Love, Not Guns: A Case For Changing the Focus of America’s Gun Debate

Discussion surrounding America’s violence problem often centers on the gun debate, an issue with no acceptable solution for half the population. Author Jay Breitlow, D.C., who lost his father in a school shooting, makes the case that addressing issues completely separate from the gun debate may provide more sustainable answers. Dr. Breitlow takes a comprehensive look at the benefits that supportive home environments and enhanced mental healthcare can have on troubled individuals, and suggests grassroots changes you can make in your home and community to eliminate violence. Community tragedies, such as the one that took Dale Breitlow’s life when Jay was in ninth grade, have become shockingly commonplace. Dr. Breitlow is convinced positive change is possible. His vision focuses on creating systems centered on one fundamental emotion: Love.
