Coming back to America， Cynthia Lopez said at eChinacities． "The number of mass shooting in the US has quickly increased in recent years． You don't have to worry about your safety in China﹣guns are not allowed by law in China． Because of America's gun culture， guns will never be illegal in the US．"
