Gun Culture in USA

We all are aware of the ‘Gun Culture’ in USA. Well, some say its completely normal to carry a gun in USA by an adult citizen. Also some says its not. I have no idea what really Americans would like to have, basically wanted to say What kind of opinion they will be having regarding it. We all know how dangerous a Gun can be, but I don’t know why still its ‘OKAY’ to have or to carry a firearm or a gun in USA. Gun is one of the most dangerous weapon for the mankind can ever had.

Well, on 24th May 2022 a massive killing took place in Texas in a School, where so many teachers, students, so many innocent people lost their lives. Do you think a Gun is a Toy or a safe thing to have, well no its not! There are so many incidents that took place in USA just because of a gun.

As we have seen that in Texas, a mass killing took place in Robb Elementary School, a person suddenly started shooting due to which many of the students along with the teachers passed away. Many innocent people lost their lives. Well, most of us know that in USA it is almost OKAY to carry or have a firearm, we know how dangerous a gun or a firearm is for the mankind. Also, Buying and Selling of any firearm are okay in USA. There are so many incidents took place in USA, where these kinds of shooting incidents took place in schools, public places etc. After, so many shooting incidents, isn’t it a time to change these kind of laws which allows firearms as okay, well I believed it’s a time to change for the betterment. USA Government must make changes in the Gun laws of USA and must issue a complete ban on firearms.

As per a survey by The Small Arms Survey has noted that U.S. civilians alone account for 393 million (about 46 percent) of the worldwide total of civilian held firearms. This amounts to “120.5 firearms for every 100 residents.”
Just imagine a place like America where people from all over the world come to settle or to live their livelihood or for their studies is having almost 46 percent of the people are carrying firearms, isn’t it dangerous?
Also, most of the household is having around 1 or 2 firearms at present in USA.
In USA even Firearms are sold openly for which more and more people are able to buy or to easily get access to it.
Well, USA’s Gun Laws are the most debated topic from around the world, isn’t it a time to change these Gun Laws and to add more and strict restrictions towards them?
Well also, US president Joe Biden took to the podium in the White House briefing room and addressed the nation in the aftermath of the Uvalde school shooting in Texas, he also urged the citizens to ‘stand up to the’ powerful pro-gun lobby.
The US president also added that it is the time to act.
Well, I really appreciate it, if US President Joe Biden really act upon it and make a better resolution regarding this issue as soon as possible.
It’s a duty of every global citizen to make change around the world for its betterment, that is why Gun Laws in US must be regulated as well by the US Government. The world loves US and as its a developed country, it is also a inspiration for the World as well so that they can also become a developed nation like USA, that is why for the people, for the world there must be some best resolutions regarding this issue, not only in USA but in all the countries where any sort of weapons or firearms are legal because of which mass killings takes place. We all must ensure the safety of each and every global citizen.
At last I would like to add that “A CHANGE FOR THE GOOD IS ALWAYS A GREAT OPTION, WHICH PROMOTES PEACE AND LOVE”
We all must try to STOP THE GUN CULTURE as soon as possible Worldwide.

Easy there. It is a gun culture that rid the country of England as overlords (not Satyagrah, not brown sahibs in charge, but guns carried by ordinary people). It is a gun culture that rubbished the notion of a master (German) race during WWII. It is a gun culture that tamed a wild nation into a richest one in 200 years without colonialism. It is the Portuguese and English gun culture that allowed them to walk into India and rule while corrupting the entire culture, and bleeding us dry. So we did not have a gun culture. If we had one, we would kill each other (something Gandhi knew, and therefore advocated non-violence). Don't judge the entire gun culture.
