Living in a "mosaic"!

If I had to choose where to live I would definitely choose the example of the ” mosaic”. I think it is very important to have one national identity but anyway nobody should forget who he or she is and where he or she came from. To me it is very important to have an own attitude towards topics and to be an individual. To some extent assimilation is important but your own cultural and traditional backgrounds do also count because that determines what and who you are and where you initially came from and what your ancestors have been fighting for.

Would you have a gun in your own house?

Why should I have a gun in home? I believe people should not own guns because guns are not the proper way to protect you against robbers. Guns can hurt people; guns can even kill people, so why would somebody protect himself with a gun? To me it is kind of strange that in America almost everybody can have a gun. There are so many insane people running around in the public and you`ll never know what will come to their mind one day. Maybe, again, a guy will turn crazy and start gunfire in school or anywhere else where many people get killed.

I think there should definitely be stricter rules in America concerning guns. As far as I know it is very common to own a gun because it is very easy to buy one in a shop. However, there are strict laws in Austria concerning the sale of them and to me I think the way it is in my home country is right. There are definitely other ways to protect you and to feel safe instead of having a gun, for example, installing an alarm system.
