      In a city of 8.6 million people, in a country flooded with guns, this is pretty incredible. New York is getting something very, very right.https://twitter.com/patrick_sharkey/status/1052542751911407616 …

      Not one person was shot in New York City this past weekend. The city government, NYPD, hundreds of community organizations, teachers, coaches, and families all deserve credit for what's happening here. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny-metro-zero-shootings-weekend-nypd-monahan-20181015-story.html …

      In 1990, New York City had 2,245 murders. Last year? 290. (The city's population grew by 1.3 million in that time.)pic.twitter.com/jWktiV5YFc

          All, if you're interested in this debate, FYI: I started a website, FB group and small organization dedicated to studying gun violence in Ch back when I was working at UC. I could not *believe* the amount of violent threats that started pouring into my inbox. 1/

          I got dozens of threats from people. I wouldn't say that any of them were really credible. I didn't call the police or anything, but there were people on Facebook who didn't even bother to hide their identity who would threaten violence.

          I mean, why did you get threats? Who were the threat-makers and why did they care?

          I used FB ads to grow the group. I suppose that they saw them and told me what to do with my little advocacy group. Purely anecdotally: most were gun nuts Several "liked" gun manufacturers, posed with guns, etc (the ones who didn't hide their identities.)

          Does manslaughter/self-defense count in murder statistic? Examples in podcast were not deaths now that I think of it though.

          I'm from Chicago. The "look at Chicago!" gun rights defense is incredibly tiresome, yet we're negating the progress made in New York. Chicago violence involves so many issues. I would say that Chicago has a gang, policing and *geography* problem first, and a gun problem second.

          I want to know the role an aging population plays in this. It probably doesn’t matter for NY (or maybe it does I don’t really know) but it has been nagging me for years now, how much has the violent crime drop been connected with aging population, if at all.

          Geography, as in, my former home is surrounded by states with some of the laxest gun policies in the country. People get caught coming back from Indiana with trucks filled with guns from straw purchasers.

          New York is doing some good work. Should study what they are doing and replicate it.
