The Dhaka Times Desk US President Joe Biden has requested to change gun laws in the United States. He made the announcement on the third anniversary of the Parkland school shooting in Florida.
Recalling that day, Biden said on Sunday, asking Congress to bring a bill to amend the gun laws.
Biden claimed today that his administration would not wait for the shooting next month. Try to change gun laws as soon as possible. According to the rules of the United States, in order to change the law, it must first be brought to Congress. If the bill passes there, it will go to the Senate. Only after the Senate clears the bill can the President sign the bill into law.
The Democrat-controlled US Congress also introduced a bill to amend gun laws after the Parkland school shooting. But the Republican-dominated Senate did not allow the bill to pass. That is why it was not possible to change the gun laws. After Biden's speech today, US Congress Speaker Nancy Palosi said that the bill to change gun laws will be brought to Congress again.
Biden's point is that the process by which guns are currently purchased in the United States needs to be changed. The police must have all the information about the person buying the gun. Guns can be bought only after police permit. Gun magazine sizes will never be larger. Again high powered guns cannot be sold in the open market. If a gunman carries out an attack with such a gun, action will be taken against the seller.
Biden also said that the safety of the citizens must be ensured. It is the responsibility of the government to ensure that citizens and communities or groups are safe. That's why gun laws need to change.
Note that 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz attacked a school in Florida on Valentine's Day three years ago. 14 students and three teaching staff died in that incident. Nicholas is still on trial. The police told the court that the man had developed mental problems. However, questions have also been raised about how the man bought the gun.
