Last Saturday, there were bombings in New Jersey and New York. The first one was near a charity race on the Jersey Shore. The second one was almost 12 hours later in front of 131 West 23rd Street in Chelsea. A couple hours later, a third device was found on West 27th Street between Avenue of the Americas and Seventh Avenue. The next morning, a backpack containing five explosion devices was found on top of a trash can in a train station in Elizabeth, New Jersey. This backpack was only half a mile away from Ahmad Khan Rahami's living area. Ahmad Khan Rahami was arrested last week for having some kind of connection to the bombings. Mr. Rahami was originally from Afghanistan, but is now a U.S. citizen and has previously faced jail time. He was found asleep in a doorway of a bar when the police were called. He fought back and was shot several times. He was charge included five counts of attempted murder of a law enforcement officer, and also two other counts.
I think that it is terrible how bombings are stilling happening. I feel that our society should have a better security to where things like this don't happen as often as they are. I am glad that the police found a connection to the source of the bombing, however there could and is most likely more people involved. I hope that in the future people are more careful and safe to where events such as this one don't happen so often.

I agree with what you said, for bombings are completely unorthodox and ridiculous. I feel like the government is just lacking honestly, and it pisses me, and maybe others, off and I would love to do something, but I don't know what to do. -Alex Travell
ReplyDeletei agree that we need to take more control over our countries security so we can avoid being in these situations where innocent people's lives are threatened.
