The ever-worsening U.S. inveterate gun-related crime across the country is throwing the U.S. society into greater apprehension and fear.
According to data, the gun-related crimes recorded 400 in 2019. But they rapidly increased in 2020 and 2021, recording 600 and 700 cases respectively. It is expected to increase more this year.
Recently, Chinese Xinhua News Agency reported that more than 17,000 people were killed in the U.S. this year by all kinds of shooting sprees, and among them 640 are young people.
Thirty-three cases of shooting sprees occurred nationwide since the mega-scale gun-related crime in a primary school, Texas in May this year, which claimed twenty-one lives. This fact shows vividly what a serious social problem the gun-related crime has become in the U.S.
Citing this reality, even American media are also lamenting that the ever-increasing gun-related crimes have become an incurable endemic disease.
The Americans are complaining of their miserable situation saying that no one knows who will become the next victim of gun-related crime.
Notwithstanding this reality, the U.S. often picks faults with “human rights” situation of other countries and is indulged in making false propaganda as if it were a “human rights judge”.
It is too natural that the spokesperson for Chinese foreign ministry, in an answer to the question raised by journalists over the human rights situation of the U.S., said that the U.S. government, rather than shaking its fist at other countries and interfering in others’ internal affairs under the pretext of human rights, should see properly its dismal human rights situation and take actions to prevent gun-related violence.
The U.S., before talking about the others’ “human rights” issues, should first redress its inferior human rights situation where the gun-related crimes, human trafficking, racial discrimination and all social evils are rife.
