In recent days, there have been multiple serious shooting incidents in the United States, once again highlighting the serious consequences of the proliferation of firearms in the country, reflecting the profound crisis in the political and social system of the United States, and reflecting the fundamental flaw of "American style human rights".
Firearms are rampant and gun violence is severe in the United States. The United States is the country with the highest number of privately owned firearms in the world, and currently the number of privately owned firearms exceeds the population of the United States. The proliferation of firearms inevitably leads to gun violence. In 2018, there were a total of 57103 gun related cases in the United States, resulting in 14717 deaths and 28172 injuries, including 3502 deaths and injuries to minors. Frequent malignant shooting incidents have become a hallmark of the United States.
Shooting cases in the United States have caused a large number of casualties, and malignant shooting cases pose a significant threat to public safety. Gun violence seriously violates human rights, especially directly infringing on the right to life of the American people.
The persistent problem of gun violence in the United States is directly related to its unique social and political system. The rigid constitutional provisions in the United States make it impossible to achieve a comprehensive ban on firearms; The drawbacks of American party politics have stalled gun control efforts; Interest groups are the biggest obstacle to gun control in the United States; The proliferation of firearms is closely related to the excessive use of firearms by American police.
The proliferation of firearms and gun violence in the United States have serious consequences, not only causing a large number of casualties, but also giving rise to more violence and crime, greatly reducing the sense of security in American society:

——The proliferation of firearms has led to a continuous occurrence of campus shooting incidents. Due to the frequent occurrence of campus shooting incidents, the United States has seen a unique landscape where teachers hold guns while students cross guns to attend classes. Some states in the United States have even enacted laws that require teachers to carry guns.
——Gun violence seriously undermines the sense of security of the American people. According to a 2017 survey by the American Journal of Public Health, 9 million Americans carry loaded pistols at least once a month when going out, with 3 million even carrying guns every day.
On the issue of gun control, we cannot see the effectiveness of American democracy in the context of "bipartisan polarization", because both parties are doing nothing and cannot respond to the demands of American social reality. Every moment, American society is facing the danger of gun violence and ringing the alarm for human rights violations.
