Guns-guns-guns

And it’s remind me about a text, I have read, named guns-guns-guns. Because it tells about, how spread guns, and other kind of weapons, are in the U.S.A, and of course how big a problem it really is, for making a safely land, for the public actually. Nobody can control the gun laws in the U.S.A. The politicians don’t want to spoil the “great American gun culture”, but do they know it all??, the numbers show that there are more than 192 million owned firearms (you know, a big name including all fire weapons) in the U.S.A, which is a big problem, because the most gun accident’s happen for children and young people. In one year there were killed 5285 persons by firearms, and that’s most more than every other rich countries. And many of these accident’s are happen because of, that the children actually play with the guns, after having found it, in their parents room example, because the parents haven’t saved the firearms properly enough. And in 1999 it was going very bad, when a little boy, took his dad’s gun with him in school, after which he shot allot of teachers and pupils. And a very central thing in this problem, is the organization called NRA, which stands up for Americas gun industry. Because they don’t care about all these bad things involved with guns, and say instead that it is Hollywood’s fault, because the violence films they are making, send a bad image to children about a society. So NRA refuse to accept any accuser, and continues instead to make guns. It doesn’t help to have guns in a country as a self defense tool, because guns involve crime and violence. In addition, I think it’s ridicules that people can bye firearms, before alcohol, in my opinion.

Nogle få kommentarer:

* Det er ikke så godt at starte med 'and', idet 'and' markerer en forbindelse mellem to ord eller to sætninger.

* Titlen på den artikel, du omtaler, skal sættes i anførelsestegn, dvs. 'Guns-guns-guns'.

* I stedet for 'in the U.S.A, bør du sige 'in the US'.

* Når man på engelsk skriver tal med flere end tre cifre på engelsk, så sætter man komma mellem hvert tredje tal. Således skriver man fx 1,000 -- ikke 1000 -- og 1,000,000 -- ikke 1000000. Dette gælder dog ikke for årstal.

* En sidste ting: Er du sikker på at NRA producerer våben? Er NRA ikke en lobbyorganisation? Det står jo for 'National Rifle Association' -- det lyder ikke som en våbenproducent.

Guns-guns-guns

And it’s remind me about a text, I have read, named guns-guns-guns. Because it tells about, how widespread guns and other kind of weapons, are in the U.S.A, and of course how big a problem it really is, when you need to asurre a safe comunity for the general public. Nobody can control the gun laws in the U.S.A. The politicians don’t want to spoil the “great American gun culture”, but do they know it all? The numbers show that there are more than 192 million owned firearms (you know, a big name including all fire weapons) in the U.S.A, which is a big problem, because most gun accident’s happen for children and young teens. In one year 5285 persons were killed by firearms, and that’s much more than in every other rich countries together. And many of these accident’s happen because, the children actually play with the guns, after having found it, in their parents room for example, because the parents haven’t hid the firearms properly. And in 1999 a tragedy occurred, when a little boy took his fathers gun with him in school, after which he shot a lot of teachers and pupils. And a very central thing in this problem, is the organization called NRA (National Rifle Association), that stands up for and protects the Americas gun industry. Because they don’t care about all these bad things happening with uncontrolled guns. Instead they say that it's Hollywoods fault, because the violence in the movies they are making, send a bad image to children about our society. So NRA refuse to accept any accuser and instead they continue to manufacture guns. It doesn’t help to have guns in a country as a self defense tool, because guns involved crime and violence. In addition, I think it’s ridicules that people can buy firearms, before they can buy alcohol.

Og til sigmund, jo du har ret at NRA ikke producere nogen våben. Det er bare en organisation, hvis formål det er at beskytte borgernes ret til at bære våben, bedre kendt som The 2nd Amendment.

citat fra artiklen:

The NRA is the powerful organistation which stands up for america's gun industry. The NRA fights almost every reasonable effort to protect children from guns by law.

Selv tak du :)

Hvis du ønsker mere om emnet kan jeg stærkt anbefalde "Bowling for Columbine" af Michael Moore. Filmen handler om tragedien i Columbine hvor to elever gik amok på skolen og dræbte en stor del lære og elever. Filmen sætter fokus på USA's våbenlove og hvordan regeringen har en interesse i at sammarbejde med NRA for at beholde magten :)

Sidenote: du må gerne skrive the USA, det er vist mest en smagssag om man skriver the US eller the USA.
