This is sad.
Amnesty International and a list of countries have issued warnings about travel to the United States because of gun violence here.
Amnesty International said,
“Depending on the traveler’s gender identity, race, country of origin, ethnic background, or sexual orientation, they may be at higher risk of being targeted with gun violence, and should plan accordingly.”
So far, the countries that are advising caution to their citizens who might be considering a trip to the United States are Uruguay, Venezuela, Japan, Germany, Ireland, and New Zealand.
This is sadder.
Trump, ignoring the message being sent- a message that could motivate his administration to take steps necessary to reduce the gun violence- chose to act childish.
“If they did that, we’d just reciprocate. We are a very reciprocal nation with me as the head. When somebody does something negative to us in terms of a country, we do it to them.”
He threatened undefined retaliation against any country and organization that issues travel advisories to their citizens or member because of our gun violence.
