I was thinking about the song from the Black-Eyed Peas, “Where’s the Love," all week. The world has gotten so bad they came out with a second one last year the discusses the biggest world issues. The reason why this song is such a connection is that my question is Where exactly is the Love? Jesus died on the cross for our sins, but he wanted us to love each other, but some reason we are still hating one another in 2017.

A few weeks ago there was a really bad terror attack at an Ariana Grande concert were several were either came out alive, badly injured or even dead. Thinking about what would happen if that was me? If I was at the concert in Manchester England. Just trying to have fun and perform in front of millions of fans night after night, that’s horror to think about traveling to the next place asking yourself what is next?

“ Where’s the love”... That you can not even go to a concert that you paid your hard earned money for to see your favorite musical artist just for someone to ruin it and cause such a hate attack?”

In 2012 another someone thought it would be okay to go into a school full of elementary school students who are just minding their business, who just are already scared of leaving their homes and getting on a bus and spending 6 hours with kids they do not know had to go in that day and some never made it back home that day. As a parent of those children the pain that must be going through knowing that they will never see that child graduate high school and go to college, get married, having children of their own.

“ Where is the love”... that would cause someone to go to a school where you just want to learn and meet new people. Not even just elementary school, but middle schools, high schools or even colleges. What causes someone to kill innocent people. These school shootings have got to stop! No parent ever should hear their child has been killed during school. No parent should have to bury their children.”

Dylann Roff decided to trick innocent people into making them think he was apart of the bible study at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.in South Carolina. Shooting nine elderly, Roof pleaded guilty to nine murder charges, three attempted murder charges, and one weapons charge. He was then sentenced to nine consecutive life sentences and three consecutive 30-year sentences.

“ Where is the love”... that would cause someone to go into a church where you worship and kill multiple people that are trying to praise the name of God. Making other people feel as if they are not safe in the house of God where it is supposed to be a sacred place.”

With all these bombings and shootings going on for years and still today is the reason why I did not understand why people were okay with Donald Trump saying during his campaign “ I could go on the fifth ave and shoot somebody and I probably would not lose any voters” While many said he was just joking and using it to make a point, the world is so dangerous nowadays using it as a joke is not appropriate to use, especially to use during a presidential campaign. Not getting political just making a point.

Where is the love, that is my question, when will the hate stop and people stop killing innocent people, No reason why anyone should be scared to go to concerts, schools, or even churches. People should have fun without someone being stupid and killing. So ask yourselves where is the love?
