According to the Los Angeles Times, on July 11, local time, a circular shooting occurred in southern convenience stores in California, USA, which has caused two deaths and three injuries. On the same day, the US President Biden passed the cross -party gun control bill in the White House. The sound of gunfire reappeared, which once again explained that the American gun violence was difficult to solve.
The sound of gunfire is constantly
The large -scale shooting of Bafafaro supermarkets, the school shooting of the campus campus in Evadi, Texas, and the independent day shooting of Hai Laipa City, Illinois ... The sound of gunfire sounds one after another. Essence As the National Public Radio of the United States said that for decades, large -scale shooting has not stopped signs of stopping, and the work of preventing gun violence may never be completed. In fact, this is more difficult than ever.
According to data from the websites of "Guns Violent Files" of non -profit organizations, by early July this year, at least 330 large -scale shooting incidents occurred in the United States. The US gun violence prevention organization "bring gun safety to each town" reported in 2020 that an average of more than 110 Americans died in the muzzle per day. More than 2,000 children and adolescents died of gun killing, and the violence of guns became the main reason for the death of American children and adolescents.
"Planning to escape" "no longer go to local grocery stores", "is considering leaving this country", "afraid of sending children to school" ... A latest survey of the United States CNN (CNN) shows that in the surging shooting incident Under the influence, Americans' fear and anxiety are increasing day by day, and "the struggle with large -scale shootings has changed the way of Americans." Interviewee Irene Rome said she is very afraid of sending children to school, "there is no sense of security because you know that you can do too little."
The concept is deep
There are complex factors behind the violence of the United States to run out of control, and the ingrained and fixed -rooted gun violence culture is one of the important reasons. Since the founding of the United States, the violence culture of firearms has been deeply rooted in US politics, culture, and laws, and has become a part of almost impossible to change in the national political process of the United States.
David Shangen, a scholar of the University of Vicker Forest in the United States, told VOX: "The uniqueness of the United States is that civilians have always had a wide range of gun rights, and the government does not claim to have monopoly rights against guns." Robert Sipztidz, a Professor of Terrams, said that in history, American gun culture is "related to the tradition of hunting and border militia"; now the gun culture has become a manifestation of American political concepts, that is, guns are freedom, personality, etc. expression.
Under such a gun -holding culture, Americans's gun rate is topped in the world. A Swiss research project "Small Weapon Survey" estimates that about 390 million guns in the United States were circulating in 2018, that is, about 120.5 firearms per 100 residents, and the number of guns in the United States is much higher than any other country. According to VOX reports, due to the influence of the new crown pneumonia, the rate of guns in the United States may have risen.
It is also under such a firearms that the Federal Supreme Court has recently announced a ruling that the New York State has recently announced a law that restricts the people's hidden guns in New York State. American legal analysts pointed out that the ruling of the Supreme Court may restrict the ability of the state and local governments to regulate guns, which will make the United States more difficult to deal with the problem of guns. VOX said, "The pistol that caused the murder of the United States may spread on many American streets."
The effect of the bill is limited
As the United States continuously occurred in the United States, and the sound of shot control rose again, Bayeng signed a community security bill in the White House on June 25. According to the Congress Mountain Daily, on July 11, local time, Bayeng promoted the achievements of the cross -party gun control bill during the celebration of the White House, calling it "the real progress after many years of doing nothing." However, the so -called "major breakthrough" cross -party gun control bill is actually just a "compromise discount version".
Critics believe that after a few weeks of closed -door bargaining, the key propositions of the gun control school have not been reflected in this bill. This bill neither stipulates that the offensive weapons and high -capacity magazines are required, nor do it require a general strengthening of the background review of the buyer, and it has not touched the issue of the flood of the American folk guns. According to the Congress Mountain Daily, in the celebration of the White House, the father of a shooting of a shooting case interrupted Biden, and he got up from the audience's seat and shouted angrily: "You must do more!" The father was in In an interview with the CNN, the gun management and control bill of the United States is far from enough. There should be more severe measures in the legislation. "This is only part of the gun control process. event".
Many gun control advocates also said that it is too early to declare victory. VOX commented on this that the cross -party gun control bill is relatively limited. It does not prohibit any type of weapons, and only encourages states to formulate new measures to limit guns. The person in charge of the charitable organization "gun sound to the United States" Igor Wallsky told CNN: "There is nothing worth celebrating here. This is just the minimum thing that Congress should do.
