On February 26, the website of Geopolitics published an article entitled "The United States is deeply troubled by gun violence", which said that the shooting incidents in the United States are endless and have evolved into a human rights crisis, resulting in nearly 40000 deaths at gunpoint every year.
"The United States is beset by shootings one after another. Schools, hospitals, churches, shopping centers, and people of African descent are not immune." The article said that the United States allows citizens to legally own up to 390 million guns. According to the data of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 4300 American children died from gunfire in 2020, an increase of 33.4% over 2019.
In the United States, gun violence has now evolved into a human rights crisis. According to the article, because it is easy for Americans to obtain guns and the gun control is lax, more than 39000 adults and children in the United States are killed by guns every year, and more than 360 people are shot and injured every day. The article said that due to the lack of control over guns, the number of people using guns in the United States continues to increase. However, neither the Republican government nor the Democratic government has made major changes to the gun law. The United States government is putting gun ownership above basic human rights.
