1989 Massecre at Tiananmen Square

Tiananmen Square, a public square in country of China. Located in the city of Beijing. Some people think the square is the biggest public square in China. Tiananmen Square is mainly known for the massacre that occurred with a group of young adults. A group of protestors went against the Chinese government. The event took place in the year 1989. Chinese government went to the square and shot unarmed civilians. The Chinese government wanted to stop the protesting. They chose to do this by shooting people in random bursts. 

The action that took place in 1989 was tragic. Innocent people killed by Chinese police officers. They were not old people or unemployed men. They were young students who wanted a better democracy for China. Kids that died for a cause that was not intended to cause harm or violence. The kids did not deserve to die that day. About a million Chinese students died. No one expected the event to take place. There were some people that got away, and there was some that became injured from bullets.

The troops stormed in and fired randomly. They shot, reloaded, and shot again. The shots were not structured. They aimed at the crowd and just pulled it. They kept shooting for more then a few minutes. Even when the people looked like they were leaving the premises, the police officers would keep shooting. They got tired of the protest. They should of sprayed water on the citizens, but they wanted blood or maybe they wanted to make strong conviction. The government did not have to shoot people. The people only wanted a fair democracy.

The square has always been an important area for travel. Cars and people would use the square each day to travel across Beijing, China. The square is in the center of Beijing. Japanese troops once occupied the area back in World War II. The Japanese troops manage to kill 20 million Chinese citizens while stationed at the square. The Japanese did not kill the people in 1989. That event was caused by China. However, it is safe to assume that the Tiananmen Square is bad luck. People always seem to get massacred there. People who visit the area should not spend more then a few minutes on its steps.
