美国应实施禁枪政策

美国今年发生了500多起大规模枪击事件--这已是美国连续第三年在10月之前达到这一阴郁的里程碑。

《每日邮报》网站还报道称，18日发生的几起枪击案使美国今年迄今为止发生的大规模枪击案总数达到502起。报道还显示，5年前，美国一年内发生的大规模枪击案总数还不到500起，美国枪支暴力事件的增加呈现出令人不寒而栗的趋势。基于这些可怕的数据，公民如何在充满暴力的环境中生存？在我看来，美国政府应该实施禁枪政策，保护公民的安全。

首先，禁枪可以有效保护社会安全。例如，澳大利亚自1996年实施禁枪政策以来，重大枪击案从16件下降到0件。因此，我深信沒有了槍枝，环境氛围会变得更好。

第二，禁槍可以有效防止纠纷升級。重大枪击案并不是禁枪的唯一理由，争吵才是枪击案发生的主要原因。在美国，一名男子仅仅因为炒鸡蛋不合他的口味，就杀死了自己的妻子和女儿。此外，类似的案例还有很多。因此，毫无疑问，不使用枪支可以大大减少因感情用事而杀人的情况。

总之，因为禁止使用枪支，可以创造一个和平的环境，减少因感情用事而杀人的比率。因此，实施禁枪政策对于稳定社会是必不可少的，刻不容缓。

The US Should Implement a Gun Ban Policy

The US has seen more than 500 mass shootings this year- marking the third year in a row the country has hit the somber milestone before October.

The Daily Mail website also reported that, on the 18th several shootings brought the total number of mass shootings in the US so far this year to 502. It also showed that five years ago, the total number of mass shootings in the US in a year was less than 500, and the increase in gun violence in the country has shown a chilling trend.

Based on the frightening data, how can citizens survive in an environment full of violence? From my perspective, the US government should impose a Gun Ban policy to protect citizen’s security.

First of all, banning guns can effectively protect social security. For instance, since 1996 Australia implemented the Gun Ban policy, major shootings dropped from sixteen pieces to zero pieces. Hence, I strongly believe that without the use of guns, the atmosphere of environment could become better.

Second, banning guns can effectively prevent disputes from escalating. Major shootings are not the only reason that guns should be banned, but the brawl is the main reason for the happen of shooting. In the US a man killed his wife and daughter simply because scrambled eggs didn’t suit his taste. In addition, there are many more cases like this happening. Therefore, no doubt without using guns can greatly decrease the killing of someone because of emotion.

To conclude, because of banning the use of guns can create a peaceful environment and decrease the rate of people killing others by emotion. So, implementing the Gun Ban policy is essential and without delay for stabling the society.
