【世界说】50多年来美国校园枪击案数量增加超12倍、死亡数增500% 美媒：若不改革，致命的暴力循环恐将持续！

China Daily

中国日报网3月13日电综合美媒报道，截至3月6日，今年美国各类枪支暴力事件已造成2856人死亡；其中有209人是12至17岁的青少年。另一项最新研究显示，在过去半个世纪里，美国每年的校园枪击案数量增加了12倍以上，其中儿童现在成为校园枪击案受害者的可能性增加了4倍，校园枪击案的死亡率增加了6倍多。美国校园安全杂志网站报道截图据美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）日前报道，截至3月6日，美国今年已发生至少16起校园枪击事件，其中3起发生在大学校园，13起发生在幼儿园到K12的校园。根据CNN对枪支暴力档案（Gun Violence Archive）、《教育周刊》（Education Week）和倡导枪支管制组织“为每个城镇带来枪支安全”（Everytown for Gun Safety）所报告事件的分析，这些事件造成9人死亡，至少23人受伤。近几年美国校园枪击事件骤增，2021年至2023年每年都创下了至少自2008年以来的新纪录。据CNN的分析，2023年至少发生了82起校园枪击事件，2022年是死亡人数最多的一年，有46人死亡。这一年，得克萨斯州乌瓦尔德市罗布小学发生枪击事件，19名学生和两名教育工作者失去生命，另有十几人受伤。另据美国校园安全杂志网站（Campus Safety Magazine）报道，本月6日刊登在《美国外科医师学会杂志》（Journal of the American College of Surgeons）上的一项新研究发现，在过去半个世纪里，美国每年发生的校园枪击案数量增长了12倍以上。此外，儿童成为校园枪击案受害者的可能性增加了4倍，校园枪击案的死亡率上升了6倍多。这项研究分析了美国1970年至2022年的2056起校园枪击案。这些事件涉及3083名受害者，包括2033名5至17岁的儿童和1050名18至74岁的成年人。他们发现，每年发生的校园枪击案数量从1970年的20起增加到2021年的251起。在此期间，儿童成为校园枪击案受害者的比例翻了两番，从每100万人中的0.5人上升到2.2人；死亡率加了6倍，从每百万人口中0.2人上升到1人。美国自由民主的背后，枪支暴力泛滥，已无安全之所，因枪支暴力死亡儿童人数屡创纪录……（来源：中国日报作者：蔡艨）得克萨斯州圣安东尼奥大学医院外科主任罗纳德·斯图尔特博士（Dr. Ronald Stewart）没有参加这项研究，但他表示：“不仅校园枪击案增加了，而且死亡人数的增加甚至超过了枪击案的数量。” 研究显示，84%的校园枪击案使用的是手枪，其次是步枪（7%）和猎枪（4%）。然而，步枪是最致命的武器，与其他枪支相比，步枪的致死率高于致伤率。在美国的所有州中，加利福尼亚州发生的校园枪击案最多（214起），其次是得克萨斯州（176起）和佛罗里达州（120起）。然而，哥伦比亚特区的校园枪击案发生率最高，每100所学校发生5.5起，特拉华州（5.4）和路易斯安那州（4.6）紧随其后。首席研究员、亚利桑那大学医学院（University of Arizona College of Medicine）创伤外科临床教授路易斯·马尼奥蒂博士（Dr. Louis Magnotti）说：“枪支暴力是一种公共卫生危机，亟待解决；作为创伤外科医生，我们的任务是照顾这些枪击受害者，因此，我们希望通过我们的研究，能够揭示并承认一种持续存在的公共卫生流行病，不仅是一般的枪支暴力，尤其是校园枪击。” 他同时指出：“决策者需要通过提高家长对安全存放枪支的认识，教育学校社区了解潜在风险，并参与有关限制青少年获得枪支的战略的项目和政策讨论来解决这些问题。通过采用这种方法，我们可以集中精力将枪支暴力的影响降到最低。” CNN早前报道曾写道，几十年来，美国无处不在的枪支暴力几乎没有让任何地方能免受伤害。美国与枪支所有权的关系是独特的，其枪支文化在全球范围内也是个“异类”，大规模枪击事件的常态化是美国独有的现象。威廉·帕特森大学（William Paterson University）社会学和刑事司法助理教授杰森·R·席尔瓦（Jason R. Silva）说，美国是过去20年中唯一一个每年都发生大规模枪击事件的发达国家。专家表示，大规模枪击事件的发生推动了对更多枪支的需求，与此同时，控枪活动人士表示（枪支立法）改革的时机早已成熟。然而，几十年来，政治障碍使美国的此类努力停滞不前，在这种情况下，致命的暴力循环似乎注定会继续下去。（编译：马芮编辑：高琳琳韩鹤）【责任编辑：马芮】
