Gun-Related Violence – Outcome of Anti-Popular Social System

Recently, the U.S. president Biden said in his statement that the gun-related violence is now endemic and the U.S. society is getting divided by the gun-related violence.

It can be said as a confession of the true picture of the U.S., the universally-accepted kingdom of gun-related crime.

According to the data available, the number of guns confiscated at its domestic airports is at all-time record, reaching 6 542 and more than 330 people were shot dead or wounded at schools.

In this year alone, there was a spate of gun-related crime of all hues in California, New Mexico, Louisiana, South Carolina  and other states.

Hence, it became a commonplace that people are shot dead in such peaceful public places as streets, shops and schools, which are far away from the battlefields. And people feel that it is a mercy if they do not fall victim to a volley of bullets. This is the picture of the U.S. society today.

This is an unavoidable outcome as the all sorts of gun-related crimes are becoming ubiquitous in the U.S. where the law of jungle prevails and gun possession by individuals are guaranteed by law.

The problem is that, though numerus people are shedding blood by gunshots at the streets and school compounds, others are hell-bent on manufacturing and selling of lethal weapons.

Not a few arms manufacturers of the U.S. are reaping a colossal  of  pecuniary profits, at a boom time of gun-related crimes.

The U.S. administration is now clamoring for “gun control” and “reformation of gun law” while leaving intact such patrons and sponsors of murder which vie for the production of lethal tools with an excuse that the gun possession by individuals is an inalienable “right” of the citizen. This can’t but be a mockery of the working people as well as an act of deceiving them.

This clearly corroborates that the U.S. society system is an anti-popular one which gives priority to the pecuniary profits through the sales of guns over the protection of people’s safety.

Concerning the gun-related violence, the malignant tumor of the U.S. society, the international community is now deploring that the U.S.-touted democracy indeed ignores the life of people and the freedom advocated by the U.S. is really the one which allows the random shooting.  This is quite natural.

Under the anti-popular social system where 99% of people are being held at gunpoint to satisfy the cupidity of a handful 1% of plutocrats, the U.S. would never evade from such an incurable nightmare as gun-related crime.
