Opening Activity

In the Jonesboro shooting, four students and one teacher were killed along with ten other students injured by two teenage boys, Mitchell Johnson(13) and Andew Golden(11) who also attended the middle school. My assumtion about why the two students commited the massacre is that they were troubled students with troubled home lives. They had been around guns so often and had easy access to them that this idea of theirs was so easy to commit. The angle I would go at for this story would be talking to the boys and getting their reasons for why they did what they did. I would also ask the two boys' parents if they saw any red flags in their sons behavior and if they had caught the signs, then I would ask if they thought the trajegdy could have been prevented.
