The issue that inspires this cartoon is that there is too much violence in schools today. The cartoonist did use grandparents in the cartoon to help with the image. In this cartoon the artist uses a little bit of exaggeration with the bullet proof vests to portray school violence. The cartoonists opinion on this event is that there is alot more violence in schools today then bak in he old days.As for me I definatly agree with the cartoonist, you always hear on the news about students bringing guns to school, and bomb scares and people killing other students.

To basically sumarize this cartoon it is about that there is way to much violence in schools today.

The issue that inspired that cartoon is that gas prices are to high and that were wasting are money. No one person portrayed in this cartoon. In this cartoon the cartoonist's opinion is that the gas prices should come down. I absolutely 100% agree way to many people pay to much money for gas it is out of control and we need to stop wasting money

To sum it all up this cartoon is basically saying that people are paying to much for gas and that money is being wasted.
