[Faith-talk] U.S Gun Culture

[Mostafa Almahdy]

At least 25 people were shot at a concert in Arkansas early Saturday
morning and others injured as they tried to escape, police said. This
is the second fatal shooting in less than 24 hours. On Friday, a
disgruntled former employee went in and began to shoot   at Bronx
Lebanon hospital in New York. Hmm, are we suppose to be just numb to
such incidents? People do not finish mourning an incident until they
are instantly shocked with another one. Americans have abused and
violated the spirit of Constitution second amendment. The national
rifle association, also known as NRA has dominated congress and
blocked any gun regulation bills. It surely wants to keep its greed
grow. I genuinely would rather not disparage my passport by labeling
the U.S visa on it. It is truly a shame to be anything like American.
How on earth they refuse to restrict guns and keep them in sickly
demented hands for the sake of their sempiternally terrestrial gain?
This is America folks, a country which basis its foundation on
capitalistic tenets. It is a major threat for me to reside there. I
could be shot at a store, a theatre, a campus, a social club, a
worship centre and even a hospital. There are no restrictions on where
could people go with their guns. They could be anywhere. Is that
natural? I am seriously asking, is that natural? This is what pride
does to the mind. It makes someone stubbornly arrogant to see and
respectfully admit his shortcomings. Despite these consecutively
incessant mass shootings, nothing will change as for gun laws and who
is eligible to bear arms. It is most likely that we are going to hear
about similar incidents taking place in some public gallery in the
near future. Thank you for reading, Mostafa
