1
Take a moment and listen to these numbers.
2
Since the shocking mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School last December, which saw the deaths of 20 little children,
3
there have been more than 6,000 people killed by a gun in America.
4
Yes, 6,000.
5
In fact, by the time our program is over tonight, another three Americans will be shot dead.
6
With numbers like these, it would be reasonable to expect the U.S would be doing everything it could to reduce its citizens' access to firearms.
7
Well, I've just traveled across America and found quite the opposite.
8
Let's take a big world view.
9
Where innocent people are forced into unarmed helplessness, they are slaughtered.
10
Where innocent people have the right to keep and bear arms, they survive.
11
And evil loses.
12
Pick one.
13
From the porch on his property in Texas, rock star Ted Nugent is preparing for battle.
14
Why do you need an assault rifle?
15
Why can't we at least get rid of those?
16
They were designed for war.
17
Why is there an obsession to hang on to all of these weapons?
18
You have been so brainwashed.
19
Do you have more than one TV?
20
How dare you?
21
What would you need that for?
22
So just quit with the need crap.
23
Are you kidding me?
24
So I refuse to answer your question that you think you might know what I might need.
25
Welcome to the world, according to Tim.
26
Where as a hunter and shooting enthusiast, guns for he and his wife, Charmaine, are part of everyday life.
27
And I think you would experience the unbridled joy that I get from brass rainbows if you did have a machine gun.
28
But if you don't want one, don't get one.
29
Ted's passion for guns is as big as his voice is loud.
30
Somebody's still shooting in sight.
31
These are number nine.
32
And recent massacres in America, including at the Colorado Movie Theatre...
33
The school has been locked down.
34
..and Sandy Hook Elementary School...
35
I was in the gym and I heard, like, seven loud booms.
36
..have only made him louder.
37
The facts are that mentally ill people get guns and they kill people.
38
There is something wrong with the law, which involves guns, surely, that allows that to happen happen.
39
You can't tell me that you would restrict all those millions,
40
hundreds of millions of law-abiding citizens capability to defend themselves because of the few instances where maniacs or criminals abuse that tool.
41
But the fact is there truly have been 62 massacres in the last 20 years in America.
42
Surely they could have been drastically reduced
43
if the gun laws were tightened you are so beautiful
44
and wrong I'm telling you you have no evidence you have there exists no evidence on planet earth
45
that this fantasy this feel-good dream that somehow if we can just get rid of the water, the drownings will stop.
46
Or, just insert, we can just get rid of the guns and the violence will stop.
47
You've got to be kidding me.
48
And when I bring it up, I'm going to bring it up to eye level.
49
It's not just Ted Nugent fighting for firearms.
50
The revolver's a little bit different.
51
These women are also passionate about pistols.
52
Now we're going to bring our guns up to eye level.
53
For them, it's about protecting their families.
54
Liz, if you could bend forward just from the waist a little bit.
55
There you go.
56
Ooh, nice forward position.
57
I like it.
58
Tonight, suburban housewives of Virginia have joined the pistol-packing ladies' class.
59
Release that magazine and drop it.
60
Where former Marine Theresa O'Vale teaches them how to handle a gun.
61
Remember to pull it back and let it go.
62
You want that round to be firmly seated.
63
So they're not thinking I should get some mace.
64
They're not thinking I should have a better security system.
65
They're thinking I should get a gun.
66
Well, those other options are things they may be considering, but a gun can offer you a little bit more protection for a mace.
67
I mean, when you have a can of mace, it only goes so far.
68
But if somebody's coming at me quickly and I have practiced my gun handling, I can defend myself.
69
The flashbang secures to the center of your bra.
70
Ironically, America's recent gun massacres have seen more people buying guns.
71
Nothing comes between a woman and her gun.
72
And women are now the fastest growing group of gun owners in America.
73
More than 30 million have a firearm, and often with matching accessories.
74
Are we being a little flippant when we encourage women to buy, you know, a matching holster?
75
Well, I don't think so.
76
I think a gun is a weapon, it's a tool if you practice it, and it's your choice to carry it.
77
However, I think a woman accessorizes with a purse, with a pair of sunglasses.
78
A woman might want a pink gun, and I think it's neat that they offer a pink gun.
79
I have two.
80
You have two pink guns?
81
I have two pink guns.
82
Got it?
83
Is it big?
84
All right.
85
But it's not just women children are also being taught how to handle a gun.
86
Good job!
87
Very good!
88
That's good, baby!
89
The courses are open for mothers and children from seven years of age.
90
Mm-hmm.
91
That is a really young child.
92
Does that not make you nervous?
93
Well, we leave it up to the parent's choice.
94
Now, do we start them off with a big gun?
95
No. We start them off with a very tiny little .22.
96
But that can kill.
97
It can.
98
It can kill.
99
Doesn't matter how big or tiny.
100
You're right, it is.
101
But a .22 is less likely to kill.
102
Look, I have to say in Australia, the gun culture is almost non-existent.
103
For people watching you, they would be mortified that a child is being introduced to a gun.
104
What is the goodness of doing that in a society where guns have caused so much damage?
105
I think because the Second Amendment in America speaks of gun ownership, I think that if children are taught at a particular age,
106
again, up to the parent's choice, that they want their child to know about a gun and how to handle it, I think it's important for that family to do that.
