Rihanna and Cardi B pay tribute to murdered teen

What I read

According to "Rihanna and Cardi B pay tribute to murdered teen" (2018) by BBC, Rihanna and Cardi B have paid tribute to Lesandro Junior Guzman-Feliz, a 15-year-old teen who was murdered in the Bronx, New York, last week. He was attacked with a machete. Cardi B, who's from the Bronx, donated $8000 to the victim's family. Cardi later uploaded a video of Leandra thanking her for the donation, and called for others to visit Lesandro's GoFundMe page. In just three days, over 6,000 people have donated to the account and raised almost $150,000. Rihanna also brought attention to the murder when she shared a picture of the teen on her Instagram on Sunday.

My response 

After I read "Rihanna and Cardi B pay tribute to murdered teen" (2018) from BBC, this news make me think that there are more and more murderer nowadays, and they keep commit a crime every single day. That's why I've got an idea in my mind, why there're still have many criminal although we have a law and police.

I think that the reason why people commit a crime is they are ignorant. So we can give them an education about law and other reason why we shouldn't commit a crime to make our city safe.

  1. In my point of view, The government should change the law to heavier penalty. Today, many crimes cause by people don't scare the penalty much.

    1. I'm not sure that this works. In fact, it might make the problem worse. In Thailand, for example, there was a lot of discussion recently about the death penalty when a horrible murderer was executed by the rule of law. The Thai prime minister said this "teaches a lesson," but the lesson it teaches is that violence, even killing, is a good solution to problems, and this is what the murder statistics show: countries that use the death penalty have higher murder rates than countries that do not have this extreme penalty. I think it might be better to teach people that violence is not a good solution to problems.
