Abstract:
Understanding the life years lost by assault and suicide due to firearms among white and black Americans can help us understand the race-specific and intent-specific firearm mortality burden and inform prevention programmes. The objective was to assess national and race-specific life expectancy loss related to firearms in the USA due to assault and suicide. We used firearm mortality data available from Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research to calculate the life expectancy loss between 2000 and 2016 separately for assaults and suicides among white and black Americans.

Abstract:
Firearms have accompanied humans for many centuries, and over their development, loading systems for bullets and cartridges, the chemical composition of propellant charges, and the types, models, and designs of weapons and ammunition have evolved. A groundbreaking moment was the unification of the bullet with the casing, which allowed part of the gunpowder gases to be vented through a side port in the barrel. This invention led to the development of machine guns. Firearms have been and continue to be used for various purposes, such as personal protection, protection of people and property, hun

Abstract:
In the United States and other parts of the world, recreational firearm shooting is a popular sport that puts the hearing of the shooter at risk. Peak sound pressure levels (SPLs) from firearms range from ∼140 to 175 dB. The majority of recreational firearms (excluding small-caliber 0.17 and 0.22 rifles and air rifles) generate between 150 and 165 dB peak SPLs. High-intensity impulse sounds will permanently damage delicate cochlear structures, and thus individuals who shoot firearms are at a higher risk of bilateral, high-frequency, noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) than peer groups who do not

Abstract:
High-level impulse noise exposure from small caliber firearms presents a significant risk of noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) for an unprotected ear. The most common method to reduce the level of noise is to provide hearing protection to both the shooter(s) and potential observers such as firing range instructors or bystanders. Not all hunters and shooters consistently use correctly fit hearing protection. Firearm suppressors provide an engineering noise control that can mitigate a significant portion of the NIHL risk.

Firearms produce peak sound pressure levels (peak SPL) between ∼130 and 175 dB peak SPL, creating significant risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in those exposed to firearm noise during occupational, recreational, and/or military operations. Noise-induced tinnitus and hearing loss are common in military service members, public safety officers, and hunters/shooters. Given the significant risk of NIHL due to firearm and other noise sources, there is an interest in, and demand for, interventions to prevent and/or treat NIHL in high-risk populations.

Abstract:
The United States dominates most policy debates and academic studies of gun violence, but this dominance overshadows the often much higher rate of firearm-related injury and death inflicted in its southern neighbors. This chapter explores guns and gun violence in Latin America and the Caribbean, where some countries experience war-level death rates from firearms despite considerably lower rates of gun ownership in those countries. The chapter presents data—which is unfortunately often scarce, incomplete, or dated—on the region as a whole and on specific countries, identifying trends but also distinct and important variation, both geographically and historically. This variation challenges simplistic explanations in terms of the region’s violent past or an enduring “culture of violence.” The discussion thus then turns to the elucidation of factors that influence the incidence of gun violence, from poverty, urbanization, gangs, and drug trafficking to concerns about weak states and personal security. Finally, the chapter shares some of the gun policies and regulations in the region, surveying the steps that countries have taken—and others like its great northern neighbor can take—to curtail the damage and loss of life attributed to guns.

Abstract:
The history of the American bison (or American buffalo) is linked to the U.S. government’s acrimonious relationship with Native Americans on the Western Plains. Buffalo hunting was a central aspect of the economy and society of the Plains Indians who lived on the grasslands of North America. Buffalo provided meat, and the bulky robes made from their pelts were invaluable for anyone traveling across the cold vastness of the Great Plains in winter. In addition, buffalo hunting was a spiritual practice for Plains Indians. By the start of the 1800s, however, the buffalo was under increasing pressure. After the European introduction of the horse and firearms, Native Americans were able to start exploiting the buffalo to a much greater degree than was previously possible. They became active participants in the increasingly lucrative buffalo market, centered on hides and leathers. The North American buffalo’s population began to collapse. This rapid decline was accelerated by a range of factors, including climatic changes, habitat loss, competition from horses and cattle, and the expansion of the ranch economy. White hunters arrived on the Plains in the late 1800s and brought industrial-scale hunting practices and technologies with them. Their arrival sounded the death knell of the buffalo. Repeating rifles, refrigeration, and railroads all enabled these hunters to kill off millions of buffaloes with startling speed, reducing a population that had once been in the millions to fewer than a thousand.

