The Shot Felt Around The World
BEEP BEEP BEEP! My alarm clock stroke 7 A.M. I hit the snooze button just like I always do. UGGGHHHH I screech as I crawl out of bed. I walk to the living room and turn on the news. I walked to the kitchen to brew my daily coffee. As i’m making my coffee, I hear the reporter say, “Currently I am at Dealey Plaza and the weather is beautiful.

It doesn’t make sense to me or anybody else.
BANG! BANG BANG! The sound of the gun is stuck in my mind. It’s a recurring nightmare. It hurts to think about this. I haven’t left my house since the incident happened. I flip on the news and there it is again. The man that killed President Kennedy, Lee Harvey Oswald, was gunned down and killed by a man named Jack Ruby. Jack Ruby ran in and shot him down. Just like that, another man was murdered. Now Jack Ruby is going to prison. He should’ve just let Oswald be, because if the case went through they would’ve killed him in prison.
