Guns With History

In America is very common among people to have firearms like guns. It makes people feel safer but what studies show is that it actually increases the risk of injury and death. 
States United to Prevent Gun Violence tries to educate and prevent people who want to get a firearm. For this they have made a social experiment that they called "the unthinkable". It consists in opening a real "gun store" on Manhattan where gun buyers will be recording with hidden cameras. 



To created a drama they put disturbing tags on each weapon indicating wich models were used in particular mass shootings, unintentional shootings, homicides and suicides. The buyers listen to the stories behind each gun model and they realise how harmful a firearm can be and the end up thinking that to have a firearm in their houses is fewer saves at leats. 



The recorded video want to inform people of the potential risks and unpredictable outcomes of the arms and make them think twice the fact of buying a gun. 
The facts are very clear, in the USA died every year a lot of people because of the possibility of having firearms. It can be an accident or can be deliberately, but the damage is the same in both cases. 
A gun is a very dangerous thing that can take away the life of someone. In addition it's very difficult to control, I mean, it can be shooting by accident in any moment and by anyone. 
When you listening to the stories that are related on the video is when you realize the power that a firearm have. 
I think that if in one country you only can feel safe when you take a gun in your bag, there is a big problem there. Societies were build to keep people safety. People should feel safe everywhere, they don't have to think that can be killed in the middle of the street because then they are living with fear and it's not a god live.
