Violent issues

They say in relationship problems can be solved by words. However, in many cases it is never solved the proper and safe way. Taking the recent case of a women being shot by her boyfriend twice due to a heated argument of jealousy, it makes us wonder if violence is the only way to solve an issue be it a big or small issue. It is a proven fact that every violent act will cause an innocent bystander to get hurt at the same time. It was shown when the brother of victim also suffered injuries due to gunpowder from the shot. What could be the cause of these actions? Some say that it is merely human first reaction. Others blame it on the influence of media. Is it really all that or just the mind of the human itself? Many say that the mind is trained by your surroundings and the teachings of the elderly. So, as a policeman, is it right or excusable for the suspect to make use of his weapon in such personal matter? As a human being, is it right to use death as an excuse to run away from your mistakes? I believe as humans with a mind, we should be able to think twice before making a decision no matter how rational or irrational. It is true that they say never “Cry over spilled milk,” but, you also have to choice of making sure that milk doesn’t get spilt.
