Not Quite Right

We can have the right to legally own a gun, but we also get flustered hearing about mass shootings. Simply, not quite right.

Okay, so I can go to school not knowing if I will come home safely. Someone decided with their legal gun, to shoot up the school.

Not right at all.

Rights,

Should be correct because the definition of ‘right’ is “true or correct as a fact”

Some are not so right though.

I can get sexually assaulted and get pregnant but can’t abort the baby.

I do not have enough money to raise a child, but it is illegal for me to abort it.

When that same child gets older and goes to school, I will have to worry if my kid will have a safe day at school.

It all comes back to the same problem.

To keep a problem from persisting further, you must change something about it to fix it.

That does not seem to be happening lately.

And that, is not quite right.