107
For many Americans, owning a gun is a right, one written into the Constitution in 1791, when firearms were mostly muskets.
108
It says two barrels included, 177 and 22.
109
Weapons today are extraordinarily different and easily obtained.
110
So you want the 22?
111
In the aisles of many American supermarkets, you can virtually take your pick.
112
I'll have a look at one of those.
113
Thank you.
114
I'll just give you that one back.
115
And this is a common pistol?
116
Yes, it's very common.
117
Right now this is a standard issue with a lot of police, a lot of law enforcement, and civilians are also legal to own this.
118
I have never used a gun.
119
You ready to start?
120
Ooh!
121
Okay, yes.
122
Arms straight out in front of you.
123
But under instruction in Las Vegas...
124
It's ready to go.
125
...I soon understood what it was like to hold...
126
Up there.
127
Yes, ma'am.
128
...and fire one.
129
Alright, well, you're ready.
130
I'm not.
131
Here we go.
132
That almost makes me feel sick.
133
The sheer brute force and lethal power is unnerving.
134
You want to keep it snug.
135
If it's loose, it's obviously going to wiggle around.
136
As it is with the AR-15.
137
Magazine in.
138
The same rapid-fire weapon used at the Sandy Hook and Aurora Cinema massacres.
139
A devastating assault rifle that is disturbingly accurate and easy to use.
140
Why does anyone want a big AR-15?
141
You know, as well as home defence, they are used for recreation.
142
And the AR-15 is not only accurate...
143
You saw how you shot that pistol, right?
144
Yes.
145
Imagine using that for self-defence.
146
Now, imagine somebody's breaking your house and you're using your AR-15.
147
Which would you rather pick up?
148
So do a lot of people have that for self-defence?
149
Self-defence, yes, and as well as recreation.
150
Perhaps there is no greater illustration of America's obsession with guns than here in Cannesaw in Georgia.
151
In 1982, the local city council passed a law requiring the head of every household to maintain a firearm and ammunition.
152
To the rest of the world, and to many Americans, it was an outrageous thing to do.
153
But for the locals, it made perfect sense.
154
This is a Klan uniform about late 1930s.
155
I'm amazed you're allowed to do this because I would have thought it was fairly offensive.
156
It's not offensive to me. Because...?
157
It's my shop.
158
It's not offensive to me.
159
It could be said long-time local Dent Myers belongs to another era.
160
Just like many of the goods he sells in his store in Kennesaw's Main Street.
161
So how many people in Kennesaw would have a gun or a firearm?
162
I would say the 99.7 of the gun.
163
It's just a deterrent's all it is.
164
And it has been a deterrent?
165
Yes, ma'am.
166
To what degree?
167
Well, we don't have any crime hardly at all.
168
You know what caliber it is?
169
Yeah, it's 11mm.
170
Violent crime here is 85% below the national average.
171
I looked in there, I couldn't find any.
172
And visitors to Dent's shop will tell you why.
173
Guns.
174
You carry a gun?
175
Mm-hmm.
176
And you carry a gun.
177
There's one on her, there's one on me.
178
And you both feel the need to walk around with a gun?
179
Sometimes, yeah.
180
I feel more comfortable with it than without it, honestly.
181
Especially being, I don't know, female.
182
It's kind of, I stay out late sometimes for work, and then I come home at 9, 10 o'clock at night, and going to an empty parking lot.
183
Just kind of scary sometimes.
184
Where's your gun now?
185
It's in my purse.
186
Oh, you carry it in your purse?
187
You carry yours in your pocket.
188
And here we are with another walk back in time.
189
At 78, Dent Myers is still every inch the gunslinger with a loaded pistol on each hip.
190
I'm in awe of the sorts of things that you've managed to collect.
191
I'm a little bit...
192
Accumulated.
193
A false move, or in this case, a stumble and a sudden sound by our cameraman.
194
Get rid of saddles, Colonel.
195
And dent is ready.
196
You almost went through your garden, dent.
197
I stopped it before I shot you.
198
Oh, my goodness.
199
I told you I've been trying to do stuff like that.
200
Anyway, these horses ran over a lot of people too, People too ought to ban horses.
201
I can't believe you went for your gun debt.
202
As the gun debate continues to rage, more American communities are now following Kennesaw's lead.
203
I think the thing that is amazing is to be driving through a city, or the suburban streets of a city,
204
knowing that every one of these homes has by law a gun.
205
Gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun.
206
Everybody has a gun.
207
It keeps everybody honest, they say, and I'm sure it does, but I find that extraordinary.
208
The right to bear arms is more than entitlement.
209
It's an entrenched culture which will not be changed easily,
210
despite the devastating tragedies and the wishes of the highest office in the land.
211
We can't tolerate this anymore.
212
These tragedies must end.
213
How dare they, who get tax paid for complete security details with real assault weapons,
214
how dare our employees tell the employers that they get armed security at our expense, but we will be unarmed and helpless?
215
Kiss my ass!
216
In America, it's often the biggest show that gets the most attention.
217
And there's no bigger showman than Ted Nugent.
218
So you want everyone to be able to carry a gun?
219
Absolutely.
220
Anybody who chooses.
221
It's black and white.
222
It's black and white.
223
There's no grey area in this at all?
224
Nope.
225
There's no compromise?
226
Nope.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
