INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
TEHRAN - American political analyst Martin Love believes that the Texas shooting may spark meaningful changes in U.S
Obviously, some incidents are worse than others, especially if the victims happen to be children
The net results of the Uvalde shooting are further confirmation that something is wildly out of control in the U.S., in particular access to
government has long refused to clamp down, especially with respect to military-style weapons
There is in fact no Constitutional aspect to general weapon ownership
The intent of the amendment that exists was over 200 years ago to provide for a militia, but not random gun ownership
The Uvalde massacre, however, may well spark changes
Welcome changes to gun laws
society looks very sick to foreigners, and rightly so
government, for one thing, basing its power on military violence, sets a horrible example for the citizenry, too.Q: Criticisms have grown
over late response by police
What is your comment?A: There is no question the police acted improperly
They stood around outside the Uvalde School, apparently too cowardly to go inside for almost an hour and throttle the young gunman
One woman, it has been reported, drove 45 minutes to the school and apparently got inside and successfully extracted two of her children
mass shootings in the U.S
Are they on the right side?A: Republican lawmakers have probably been more vehement about gun ownership and many Democrats, but neither

to shoot others willy-nilly

What are the main causes of such a failure?A: There have been instances where a citizen in the U.S., taking advantage of lax gun laws, has
used a weapon to preclude a potential massacre
No one should be allowed to own a weapon that has no practical use but to murder
feed the coffers of the merchants of death
Given the profits made by arms manufacturers, the defense industry, gun dealers, and the lobbyists who represent them in Congress, it comes
again, WHY do these things happen so often in the U.S.?When you begin to connect the dots, they lead right back to the American police state
and the war-drenched, violence-imbued, profit-driven military-industrial complex, both of which continue to dominate, dictate and shape
almost every aspect of American life as well as American foreign policy
The net result of current postures at home and abroad will eventually spell the END of the U.S., or at least revulsion towards America and
