The United States is the country with the most firearms in the hands of civilians in the world. The Americans have 120 weapons for every 100 inhabitants, that is, an arsenal larger than their own army. In this country, it can be easier for a minor to buy an automatic rifle than a can of beer.
The American constitution is very clear in this regard, it is protected to buy, possess and carry firearms, but the consequences of misusing this tool to kill can be terrible. In the world's first democracy, there are two mass shootings a day, the main cause of death among minors is a gunshot wound, and the homicide rate is the highest of any Western country.
We traveled to Texas, the most conservative state and programs in the country, and to Las Vegas, the national leisure capital and site of the largest massacre in history to describe, hand in hand with the Spanish who live there, how people live surrounded by firearms. of fire.
