     As a foreigner, I don' t know the situation in the US well.Seeing all kinds of recent shooting incidents,

I think it should be controlled more strictly than now.Somebody said that the person who has it in mind

to kill another can do it without a gun, so the causes of murders are not guns but the trend of despising

(蔑视) life in the US.And they also insist that there is no clear evidence that the increasing number of

murders is connected with possession of guns, so the personal rights should not be restricted by the

reason that there is not enough evidence.

     Several months ago, I agreed with that partly.But as we know, the private groups like NRA have

used the public opinion and persuaded the government to protect their profit.Other weapons such as

knives, razors, bats are made for their own usage.But guns are made for only one reason-to kill

someone.Of course, there are people who have guns to protect themselves from the criminals.But crime

 is getting more cruel and severe nowadays, so actually even if someone has a gun, it is impossible to

guard himself completely.

     As a substitute, I think, if the possession of guns is controlled more strictly, people can live safer lives

than now.There are other reasons to oppose the gun control (e.g.the possession of guns is historical

inheritance (继承)and represents that people's resistance will beagainst tyrannical (专制的)government),

but none of them can justify and explain today's serious situation in the US.
