The crime of gun? Or the crime of not having a gun?

There are 550 million arms in the world, which means that every 12 people have 1 gun.
The only question is how do we let the other 11 people also have guns.

This is the beginning of the film.
Two words on the bullets all over the floor.
Two very profound sentences.

Is the crime because of the gun?
I do not think so.
The gun sellers just sell the guns, they don't sell the idea of ​​sin, and they don't sell the idea of ​​oppression, massacre, or genocide.
The sin is in those thoughts, not in the gun.

Maybe you would say that without a gun, evil will not run rampant.
But history has never said that.
History tells us that as long as there are weak people who cannot protect themselves, evil will run wild.
With or without guns.

So the only way to exterminate evil is to give weapons to the weak.
Only when the weak are given the means to protect themselves, will the evil converge.
Give the sheep sharp claws, and the wolf will retreat.
Let the other 11 people also have guns.

There are 550 million arms in the world, which means that every 12 people have 1 gun.

    The beginning and the end of the film: shining golden bullets like gold: Africa's mountains, treasures, superior natural minerals and resources.. But so barbaric, evil, poverty and ignorance, disease and death.. What a pity
