Water Far in the ocean, I was on a small boat with four people to go diving. Jamie, Bob, Matt, and Mike were there to support me, but they didn’t want to go in the water. Before I dived in the water, Matt had given me a pocket knife for defence, but I figured it wouldn’t work, considering there were gigantic creatures in the ocean. I dived into the water, but my heart was pounding, and then, I saw a large grey streak dashing by. Then it came back, and the closer it got to me, the faster I swam…

To make matters even worse, everybody was anxious to get on to the boat. When our boat finally arrived, we put our life…

Laws shouldn’t change to allow teachers to be armed with weapons. The first of many reasons is because students could feel unsafe, or fearful with a gun being near them. Maybe even because they feel the teacher dislikes them that the person would snap one day, and do something that should never transpire.
