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
Anngwyn St. Just Ph.D.
