Following what happened yesterday at Marjory Stoneman Douglas School, in the city of Parkland, in the state of Florida, United States.
On this day I bring you an analysis of a situation that is worrisome. We the Spanish-speaking ones ask ourselves the following question: BECAUSE THE UNITED STATES SELLS FIREARMS WITHOUT A STRICT CONTROL?
If we review the past, we realize that since the time of the Wild West, where the cowboys carried weapons for the defense of their lands and their families of the outlaws, this issue is something cultural in this country. It is no secret to anyone that in some states of the country, especially on the western side, anyone can, not only carry a firearm, but also buy it legally.
This is because it is part of their culture, something rooted in everyone who is born and lives in this country. Either with the intention of protecting their families and property, as in the Far West, or to cause harm to their neighbors. Nobody can know the intentions that are in the conscience of a simple boy or girl who requests the purchase of this artifact. And at the same time it is known that there are groups, clubs, lodges, etc., that are totally involved in the political sphere of the country, which in one way or another finance congressmen, parliamentarians and local authorities and of course they influence the taking of decisions regarding the laws that restrict the purchase and carrying of weapons.
However, we are simple observers of this situation. Since last year there have been 18 attacks in American schools. And we see that no measures are taken or changes are made to stop these events. But it lies, mainly, in the power that these armed groups have in influential positions within the political sphere. That if the law changes were approved in the States involved, these same groups would be affected by such legal reforms.
It is sad to see both scenarios, both the child who can not feel safe in his school, as the child aggressor. How life can change families on both sides (so to speak). A loved one that is no longer there, the physical absence of a piece of the heart of the members of a family group and the temporary absence and destruction of a life behind bars, which could be, a citizen who brought great value to the family environment and the society. Now destined to public embarrassment and shame
We only have to ask GOD to give strength to all the relatives involved in the events. Because nobody is secret the great pain that represents the loss of a family member in these circumstances. Because if not all of us have lived, most of us have lost a family member due to illness or because the time of his call with the Lord has come. And we have experienced the pain it causes.
Until next post my dear friends of STEEMIT.
First, the parkland attack was not some 18 year old kid with an AR. Anytime you see this many dead it was a sponsored attack. Especially with such a high death count. It is not like a video game to use an actual firearm. We see regularly where a police office, someone with thousands of shots fire under their belt, miss at point blank range with an entire magazine. If you look into the details you find that the security officers were called off campus and when police arrive they did not immediately enter the building to defend the children. This event stinks to high heaven and it is a political agenda. I live in an area where the guns out number the people at least 5:1. We never have an issue outside an occasional domestic murder. This was a political event driven to disarm the american public. The right to self defense for Law abiding citizens is the only constitutional right that matters because without it, all other rights can easily be taken away. 'Hence why you are using steemit'??? The other platforms are taking away freedom of speech. Remember that these events are always sponsored and do not assume that what is on the surface is the truth. There are 100 facts that make this event an obvious "job". Gun control does nothing! Look at Chicago. Also, the cat is already out of the bag, there are far too many guns out there in the U.S. to keep them out of the hands of those that wish to do harm. The only people that would be punished are those that want to keep firearms to protect family, friends and property. Evil will never rest and neither should we. By creating these shooting events, those that pull the strings are pitting the nation against each other so that we are not focused on them and their criminal agendas.
Hi, I really wrote this because it was a terrible event. At least it shocks me because I have children of school age and I am terrified to imagine this happening. I started reading a bit of this news. And I realized that the problem is deeper than just disarming the population, since this goes back a long time ago.
The data of the news I took from the source or link that is in my post.
If you see the following Post, I was surprised by the senator's response. However, I think I can not know more than you, that you see everything in the front row. And you will have lived it for a long time. Knowing better than me, the background of what for us could be solved simply and suddenly you are right. Only the decent population of the country could be disarmed.
And to finish, I'm in STEEMIT because I like it. And for what you are in it, only you know it. I do not think attacking us will achieve something positive. I do not believe in that kind of attitude. Anyway, thank you for your comment. Regards!
I apologize if my comment came off as an attack.. that was not the intention. I only feel until people realize what is actually happening, rather than the window dressing that is presented to us, than incorrect decisions will be supported. Thank you for the content and reply!
