LETTER: TV shows too much violence

Dear Editor,

I am writing about violence, war and cruelty in general. I feel like there’s too much violence in the world today, not only in real life but on TV, too.

People watch movies with blood, gore and guns all the time. We also go to war for reasons that are over and done with, like the terrorist attack. Innocent people have been killed in Afghanistan because of someone else’s wrong. It’s sad things like this happen.

You can never watch the news without hearing that someone has murdered so-and-so, or so-and-so was kidnapped last night. I wish we were better people here in the United States. Shamae Budd 5th Grade, Edith Bowen
