Work w/commun groups or your hospital to provide services to reduce violent reinjury NNHVIP @@CureViolence @jonessurgery @DrJtrauma #EASTjc

Work w/ elected officials to strengthen gun licensing restrictions, join orgs that work toward that goal @jonessurgery @DrJtrauma #EASTjc

@vegansurgeon @DrJtrauma I don't mean to be obtuse or rude, but how? What actions do we take? What interventions do we make? #EASTjc

I would address guns as a huge part of the problem of excess homicides, suicides, and unintentional deaths. @DrJtrauma #EASTjc

I would continue to fight against structure inequalities and de-normalize acceptability of violence. @DrJtrauma #EASTjc

OK. Time for the rubber to meet the road @vegansurgeon. You've studied this as objectivly as anyone. What would you do? And why? #EASTjc
