Question

美国人为什么都有枪

Answer 1

在美国，对于枪支的管理不是很严格，很多人都拥有枪支。这可能是美国的高犯罪率决定的，因为你没办法和犯罪者谈论和平。对于作者这样的单亲母亲而言，拥有一把枪又尤为必要。她要保证自己和孩子的生命安全，即使这会威胁到他人的生命。这就是作者准备买一把枪的初衷。
可是当作者拥有了一把真正的枪之后，她又开始惶恐不安起来。首先她要教育自己的孩子关于枪支的知识，但同时也不希望孩子习惯或者喜欢上枪支。再者她认为对枪的日益习惯可能导致她对生命的轻视，并且她意识到一旦她使用了手中的枪，也许结束的就是一个鲜活的生命，即使这不是她所希望看到的。对于一个认为在任何情况下绝不杀人的人而言，这结果还是太残酷了。正如文章中所说，暴力只能带来暴力，和平的解决暴力问题才是她所希望看到的，毕竟没有人希望看到死亡。所以最后作者表示“But I was so scary for having a gun”。也许作者害怕的不是拥有一把枪，而是对生命的不尊重。
翻译：
In the United States, for control of guns not very strict, many people have guns. This may be the American high crime decision, because you don't talk about peace and offenders. For the author such single mother character, having a gun and necessary. She wanted to assure oneself and child's life safety, even may threaten the lives of others. This is the author ready to buy a gun in the original intention.
But when the writer has a real gun after, she began to panic up. First she wanted to education their children about guns knowledge, but also do not want your child habit or like guns. Moreover she thought on the gun increasingly habits may cause her contempt for life, and she realized that she USES the hand once gun, perhaps end is a vivid life, even if this is not what she wants to see. For a thought in any circumstances never kill people, this result is still too cruel. As the article, they said in violence can only lead to violence, peaceful resolution in violence is she had hoped, after all, no one wants to see death. So finally the authors said "I was so scary for you having a gun." Maybe the author fear is not having a gun, but don't respect for life.
