In our last lesson Farrah told us something about the American rights. Especially she told us about the right to bear arms. At the beginning she explained us some words so that we know what they mean.
Basically what she told us is that in history the Americans had to struggle against the British army because they wanted to be independent from the Britains. They were called Redcoats. After the fight against the British the Cowboys went into the west and built small farms. They needed the guns to fight against the natives and against wild animals. This live is called frontier life.
Furthermore Farrah also told us something about the Redneck stereotype. Rednecks drive very old cars, they drink beer all day long, they are uneducated, they all wear guns and they don’t care about what other people say about them. Rednecks wear very old clothes.
In my opinion it´s not a good idea that people could have weapons because than there would be not so much crime and killed people in America.
