Many Chinese have a wrong understanding of the United States, thinking that Americans cherish their lives.For example, many of my college classmates believe that the United States has lost to China in North Korea and lost in Vietnam and elsewhere because Americans cherish their lives and do not want to be unnecessary sacrifice.Wang Shuo, a well -known online celebrity in China, once said on the Internet that the United States has stopped war in North Korea and does not want to use an advantageous weapon to slaughter the Chinese army.

This is actually a misunderstanding of the concept of the US government.The American soldiers in North Korea did not want to slaughter the Chinese soldiers who did not want to slaughter their weapons, but they were slaughtered by Chinese soldiers who were backward by weapons.MacArthur was fired in North Korea, not because he killed too much, but because he had told Truman that the Chinese dared to participate in the war by the United States, which was the opposite of the United States.

In the United States, I often see the slogans and activities that support the army and "SUPPORT OUR TROOPS".Americans do not understand that the best way to support the army is not involved in war, especially war that has nothing to do with the United States.After World War II, the United States was a superpower. No one could challenge the United States, but after World War II, the United States challenged a total of 201 wars, accounting for 80%of the total number of wars in the world.This shows that the United States is a fighting country, and it also shows that the United States does not cherish life: because war is killing, while killing others, it will be killed.

Many problems in the United States today are caused by this warning concept of governing the country.For example, today's fiscal crisis is because the United States has consumed a lot of resources directly in the US War and the Vietnam War, recently the Afghan war, Iraq war, especially in the anti -terrorism war that did not clearly clear the border.Thousands of veterans have indirectly consumed a lot of resources due to injuries and mental illness caused by war.

The grandson of the grandson of the book of 2500 years ago pointed out that soldiers, murderers.Everyone who has a hundred battles, who are not good.The soldiers who do not fight are also the good of goodness.Because even if more enemies are killed, you have to die.Only victory over fighting is the best result.This is why Sun Tzu's military law says soldiers, places of life, and the way of survival.As a last resort, do not use soldiers.Since ancient times, the Chinese have emphasized that although the country is great, it will be great, although the world will be safe, and the world will be in danger.This may be one of the only reasons why China can continue until today.

Most of the United States has no death penalty, and the murderers with great indignation are generally not sentenced to death.Even if the death penalty is sentenced, it will take more than 10 years to appeal in order to eventually execute.Americans oppose the execution of the death penalty, and they seem to cherish their lives. In fact, they are also one of the reasons for the proliferation of various violence, including the violence of guns.In 1990, I lived in Vermont. A woman was mistakenly killed as a prey in her home, but the jury found that the hunter was not guilty because the victim did not wear orange clothes.

A Japanese student knocked the wrong door on the day of Halloween of Japanese students, and realized that he left after the wrong knock.The homeowner shouted him "standing" with a gun, and the Japanese students did not understand, and the homeowner shot to kill the Japanese student.The homeowner has the right to shoot in the United States illegally entering the territory of others.In the end, the American homeowner was released innocently.Such a judgment is by no means cherishing life.Killing can not be repaid, it can not be punished without any punishment, and it is tantamount to encouraging the killing.This is also one of the important reasons for the flooding of guns in the United States.

After 2001, the United States prepared public opinion in Iraq.The targets made of President Saddam in major shopping malls are sold. The title is: what is to live or die.I thought at the time, what kind of information would this be passed to the people: Isn't it too dangerous to kill someone you don't like?Long -term instilling this concept is definitely the reason why American violence crimes are flooded.The biggest cause of death in the United States is now one to 18 years old.Recently, a six -year -old child shot and seriously injured female teachers at school. It looks shocking, but Americans always have an attitude that has nothing to do with themselves.I asked a person who lives in San Louis, and how to look at the city he lives in the city with the worst gun violence in the United States. He said that he could not live in the urban area. He lived in the suburbs and had no impact on him.

I taught last semester. The daughter of an American colleague had a girlfriend. The two children of my girlfriend grew up with my colleagues' grandchildren and play together.As a result, the husband of this girlfriend suddenly shot and shot his four -year -old and six -year -old son, and then committed suicide.This tragedy has a great impact on the spirit of my colleague and his grandson, and he has to take a leave to go home to deal with it.But when I talked to him about this, he did not find problems from the concept of governing the country in the United States, but just thought that the child's father was a evil person.

The violence of firearms in the United States flooded, and hundreds of thousands of people were killed every year.In the three days of the New Year of the Lunar New Year to the second day of the New Year in the lunar calendar in 2023, there were three gun violent incidents in California. Dozens of people were killed and injured. Most of the victims were Chinese in the United States, which made the Lunar New Year a strong tragedy.In the 245th year of the United States, there were only more than 20 years without war.The civil war and the foreign war have been almost in war.Such a country must not cherish life.

Faced with the increasingly serious gun violence, the Republican Party still insists that holding guns is the right to the Constitution. It is believed that the killing is not a gun. Without a gun, you can kill someone else.They are right.It is not just guns, but not just guns, but the concept of governing the country without cherishing life behind it.

Blacks in the United States were shot and killed by law enforcement officers properly. Therefore, the blacks launching the "BLACK LIFE MATERS" campaign, and some Chinese translated it into the "black life" movement.In fact, their original intention is just "the life of black people is also life".

Of course, the blacks in the United States do not understand that they were killed not only because they were black, but because they were poor.Most of the soldiers who were killed overseas came from the poor families. Most of the police shot and killed were also poor. The violent victims of guns were mostly poor in their lives.Before the United States changes the concept of governing the country that advocates violence, gun violence will only become more and more serious.
