On October 27, 2018, 11 people were killed and 6 wounded（including four police officers）in a shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

According to detailed reports, a man with an automatic rifle and three pistols broke into a synagogue called The Tree of Life in Pittsburgh at 10 a.m. on the 27th and left after shooting indiscriminately. During the incident, he has exchanged fire with the police officers and shouted, "all Jews are going to die." Later, under the siege of the special forces, he has been shot for many times and was arrested. It is a suspected hate crime, and the suspect is a 46-year-old white man with obvious anti-Semitic tendency.

After the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, U.S. President Trump responded with a twitter at the first time: "The incident in Pittsburgh was much more serious than originally thought. I just called the mayor of Pittsburgh and the governor of Pennsylvania and told them that the federal government will always be with them.” Trump also condemned the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting as “an evil mass murder”, and insisted we must fight against anti-Semitism wherever and wherever it arises, and strength the death penalty law to prevent gun crimes at the same time.

In the United States, racial tensions and wealth gap are becoming more and more serious. This shooting incident is just one of tragedies result from the problems. American citizens have the right to use guns freely, which also facilitates many such crimes.

For a long time, shootings can't be stopped despite repeated bans, bringing serious consequences and heavy costs—many innocent victims suffered seriously, and countless families have received heavy grief. Under such circumstances, we should pay more attention to the safety of ourselves and our families. In order to avoid the threat of shootings, more and more people have turned to bulletproof equipment.
