In the face of such a situation, President Joe Biden issued a statement on the White House website to express his condolences to the victims of the shooting case, he has ordered the U.S. White House, major public buildings, military posts and embassies, have to lower their flags to half-mast. At the same time, Biden also mentioned in the statement the various shooting cases that have occurred in the United States in the past, including Georgia, Colorado and South Carolina areas in successive shootings.
Biden noted that, compared to the briefings reported to him and Vice President Harris by Homeland Security, this one was the most tragic of the series, although there have been multiple shootings. But all of the cases, each of them, are worthy of attention. In response, Biden also believes that the successive outbreaks of shootings have reflected the fact that gun violence is becoming an epidemic in the United States. However, the fact shows that what the American people care most is not only the action of lowering the flag at half-mast once Biden encountered the problem, but more appropriate ways to deal with the situation.

The main reason why Biden is difficult to implement a gun ban policy
It’s not that Biden doesn’t want to implement his gun ban policy quickly in the United States. It’s just that, for various reasons, Biden simply can’t act. The main reason is that first, the early formulation of the U.S. Constitution has had a particularly profound impact in the United States. The United States is a traditional era has been written into the Constitution to allow people to legally carry guns, so the government wants to achieve the policy of gun control at this time, it is almost as difficult as the sky, let alone a total ban on guns!
Second, the United States about the gun sale channel, involving too many group interests. As we all know, at present, the United States about the gun industry, has become a full-scale industry, involving a very wide range, once affected the development of the United States domestic part of the economy. So in a variety of gun supermarkets have been all over the streets of the United States, once the U.S. government to take gun control measures, then involved will be a large number of interests. If it is true that the government decision affects the chain of interests of some enterprises, only afraid that some enterprises try to take action, but also the U.S. government can not stand.

Thirdly, the current serious epidemic crisis in the United States is a key topic that the U.S. government cannot ignore. Because of the crisis of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the United States has become a country that occupies many topics in the international community. Therefore, compared to gun control, alleviating the epidemic crisis and achieving economic recovery is what the U.S. government currently considers itself to be more concerned about. As for the gun-related violence, even if the U.S. government emphasizes on the mouth to solve, but the action force is still difficult to carry out the full implementation.
45 shootings in 1 month
But the reality has been highlighted that if the U.S. government can no longer put some focus on gun control, the shooting crisis in the United States will only become more frequent and more serious. According to the data, starting from the shooting in Atlanta, GA, to the current shooting in Indiana, there have been 45 shootings in the United States in just one month. These incidents occurred in almost all places such as supermarkets, schools, highways, convenience stores and gas stations, which means that Americans, even children, are now at great risk of being attacked while walking.

CNN and GVA define a mass shooting as a situation where four or more people are injured or even killed as a result of being shot. Considering that the number of people killed in car accidents in the U.S. is now far less than the number of people killed by gun violence, it is enough to see how serious the problem is already. It is worth mentioning that the more frequently shootings occur, the more the number of people in the U.S. about gun purchases is on the rise. It cannot be ruled out that there are people who are suspected of malicious acts, but more people are doing it for self-preservation.
The analysis believes that the continued occurrence of mass shootings has gradually meant that the United States may gradually have to “return to normal life”. Biden has admitted that gun violence in the United States has made the country an international embarrassment. But all walks of life can see very clearly that the U.S. Congress is not much interested in a comprehensive reform of gun control policies. Under such circumstances, the road to gun control or even gun prohibition in the United States is still a long way off!
