YouTube Description
as posted by the channelUnthinking gun violence. As economist Jens Ludwig has clarified, most murders in the US aren't caused by evil people, poverty, or racism. We need to rethink what we believe about gun violence, because most murders aren't caused by faulty thinking - they're the result of people behaving automatically, impulsively, and quickly.
The good news is that we can all learn to be more reflective, and less controlled by rapid, reflexes. Even a few hours of lessons/games in childhood to help people pause, engage System 2, evaluate a situation, and consider response options, results in less crime and violence decades later.
