Hello All,
Gun laws in the US appear to reinforce the violent psyche of fear that
drives it. In the large scheme of things changing the laws may be more than
just treating the symptoms.
Best wishes,
Robert

Hello Everyone,
While I am all for peace and not so fond of guns, from a systemic
perspective, guns are not the problem...only the symptom of the
problem...We have always had guns in this country....and as a social
traumatologist, more problematic is the trans-national epidemic of
state-sponsored, media generated "fear porn " designed to promote and
accelerate " fear of the other "....and this inevitably leads to all manner
of violence as history as proven over and again. Confusing the symptom with
the problem is likely to lead only to more confusion. We might ask: Who or
what benefits from this current fear mongering epidemic that seeks to
exploit the darker aspects of tribal consciousness ?
I addressed this "fear porn " in my blog " Trauma and the Human Condition
" http://anngwyn.wisrville.org as "Our Year of Fear ". which may be of
interest....
Warm regards
