The shootings in schools have become the issues of the electoral campaign of medium mandate. Although a majority of voters is favorable to increase the controls of use and purchase of firearms, others remember that carrying them is a constitutional right. This debate charges a particular sense on the eve of the elections in Uvalde, Texas, where in May a massacre in a primary school left 21 dead. Until there was our special envoy, Alejo Schapire.
The deadliest shooting in Texas’s history has thrown a long shadow in the medium mandate elections, intensifying the campaign of the republican government Greg Abbott against Democrat Beto O’Rourke, through intensive television ads.
From the shooting, the parents of some of the victims have gathered locally and in Washington, DC, testifying in front of Congress, asking for weapons reforms that they believe will prevent another massacre.
The Democratic candidate for Governor Beto O’Rourke, has the hope of overthrowing Republican governor Greg Abbott, who has visited the county at least half a dozen times since the shooting, according to his campaign press secretary.
However, according to the citizens of Uvalde, nothing is said because the consequences of the shooting have divided the community even more along party and social lines. While some are against the use of weapons, others do not believe that the regulation of the issue will change the uphill above violence.
