Dr. Barnhorst: the mentally ill are generally not more prone to be violent than those without mental illness. But the link between substance abuse and violence is much more clear. @ASLforGVP #utpol

Great meeting of Legislators for Gun Violence Prevention @NYLGVP! NY has strong laws but we all agree: This is no time for half measures. We need comprehensive legislation to close several loopholes & keep guns from those likely to harm themselves or others.

Most Americans back strong gun laws—just ask Gallup, Quinnipiac, CBS, CNN. But… those who want WEAK laws are STILL more likely to contact elected officials. If YOU want strong gun laws, call your US & state reps! RT if you think others should call too!washingtonpost.com/news/the-…
