THE US GUN CULTURE







 This document is a campaign  to prevent gun violence managed by Bill Braidy since  1974 .
On the poster we can see the number of murders made by  guns in one year in seven countries , from  seventeen people in Finland to  200 in Canada but the most striking figure is United States which 9,484 .
the gun represent the american flag , the compaign wants to sensiblize people about the dangers of this weapon especially in United States because it is  where there are most deaths , that is why wee can see in poster ´´ GOD BLESS AMERICA ´´






in this document we can see two main differences, the gun has changed compared to that of 2004 and the number of deaths has decreased. We can view this as a positive thing and we can think that this campaign reaches its goal of reducing deaths by firearms laws that sensitive weapons, we can say that their AWARENESS campaign was good but that it would do more because people still die front of weapons violence
          

               In these graphics we see two things: first, the top 10 countries where there is gun murder and secondly, the number of people killed by guns in developed countries only this time.
In the first graphic, we can see that the USA are far behind (26th) which can make USA feel better about themselves but if you compare with the second graphic about gun murder in developed countries we can see that USA "wins" the contest by far, because we can probably not compare poor countries with an unstable political state with developed countries, putting the USA first in line when it comes to gun violence in developed countries.

                     
                              


                                


In this cartoon we can see an old statue representing the authentic second amendment and a parody of this statue with a man from the National Rifle Association standing on a pile of munition boxes.
Next to the first statue, the author wrote "Second Amendment as defined by the founding fathers
Next to the second "statue", the man from the NRA, looking scary and scared at the same time, is carrying three rifles and multiple guns in his pocket. He is way "larger" then the man of the other statue and looks really embarasing . I think the author did this to highlight the changes

   This cartoon denounces the role of the state in the gun traffic in a USA , In this cartoon we see that there has been a bloodshed in the capitol, somebody was killed, probably by a gun,lobby guy says: "Now where were we, before we were so rudely interrupted..."the man prefer  the money to the security of citizens, this document also shows the corrupmtion of some leaders
