Murder of Jim Pouillon

Okay kiddo, so there was a man named Jim Pouillon who lived in a town where people were arguing about something called abortion. Abortion is when a woman decides she doesn't want to have a baby inside her anymore and goes to a doctor to have it removed. Some people think that this is okay, while other people think it's very wrong.

Now, Jim Pouillon was someone who thought that abortion was very wrong. He liked to stand outside of a building where women could go to get abortions and hold up signs trying to convince them not to do it. He thought that babies inside a woman's tummy were just like babies outside of a woman's tummy, and that we shouldn't hurt them.

One day, while Jim was holding up his sign outside of the building, a man came up to him with a gun and shot him. The man who did it was very upset about the abortion argument, and thought that shooting Jim would help his side.

But no matter what side you're on about abortion, it's always wrong to hurt someone else because you disagree with them. Jim was just trying to share his ideas peacefully, and he didn't deserve to be hurt for it. It's important for everyone to respect each other's opinions, even if we don't always agree with them.
