    I don’t see anything in the article that suggests the new office will only focus on mass shootings. While identifying and treating potential mass shooters would be great, they only account for a small percentage of overall gun deaths.

      Do you believe the overall pressures toward non-mass firearm violence are so different as to not overlap?

      I do not.

        Maybe the pressures are the same, but that has nothing to do with how you prevent him violence. Your article is super specific to mass shootings, and this office, as far as we can tell, is about all gun violence.

          Other than highlight exactly what pressures to address, you mean? Given they are the pressures behind firearm violence? Those pressures?

          … which is why I highlight and ask about that overlap between the two.
