Guns and Intimate Partner Violence
Originally shared by VAL-U-PRO CONSULTING GROUP, LLC - SRIKANTH KIDAMBI
Good point.
But, as per stats, and as mentioned earlier, intimate partner violence is more pronounced in households with guns.
Moreover, alcoholism and substance abuse cases are strongly associated to gun related partner violence.
One of the simplest solution would be to impose law to limit guns accessibility for those individuals with alcohol and/or substance abuse history, and also those individuals with restraining order.
You can see below that stats suggest women, who purchased guns for protection are more likely to be a casualty of firearm violence. Most probably because women could be overpowered by men.
When lack of clarity, hot-temper along with factors such as alcoholism, disillusionment takes over, then rational thinking is out of the window.
