What can we do in the face of high school shootings?

Let us continue to focus our attention on shootings in high school in the United States. On March 20th, a shooting incident occurred in a high school in Maryland, USA. The shooting caused two students to be wounded. The gunman was injured in a confrontation with the police and was sent to the hospital where he died. The successive shooting incidents on US high school campuses caused a broader and deeper reflection on gun violence in the U.S. community, and the U.S. public’s call for gun control and even guns have become increasingly strong. Among them, the families of surviving students and surviving students demanded that the government strictly control the issue of firearms. In particular, it was hoped that their legislators could keep the guns away from school on the one hand through the law, and on the other hand, they could completely block all harmful semi-automatic rifles. But it is absurd that in Florida where the tragedy took place, local politicians passed an extremely a...

Meanwhile, Trump is moving in on the video game world.

On March 9, a blogger, Althouse wrote an article called Meanwhile, Trump is moving in on the video game world. In this article, the author said she was trying to read a report about our president Trump drawing his opinion on video game and violence, but just as he thought about guns, his thoughts on video games are not clear. He did not show his true view of the problem or his approach to solving it. Then, the author said she got it."He's "shrouding" his own opinion. Shrouding. Good Lord. So macabre." she said. After that, she reviewed the administrations of President Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama had tried to understand the issue with wide-ranging initiatives and recommendations after massacres at Columbine High School in 1999 and Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. And nothing happened, including the recommended funding of research on the connection between violent video games and real-world violence. The author expressed her views on the rel...

Trump's awful plan to arm teachers is straight from the NRA playbook

On Feb.23, 2018, USA Today  posted an article about our president and the shooting happened in Florida,  Trump's awful plan to arm teachers is straight from the NRA playbook . In this article, the author said," President Trump deserves credit for agreeing to meet with a delegation of frustrated and emotional survivors of the Feb. 14 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla." When this tragedy happened, all over the country were very shocked at this murder case and also mourned the dead. At the same time of such a tragedy, we can not help wondering what kind of measures should be taken to prevent such a tragedy from happening again.  Trump's advice is that we hide as much as 20% of our country's school teachers in the hands of educators, which is not so palatable. Since the early 1990s, when Congress set schools as gunfighters, armed attackers, both student insiders and stranger intruders, they can secure supporters with little or no disse...
