Many songs have been written against meaningless violence but one song is really incredible: Imagine from John Lennon. The song is very simple but it has a really deep message. It learns us that you never can judge someone for his skin colour, religion, ... What's very said is that John Lennon was a victim of meaningless violence. He was murder on 8 December at 10:50 a.m. by Mark David Chapman. He was killed at the front door from his house in New york. What I also find incredible of the song is that the music is very simple so the text is very clear. John Lennon is dead but his fight against meaningless violence is still going on. When you listen to the song you feel the power of John Lennon. So we hoop you find also the power to fight against violence.
Every day when you open the newspaper,you see cases of meaningless violence. Horrible! Many people think that 's not going to happen with them our their family. Wrong! Everyone knows someone who has been attackted our teased. Most of the people think that, if their keep their mouth all that will stop. No! You have to talk about it. Tell all the people what horrible things Hans Van Themsche, the murders of Joe Van Holsbeek and many other did and tell them to fight against meaningless violence. These people had to die for someone else its anger but they're leave us a very important message: never asses someone for his skin colour, his religion, ... Just try to live in peace!

Read this poem and think about the victims of meaningless violence.
Who are you? Who are you to destroy our world Who are you to give so much hurt Who are you to kill and let die Who are you to believe in destruction Who are you to bring confusion Who are you to be fulfilled with hate Who are you to not being straight
Are you senseless for the wrong reason ? Are you a believer in woman and man
Are you?
Are you human
Tell me Who are you?
For all the people whom do have with meaningless violence
For all those people whom do have with meaningless violence I cry Cry for the wounded and those who die The clouds absorb my tears while rain sprinkle their soul For you I shall be courageous and try to make you whole For you those people I spread my arms and comfort you with love I stare to heaven and I pray to God above
Please God - please embrace our world Stop the killing and the hurt Shower your love and sprinkle their sorrow Without that nobody couldnt live
