In this episode, we address the growing concern over political violence in the United States as the presidential election draws near. Political violence, defined as the intentional use of power and force to achieve political ends, is a significant public health issue. Violence researcher and emergency physician, Dr. Garen Wintemute, joins us to provide a clear, evidence-based perspective on the topic. We explore recent data and expert insights to better understand the threat of political violence, its potential impact in emergency departments, and what we can do about it. *Please note: Views and opinions expressed in this episode are the speaker's own and do not represent those of UC Davis or the University of California.*  Are you concerned about political violence related to the upcoming election?

June 30, 2024 Street Soldiers Radio discusses the newly released report from the U.S. Surgeon General stating Gun Violence is a public health crisis. Dr. Garen Wintemute, an emergency room doctor and expert joins us to further discuss the issues and impacts of gun violence along with guests Dr. Julie Parsonnet, Dr. Dean Winslow and…

The United States Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, declared this week that gun violence in the US is a public health crisis. Dr. Murthy publicly stated, in a 39-page advisory, that the U.S needs to treat gun violence in the same way we have tackled smoking or car crashes. Deaths caused by guns rose to the highest in three decades in 2021. In 2020, firearm-related injuries became the leading cause of death of children and adolescents aged 1-19. Gun-related deaths for youths were higher than car accidents, cancer, and heart disease. To quote Dr. Murthy,  “I want people to understand the full impact of firearm violence in our country, and I want them to see it as a public health issue. I know it's been polarizing and I know it's been politicized, but if we can see it as a public health issue, we can come together and implement a public health solution.” Also, this week marks two years since since the mass shooting at the July 4th parade in Jeremy's hometown of Highland Park, Illinois that killed seven people, and injured many more. Your Doctor Friends decided it was timely to re-release last year's Independence Day episode.

In our latest episode of "The Colorado Switchblade," we tackle some of the most urgent stories impacting Colorado today.We open with a personal and community-focused discussion on the recent bomb threats to schools and synagogues across Colorado. As a parent and community member, I share my firsthand experience of the incident, examining the broader implications for school safety and community security.We then shift our focus to Governor Jared Polis's State of the State address, dissecting his vision for tackling Colorado's housing crisis and transportation needs.The episode wraps up with insights into the upcoming municipal elections in Estes Park. We outline key dates and candidates, emphasizing the importance of these elections in shaping our local governance's future.Listen to the full episode for an in-depth exploration of these pressing issues, reflections on personal experiences, and a candid discussion on the state of our community and state.Here is an interview that I did with NBC Washington that aired yesterday. The others interviewed, and I (with whom I have had speaking engagements) discuss alarming findings from a survey on Americans' attitudes toward political violence. The survey, which included over 8,600 participants, revealed that a significant portion of Americans believe violence could be justified in various political scenarios. It highlights concern over the growing support for political violence, particularly among anti-government movements and recent firearm purchasers. The article features insights from Dr. Garen Wintemute, who initiated the research, and myself, who emphasizes the power of storytelling over truth in these movements. The article also addresses the potential dangers posed by armed individuals who support political violence.Also, below, you will find the link to a similar incident to this week's bomb scare that happened on February 22 last year. Jason Van Tatenhove, an acclaimed author and consultant, intricately blends his writing and political activism expertise. He penned the non-fiction work ‘The Perils of Extremism' and several fictional titles set amidst the scenic backdrop of Estes Park, Colorado, such as ‘Colorado's Chance: The Firewalker.' As a consultant with Georgetown Law's Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection and a vocal contributor to MSNBC and CNN, Jason casts a discerning eye on violent political extremism and misinformation, even testifying before Congress on these pressing issues. His writings have found a home in various publications, including Newsweek, Salon, Giant Freakin Robot, and Estes Park Trail-Gazette, seamlessly traversing through diverse media landscapes across Colorado.

