The cycle of gun violence affects more than the people involved in an incident by an innocent person having PTSD or scared that their life could get taken. In the story it stated "Romeo made a story apologizing to Lashell's family". This explains that it didn't only affect Lashell, but also his family and his friends. This proves that gun violence more than the people involved.

Gun violence affects a lot of people like kids, adults, and old people gun violence causes a lot of trauma everywhere. Because a lot of people are scared of guns and they are so loud they can cause your ear drums to burst. And innocent people could get hurt around them causing them to either die or get hurt in the crossfire. Gun violence happens a lot around the world and it could to you too if you're not careful. Gun violence does not solve problems at all. In the story is says "Romeo made a story to Lashell's family and "as long as KDK stayed on their side of King Street they were safe KDG would not harm them in any way" Which means romeo made a promise

The cycle of gang violence pressures T.J into making decisions by making T.J protect his brother while he's in jail from the rival gang. It also makes him rethink his decisions because he has a football scholarship that he doesn't want to loose. T.J now has to look out for his brother while also trying to keep his football scholarship in high school. T.J is pressured to loose his brother or his scholarship at school. He doesn't want to loose his scholarship but also doesn't want to loose his brother.
