ââ?¬Å"How to Talk about Guns with Anyoneââ?¬Â? by Katherine Schweit is a serious discussion concerning something that is affecting the United States on a historic level! In fact, one might say itââ?¬â?¢s an epidemic! Many of us believe that somehow speaking about this subject will do no good, but this book disproves that theory.
The author makes a very good case that speaking about guns and how to discuss guns with anyone can, in fact, be useful in decreasing crime as well as the associated injuries! The premise is that the more we discuss these issues, solutions can be formed to reduce their effects.
The book discusses the differences between ââ?¬Å"impulsive or reactiveââ?¬Â? violence, and ââ?¬Å"predatory or plannedââ?¬Â? violence. Reviewing ahead of time and understanding the differences can in fact (if discussed beforehand) avoid finding oneself as a perpetrator or even a victim. Gun attacks and mass shootings are now a part of American life; letââ?¬â?¢s just face it and talk about it!
ââ?¬Å"How to Talk about Guns with Anyoneââ?¬Â? addresses an American phenomenon closely becoming a world issue, gun violence. In addition, many of us believe that not speaking with family and friends about this is fruitless. She outlines very meticulously and details the benefits of talking with our family, friends, or anyone about this.
What I really love about this book is that it comes from a former FBI agent who has firsthand experience with many of the atrocities pertaining to gun violence. Itââ?¬â?¢s written in an easy format, without many ââ?¬Å"bigââ?¬Â? words, so that anyone can comprehend. Full explainable comprehension is key to a book like this to help the reader take in all the nuances of this subject.
Let�s face it; many of us have either been involved with gun violence or know someone who has. This book is the best and most practical book I�ve seen anywhere that attempts to tackle this epidemic. I highly suggest that if you have children or young adults whom you care about, gift them this book.
