Season 1
Episode 1015
Published 2 years, 8 months ago
Description
Young people living in America are more likely to be shot and killed than to die in a car accident. Does that shock you? What about this - there have been over 600 mass shootings recorded in the US every year for 3 years, not far from 2 a day. Why is it getting worse? And Are there any solutions at all? Dr. Patrick M. Carter is Co-Director at the Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention at Michigan State University. He joins Alex Andreou in The Bunker.
- “It’s hard to say exactly what the reason for the increase in mass shootings is, but they are increasing.” – Dr Patrick Carter
- “There isn’t a single solution, it isn't just about banning guns.” – Dr. Patrick M. Carter.
- “We are decades behind on research for this public health problem.” – Dr. Patrick M. Carter.