Another massacre in America. It feels like we are living in a nightmare—and we should refuse to become numb to it. Instead, we should use our anger and sorrow and demand that our leaders do the things that most Americans support to stop the carnage. I include links to some *extremely* graphic images of Emmett Till's corpse as well as the corpses of the recent mass shooting victims in Allen, Texas below. If you believe that you will not be able to handle seeing these images, I strongly urge you not to click on them. These images are not included to sensationalize the topic or to disrespect the deceased. They are included here because I do not believe that America can grapple with the problem of gun violence without viewing and truly confronting the devastation that it causes. In 1955, Emmett Till—an African American teen—was kidnapped and brutally murdered by White racists. His mother, Mamie, insisted on an open casket funeral, forcing the world to see the consequences of racism in America. Photographs of Till's mutilated corpse were circulated around the country by Jet Magazine and The Chicago Defender and generated intense public reaction, contributing to progress in the Civil Rights Movement. You can click here to see them. I have no idea whether being confronted with the very graphic images of mass shootings in America will rouse the kind of reaction that might lead to meaningful change in the same way that Till's helped further the Civil Rights Movement. But I believe we owe it to our children to try: You can click here to see them. It is not radical to say that, nationwide, we should: Ban assault rifles and high-capacity magazines Enact a 30-day waiting period for all gun sales Enact red flag laws Enact better and uniform background checks Raise the legal age at which people can purchase firearms Improve our mental health system I know this is not radical because a majority of Americans support everything on that list. You can read the Gallup surveys yourself. There is consensus in America on what needs to be done. The problem is not with the citizens, but our leaders. There is no excuse to wait any longer. Contact your elected representatives and demand a better world for our children. The best research suggests we can make a serious dent in this problem if our leaders would only implement the reasonable preferences of a majority of Americans.

As emergency physicians, we are no strangers to firearm violence and its consequences. We explored this topic with renowned expert, Dr. Garen Wintemute, in our January 2019 episode, #thisismylane. Most physicians feel strongly that we have a role in gun violence prevention, but many of us aren't sure what we can do in our daily clinical practice to make a difference. That's why Psychiatrist Dr. Amy Barnhorst and her colleagues at the California Firearm Violence Research Center at UC Davis developed the BulletPoints Project. BulletPoints is a resource for clinicians and medical educators who are committed to firearm injury prevention.  We've covered how to APPROACH patients about gun safety and ASSESS risk, now we learn how to ACT. In the final episode of our series, Dr. Barnhorst explains what we can do as physicians to help mitigate risk. We'll talk about options, including temporary transfer of firearms to a safe party, psychiatric holds when appropriate, and “red flag” laws that allow for emergent removal of firearms in extremely high risk situations.  Have you ever had a patient you felt was high risk intentional to accidental injury due to firearms? How did you act to reduce that risk? Tag us on social media, @empulsepodcast, reach out via email empulsepodcast@gmail.com, or connect through our website, ucdavisem.com.

After the massacre in Uvalde, Texas, it’s easy to feel discouraged about guns in America because we’ve been here before, and little has changed. But one person who remains hopeful in times like these is Dr. Garen Wintemute. He heads the Violence Prevention Research Program at the University of California, Davis, and has been studying gun violence for decades. “Violence is a health problem,” he said. “It kills more people than motor vehicle injuries. And, yes, I’m constitutionally hopeful. But my hope is born out of having done this for 40 years.” On the show today, Wintemute walks us through some of the policies that could make a real difference, from “red flag” laws to universal background checks, and discusses why this time could be different despite the gun control gridlock in Washington. In the News Fix, the nation’s highest court is going to great lengths to find the person who leaked the draft opinion on overturning Roe v. Wade. Plus, if you’re tired of paying high gasoline prices, get used to it. We’ll explain why. Then, listeners sound off on Uvalde, and we all get smart about bourbon! Here’s everything we talked about today: “Heavily outspent, gun control groups still press their case” from Marketplace “The two paths Congress could take on gun control” from Vox “Meet the Doctor Who Gave $1 Million of His Own Money to Keep His Gun Research Going” from ProPublica “What research shows on the effectiveness of gun-control laws” from The Washington Post “Exclusive: Supreme Court leak investigation heats up as clerks are asked for phone records in unprecedented move” from CNN EU’s Ban on Russian Oil Adds Stress to Region’s Economies from The Wall Street Journal
