I believe that our city should have less graffiti. My first reason is because in our school there
is a person that paints the walls. His name is Mark but gangs always write their name of
their gangs. The second reason is that there's a store that had a picture of a mom and son
but then the next day it was ruined. The person who painted it was depressed. I felt really
sad. The third reason is that when they write graffiti they have to paint it again and they're
wasting a lot of money. I would implement this change by giving every other children a wall
to draw wherever they have in their minds. In conclusion I believe there should be less
graffiti. The End.

2) You could sleep in one house and then another day in the other.
CON:

I believe I should get more pokemon cards. I think this because once they stop making them I will never have a favorite thing that I love and enjoy. I have lots of friends. They all have pokemon cards too. This affects the world because pokemon cards are really popular. Even my twenty year old brother loves pokemon cards, and he collects them. A world without pokemon cards is like a world without internet. Kids just like pokemon, and if they don’t get and they will never be happy for the rest of eternity.
