On May 24, a terrible shooting incident happened at a primary school in Texas, the U.S., where 19 students and 2 teachers were killed and 10-odd students were seriously injured, much to the surprise of the world people.
Before the impact of this incident hardly calmed down, another terrible gunfight broke out on June 1 at a hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with 4 people dead and 10 people injured.
The U.S. newspaper “Washington Post” carried the news that more than 1,310,100 people have been recorded as the victims of gun-related crime since 1999 and their average age is under 16.
The U.S. NPR and ABC News reported that gun-related crime has taken place in 29 countries since 2015 with the mortality rate taking up 97% for the children under the age of 4 and 92% for the children aged 13~14 in the U.S.
Juvenile mortality rate caused by the gun-related crime in the U.S. increased by 30% between 2019 and 2020. In 2020 alone, juvenile mortality caused by gun-related crime reached 4,368. In 2021, it reached 5,692, 13% increase compared to 5 years ago.
Recently, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) issued a report that 6,353 children were killed and 1,696 have been injured from the gun-related crime in the U.S. from January this year. The black children are 4 times more likely to be killed in gunfights than the white children.
It is the miserable human rights situation of the U.S. where children lose their lives by gun-related crime at all hours when they are about to come into bud.
Despite all these facts, the U.S. often picks faults with the human rights situation in other countries at its pleasure and uses the human rights issue as the means of interference into others’ internal affairs.
The U.S. had better take care of its own affairs rife with immorality and depravity before “meddling” in other’s affairs.
