AI synopsis
The discussions highlight various perspectives on the findings presented in the article, particularly regarding the disproportionate homicide rates among Black males. Posts like 'the murder rate of young black males is 20-fold plus that of their peers' reflect a serious consideration of racial and socio-economic factors. The tone is often urgent and analytical, with phrases emphasizing public health implications, such as 'we need policies which stem the flow of illegal firearms into communities of color,' indicating an acknowledgment of the article's broader impact on societal issues.
Many discussions reflect an understanding of the article's findings, though some users express skepticism towards conclusions drawn about firearm violence.
The prevalence of firearm violence in the U.S. and its implications evoke strong curiosity and relevance, particularly concerning demographic differences in violence rates.
While users frequently reference statistics and engage in analysis of the findings, some perspectives suggest superficial engagement with deeper systemic issues.
Most contributors recognize the significant implications of the publication, suggesting it could influence public health discussions and policy.
Firearm-related injuries are among the 5 leading causes of death for people ages 1-64 in the US. Our review article, “The Epidemiology of Firearm Violence in the Twenty-First Century United States” by G. Wintemute, discusses trends and implications. #criminaljusticemonth
A4: Firearm homicide is the leading cause of death for young Black men aged 15-34. We need policies which stem the flow of illegal firearms into communities of color. #PublicHealth4GVP #NPHW https://t.co/wc92hpU9mD https://t.co/3kmgA8k1EP

@parody1323 @davidhogg111 Wrong. E.g., the murder rate of young black males is "20-fold plus" that of their peers, that of Hispanics, about 4-fold-plus. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@rattyrn @AshleyGWinter "Homicide risk is concentrated to a remarkable degree among Black males... At ages 20–29 in 2012, the firearm homicide rate for Black males was at least five times higher than that for Hispanic males and at least 20 times that for White males." https://t.co/hoDITjqorS

@taqiyyamcknbrd @SasQuatchamo1 Do you ever wonder why the US has uniquely high rates of homicide among Western industrialised countries? Literally 20 to 240 times as high as other countries? While its rates of physical assault are similar to those of other countries. It's the guns. https://t.co/xHzI5xlroX
Although mass killings get the most press, by far, the main cause of firearm deaths in 2015 was suicide, not combat fatalities, accidents, or homicides, according to the CDC and The Epidemiology of Firearm Violence in the 21st Century.

@imagnoreligion @RyanMarino @NRA Better job than you think. Dallas county suburbs, where I grew up have some of the lowest homicide rates in the country. E.g., in 2011, Plano had a homicide rate of 0.4/100K, less that half that of the UK. Most gun homicides are inner city https://t.co/hoDITjqorS
@NewtownAction @10TV @ohioceasefire "Homicide risk is concentrated to a remarkable degree among Black males through much of the life span. in 2012, the firearm homicide rate for Black males was at least five times higher than for Hispanic males and at least 20 times that for White males." https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@RealCedricDark @tmprowell @aafp My reference notes that the murder rate of young black males is "20-fold plus" that of their peers, that of Hispanics, about 4-fold-plus. I assume this is because of "poverty and racism" but admit I cannot prove this. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@ChrisMurphyCT Poverty, not guns. "At ages 20–29 in 2012, the firearm homicide rate for Black males was at least five times higher than that for Hispanic males and at least 20 times that for White males." https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@RealCedricDark @tmprowell @aafp Don't forget the really big variables, poverty and racism. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@xOldJarHeadx @jeffbradley @JoJoFromJerz "Compared with other industrialized nations, the United States has uniquely high mortality rates from firearm violence." Ergo it's the opposite of what you state. https://t.co/lIAmiFd8H2
@ChrisMurphyCT Mainly, a problem of inner city poverty, not firearms. But if you admit it, you might have to do something about it. Thus, the murder rate of young black males is "20-fold plus" that of their peers, that of Hispanics, about 4-fold-plus. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@MichaelShurkin Depends. Mostly due to poverty, the murder rate of young black males is "20-fold plus" that of their peers, that of Hispanics, about 4-fold-plus. Outside these groups, you are safe enough. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@Everytown Take out Homicides secondary to urban poverty and the US homicide rate becomes "European". "Homicide risk is concentrated to a remarkable degree among Black males through much of the life span (Figure 5). https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@ReverendWashy @SteeleDaddy Almost all of that "11,000" is young minority males. Leave them and traditional southern whites out, the US homicide rate is almost European. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk

@DonPlummer9 @lindyli Leave out the 20-fold + greater homicide rate among young minority males and the US homicide rate is practically "European". Besides which, nothing works. So all you do is elect Republicans. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@DonPlummer9 @lindyli Everything has been tried. Nothing works. All you have done is alienate the Dem's working class base and elect Republicans. Anyway, a problem of poverty, not guns. The homicide rate of young black males is "20-fold plus" that of their peers,. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk
@JohnsonWonky @_Peace_Love_US Only if you count gang shootings. Middle class people flatly don't shoot each other. Gun violence has much to do with poverty and little to do with guns per se. https://t.co/hoDITjpQCk /1
@cindybryce61 @_Peace_Love_US Because the overwhelming majority of firearms crimes are committed by young minority males, such measures are inherently racist. https://t.co/hoDITjqorS

@MrEugeneStoner @PricevHasty @nationalrifle Yeah? I figured as much. Just like I am laughing at you and your ammosexuality. https://t.co/54riOgMgRn
White male population sees the most increase in suicides by firearm compared to other groups. Anti gun lobby like @teamtrace @MomsDemand and others will never explicitly mention this as it is not politically correct. https://t.co/R8NDWnWkE6
There is a reason why anti gun lobby always tries to conflate suicides with homicides using firearm: the suicides are increasing while homicides are going down. From Epidemiology of Firearm Violance in 21st Century in US. https://t.co/R8NDWnWkE6
@TheGraviter @everygoodman @jacksontkatz Compared to other Western, industrialised countries. The US has uniquely high rates of firearm homicide, far higher than other countries’ rates. See p. 15 of this: https://t.co/xHzI5x3iaP https://t.co/yyDrmak1uJ
Absolutely not just an urban issue, but a good time to remind folks that "injury by firearm" as a cause for mortality could be accidental, suicide, or homicide. Suicides are the leading cause of firearm mortality nationally, and their rate is growing - see https://t.co/FVjbTmhaW1 https://t.co/teKOft8LAo
