Last lesson the American student Farrah told us something about the right to bear arms in America.
The American needed the guns to struggle against the British when they became independent. After that the Americans have guns because they want to make sure that the government doesn’t go bad.
Cowboys went into the west and made small farms. They needed the guns to fight against the Indians and against animals. There were no police, so they had to protect themselves. This live is called frontier life.
The people who live in the middle of America were called “rednecks”. These people are uneducated, poor and fat. They have old cars and they drink beer all the time. They have guns and they don’t care what other people think about them.
We have also seen a video on “Youtube” about the Arizona shooting. A 22-year-old-man shot the congresswomen Gabriel Gifford into her head. After that he began to shot around him and killed some people. A reason of that could be the health care bill.
I think that it is not good, when people have guns, because the danger is higher that people kill other people with the guns.
