Time to end epidemic of gun violence in the US

NRA & guns in the US: Time to end epidemic of gun violence in the US. 

Every single Republican politician including former US President Donald Trump are all against gun control policy. They all receive money from NRA (National Rife Association) as they are pro gun (& not for gun safety). Under Trump presidency, there has been many gun shootings.

From 2017 Las Vegas shooting to 2018 Parkland, Florida shooting to 2019 El Paso shooting. The list goes on. Given both GOP & Trump believe the nonsense philosophy that “Guns don’t kill people. People kill people.” Receiving funding from NRA.

Every time when Republican politician say “thoughts and prayers”, they don’t want to do anything to put a stop to mass shooting. Mass gun shooting. I know in US constitution which second amendment says “the right to bear arms”. Except it doesn’t really say the right to “endanger lives”.

So America should be not be afraid to do something to prevent anymore of gun incidents by having gun control laws. It’s not about “taking away” guns, it is about safety. That’s why Trump had the backing from NRA. youtu.be 

No wonder Barack Obama had found frustrating that he was not able to do anything regarding gun control when he was the US President & that he wanted to bring measures to prevent gun violence & tragedies. youtu.be youtu.be youtu.be youtu.be youtu.be youtu.be 

Even gun incidents had happened on every US President long before Trump & now under Biden. No wonder we see the US as Wild West in cowboy and western films. It’s time the country has a gun control laws. Plus it’s now three years since the March For Our Lives (MFOL) demonstration. Led by school students including victims of Stoneman Douglas High School, Parkland, Florida to protest against gun violence.

Donald Trump (then US President) even had ridiculously suggested that arming teachers with guns should prevent gun shootings (particular in schools). Worst of all, Trump repealed Obama-era gun checks for people with mental health problems. You see. This is why the president was out of touch and had no empathy. google.co.uk google.co.uk google.co.uk google.co.uk No wonder he didn’t had the interest to stop any avoidable tragedies & incidents relating to gun violence & that he received the money from NRA. No wonder I am glad that Trump didn’t win for his second term. 

I understand that the topic about guns in America is difficult and complicated topic. However, it’s common sense to do something by putting a stop to it. It should never be divisive subject to talk about gun reform in the United States of America.

Gun checks and particularly universal background checks are the way to regulate guns. That is how it should be. Gun regulation. That’s gun control. Preventing more of gun incidents in the US. That’s why Joe Biden & Democrats are for Gun Control & the safety of American people. Plus today, The President outlined that he want to deal with the epidemic of gun violence in America during his speech. youtu.be youtu.be Since it is indeed as “international embarrassment” as President Biden is right to say. google.co.uk 

And on top of it, if you compare the US to any country, you would find that countries like Canada, Australia, New Zealand & European countries like Germany, France, the UK and Spain have toughest laws by having a strict gun restrictions. That’s how gun control works. Stricter gun measures. Not having big gun incidents in the United States. 

Strictly, gun controls works in many countries & that is how there is no daily mass gun shooting like America does & that there aren’t any of crazy gun fanatics. 

The two recent gun incidents in Atlanta, Georgia & Colorado shows it is really got to stop. Gun violence. Enough is enough. Thoughts and prayers will not win prevent gun incidents. What will prevent gun incidents is politicians in the US Congress to finally pass a legislation in the House & the Senate for the president to sign it into the law. I know Democrats are for gun control. As for Republicans, they are totally against it? Why? They received from the NRA as I mentioned in my first paragraph. So yeah, President Biden should ignore NRA because they do not care. They do not care if someone have died due to gun given gun shooting is one of the cause of death in USA. All they talk is “the right to bear arms”. Where in the American constitution say that it is okay to endanger any innocent person’s lives with arms (guns)? Gun is a weapon. Dangerous weapon. Not a tool. Instead of making lies with the ludicrous narrative “they gonna take your guns”, they should in favour for gun reform. But they are not for that so that is why they will continue to behave the rubbish philosophy “Guns do not kill people”. 

Here is the comparison between two former US Presidents: Barack Obama and Donald Trump & how they handled the situation, relating to gun violence. Obama tried so hard to bring gun control measures when he was the president. While for Trump, he didn’t care about it. youtu.be 

So yes, there should definitely be gun control & gun control measures in America.
