The Pakistani Taliban on the Bacha Khan University campus near Peshawar has suddenly laid one the if the nastiest of America withdrawals from Afghanistan, 25 miles west.

My opinion on this is that the Taliban has take a lot of the U.S. money, even though the US is in trillions of dollars in debt, and we need to stop it.

This affects the world because if Afghanistan keeps on taking money soon all the country’s will start taking money from the US.

Everyone knows of the Powerball and how you can win over millions of dollars. The latest one was the most the Powerball has every been. The Powerball was 1.5 billion dollars and some say you can be as rich as Donald Trump. People blows hundreds of dollars on a Powerball ticket and I would say it’s not worth it.

This doesn’t affect me at all because I’m not going to waste my money on a lottery ticket.

This does affect the world because the U.S. is in thrillions of dollars in dept and we’re giving people millions of dollars.

  President Obama actions on guns today that it’s less restricted than it needs to be. Obama has made some tweaks so that they make the guns more restricted. The president said that most of the killings are from mental health people. Obama now wants it to be way harder to get a gun.

 This article does affect me in every way because when I get older I’m going to have a gun. In my opinion everyone should have a weapon to save themselves from the crazy.

  This event does and doesn’t affect the world because if this law goes through it’s goign to be hard to get a gun because of all the work you have to go through, but I think there will be a smaller chance of shootings.

U.S. authorities look for militant links to shooters in California mass slaying

  This Thursday in California at a holiday party with 14 people died and many wounded. Syned and Tashfeen were killed in a shootout with the police. This has been reported to be the deadliest gun violence in the U.S.

The article does affect me and doesn’t because first off I don’t live in a big city, but you never know it could happen. It does affect me because what if I at a party or something like a party and there was a shooting and I died.

The event that occurred on Thursday doesn’t affect America that much because stuff like this happens a lot.
