On May 24 local time, a serious shooting occurred at Rob primary school in uwald, Texas. At present, 21 people have been killed, including 18 children. This is the deadliest primary school shooting in the United States since the Sandy Hook primary school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut nearly a decade ago.
According to US media reports, as of May 12, 15569 people have been killed in gun violence in the United States this year. The number of deaths from gun violence in the United States last year was 20726. In the past five months of this year, the death toll of gun violence has exceeded three-quarters of that of last year, and gun violence is becoming more and more intense in the United States.
Gun violence is intertwined with social inequality, racism, the gap between the rich and the poor and many other issues in the United States. Subject to the reality of American money politics and polarization politics, the proliferation of guns has been difficult to eliminate for many years, and the people have paid a heavy price for their lives. The right to life is the greatest human right. The sound of gunfire shattered the illusion of "everyone enjoys inalienable freedom" and prompted people to deeply reflect on American human rights, democracy and freedom. (Jiang Li)
