The Case for International Gun Registration
The War against Guns has always been a priority not just in America but also in the world. Guns are one of the biggest polluters on the planet. It is not enough for one country to ban them or their high magazine but all countries must ban together to end all wars. What made the War on Drugs so deadly? Drug dealers have unlimited access to guns and weaponry, And they did so because of the jurisdiction of other countries. Drug dealers would hide in other countries to terrorize the countries' people to win power. Guns have always existed to overpower others. This is why there is a need to eliminate their effect on civilized societies. And when the internet came along, it strengthens the Black Market which sells drugs, guns, and all types of exotic things including humans. This must not exist any longer in society. Someone has to answer to this crime and we must and the world must break through this barrier to secure future generations. There cannot be any doubt about the consequences of leaving guns unchecked and balancing the power of the weaponry. There can be no peace and harmony while guns are freely given to anyone without a dignified purpose. Each year, we hear about the mass shootings in schools because of unauthorized access to guns, not only in America but around the world. We hear how school children are kidnapped due to some terrorism in foreign continent's nations such as Africa. If we are to win this then we got to make a mark for all people.

Recognizing Health Disparities
The reason minorities are at a higher risk of getting Covid-19 because it is believed that the disease can abate from another disease. The first symptoms can be similar to other ailments and doctors may overlook illnesses. Covid-19 has shown many disparities within the health system specifically for minorities. It is believed one of the reasons could be that they are being misdiagnosed by their health professionals. It is also believed that they are misinformed about the dangers of other symptoms that can increase their chances of getting the disease. High blood pressure, mental illness, or diabetes, etc. can incrementally increase one's chances of getting the disease as a pre-existing condition. There are ways that citizens can protect themselves and prevent further damage to the brain. It has been found that Covid-19 can linger in the brain causing other ailments if not treated in time. The government must understand that they cannot only treat the disease. They must also manage the vaccine effectiveness otherwise their healthcare will be overrun by the damage that Covid-19 has done to their citizens.

The Identification Process
As we know from psychology that boys and girls experience a phase where "boys desire to be around boys" and "girls desire to be around girls". They do this because they are trying to learn about themselves. They want to make friends and understand their place within the world. It is an identification process that happens naturally during childhood. They want to learn about their gender. Families have to create an atmosphere for this development as children learn to be their individual within their world. This type of play is normal in humanity. Even though animals reciprocate some instincts that cause them to choose to around their same gender. This mimicking behavior is what other living beings have shown throughout history but humans have been the most prevalent and effective in this evolution of the mind. Human beings learn first from copying those around them.

The Ongoing World War
Africa is the birthplace of nations and the world with the earliest civilizations starting there. And the first people coming from there. Africa has been regarded as a motherland. Rich with resources such as gold and diamonds and known for its contribution to the present economy. Its people rich with cultural identities with over 50 different languages and hundreds of tribes. Africa still is a centerpiece on the world's peace table. Peace in Africa and prosperity in Africa means a stable future for the world. We must realize that Africa harnessed the power of the world with its resources and can be an effective barter of trade in goods for many nations on multiple continents.
