When someone gets involved with guns and gangs at an early age, it can change the way that person thinks. Earlier this summer, reporter Rob Wildeboer talked to a man who said that shooting became “like a drug” for him, and spent decades chasing the high he felt the first time he shot a gun. Neurobiologist Peggy Mason and comedian Aaron Freeman are co-hosts of the podcast “Brain Buddies,” and they were interested in what was going on inside of that shooter’s brain. They talk about the underlying neuroscience of what happens when you shoot someone, what it means to call shooting an “addiction,” and why understanding neurobiology can help us begin to address Chicago’s gun violence. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
