What is gun culture?

In fact, for the past several decades, common people in America have committed violent incidents. People are constantly losing their lives in these attacks. This has been named ‘gun culture’ in America. Now let’s talk about the future. It is not that steps were never taken to crack down on this gun culture. To stop this, President Joe Biden also signed a bill in June 2022. In this law, it was planned to check the records of gun buyers, take back weapons and run many other programs. However, the situation has not changed. While signing this bill, Biden had said, ‘This law will help a lot in saving people’s lives.’ How big this problem is can be gauged from the deadly attack on former US President Donald Trump.

How weapons are within the reach of common people
It is also worth noting that gun violence is the most serious and biggest problem in America. Cases of violence related to gun culture are very common and quite high here. In the year 1791, the Second Amendment to the US Constitution came into force, under which American citizens were given the right to bear arms. Since then, it has become very easy to buy weapons and the common people have access to weapons very easily.
