laws. Every year we as citizens see more innocent people die due to gun violence. According to Everytown for gun safety article 13000 homicide occur in the United States each year, and 62% of firearms deaths in the United States are suicide. This article easily shows how many people are hurting others and themselves by having easy access to guns. I'm fully aware that nobody can take guns away from people, just like everything else people will find a way to get access to them.  I do believe that America should make it harder for people to get access to a gun. Many things that they should consider is strictly checking their record and forcing everybody to register to receive a gun. By doing this maybe we can control gun violence, and avoid any more deaths caused by guns.

In the article Can You Keep a Secret on International Women's Day? by Pat LaMarche, it goes into a lot of detail of how a woman still has to struggle to get the same pay and respect as a man. It also states that a woman gets judged by the way she is dressed, and the way she carries her body. Not for what she has to offer or how hard she works.

Over the years many women have been involved in protesting and fighting to get treated equally it still doesn't seem fair that a woman has to work twice as hard to be taken seriously. The article also mentions that woman are not getting treated with respect in other parts of the world. It's no secret that woman who live in a different part of the world get treated as property, and not as a person.
We as woman have really changed over the years we have definitely grown and became stronger knocking the man down hard and fast.

One main topic of this article includes our president. The author calls out Trump for talking down about Ms.Clifford. His defenders mentioned that Ms.Clifford can't be taken "serious" due to her lifestyle. Looking back on Trump's behavior, and the way his running our country should he be taken seriously? Many people will say no, and I would agree.

The article does not specify who the main audience is, but I believe that it's towards anybody who doubts a woman. The author's credibility is supported by true events that happen in the past and are currently happening.

I definitely agree with this article and believe that we should find a way to get treated equally.
