2016年元旦当天,奥巴马发表讲话,再次提起控枪议题。从8年前上任伊始,奥巴马就承诺在任期内实现控枪。然而此时距离他离任已不到一年了,愿望还能实现吗?美国是世界上第一个,也是至今唯一一个公民普遍有持枪权利的国家。但这项权利也让美国的枪支泛滥,威胁着美国社会安全。如今,美国每100个公民中就有89人持枪;人口3.2亿, On New Year’s Day in 2016, Obama made a speech once again raised the issue of gun control. From his inception eight years ago, Obama promised to bring gun control over his tenure. However, it was less than a year since he left office. Can the desire be realized? The United States is the first country in the world and the only country to which citizens hold guns. But this right has also allowed the United States to flood its guns and threaten the social security of the United States. Today, 89 of the 100 citizens in the United States are armed with a population of 320 million.