Abstract:
The Central and Northern Plains are home to many of the peoples popularly considered quintessential Native Americans. First brought to the widespread attention of Europeans and Euro-Americans as the ‘noble savages’ of nineteenth-century romantic paintings and travel accounts, they were later stereotyped in dime novels and Hollywood movies as an inconvenient—and ultimately removed—barrier to white expansion and settlement. Only relatively recently has that image given way to the more rounded, if still over-romanticized, one seen in films like Dances with Wolves. However, the extrapolation of Plains equestrian groups as a generalization for all Native Americans is not the reason to focus on them here. rather, it is because of the great wealth of evidence—ethnographic, historical, and archaeological—that relates to the impacts on them of the horse. Those impacts affected village-based farming communities along the Missouri river and its tributaries as well as the mobile societies of the open grasslands. Using evidence from both, I look at how having horses affected the ways in which people hunted bison, moved themselves and their goods, and structured their use of the landscape, as well as at how changing patterns of warfare and trade influenced the broader organization of society. These topics also relate to several broader issues. One is the relationship between the horse and two other agents of change: the spread of firearms and the involvement of Native peoples in trading furs and bison robes to Europeans. Another concerns the different responses to the horse by those who used it to enhance a mobile hunting way of life and those who sought to integrate it within an economy and social system in which horticulture and permanent settlements were paramount. A third relates to the ecological constraints on people’s ability to keep horses on the Plains: what were they? What was done to mitigate them? And how did they affect the region’s history between the initial acquisition of horses in the early 1700s and the loss of independence that followed the Battle of the Little Big Horn in 1876 and culminated with the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890?

Abstract The author’s experience with a silencer-fitted weapon provides the introduction to the history and consequences of gun silencers, also called “suppressors.” A little-noticed but concerted effort to roll back state and federal silence regulation frames this examination of the history, justification, and consequences of silencer regulation, which spread across the states from the time of its invention in the early 1900s, culminating in a nationwide registration system enacted in 1934. Deregulation advocates argue for less regulated access to silencers as a means to protect the hearing of shooters and bystanders. Yet firearms noise also serves a safety function. Also excavated is the seemingly lost history behind the movement to regulate silencers from a century ago. Various means for protecting shooter hearing are examined in the light of this debate.

A good student, Malcolm nevertheless got into trouble early. He admired the energy and intelligence of criminals and soon became involved with the numbers racket and drugs. It did not help that his mother was committed to a mental institution and that having lost both parents he was placed in foster care. Living with his sister failed to provide enough stability for the unruly teenager, and at the age of twenty-one he was sent to prison for burglary, larceny, breaking and entering, and carrying a firearm.

Abstract Head trauma is the major cause of accidental death in the United States, particularly in the juvenile and young adult groups.11,17,18,32 Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) accounts for a death rate of 16.9 per 100,000 population per year.44 Motor vehicle accidents (57%), firearms injuries (14%), and traumatic falls (12%) are the most frequent causes. Males are three times more likely to die from brain injury–associated death than females. Head injuries are responsible for 200 to 300 hospital admissions per 100,000 population per year in the United States.6 Most of the admissions last only a few days, and the patients are admitted for clinical observation. Head injury is not only a cause of death but also a cause of serious financial burden to the society providing treatment and care to these patients. Lost labor and reduced productivity to the society further add to the negative impact. The cost of head trauma to the society is estimated to be billions of dollars annually. The majority of the patients suffering head injuries are considered to have mild head injury. Most patients recover fully from mild TBI, but 15% to 29% of patients with mild TBI may have significant neurocognitive problems.27 Common symptoms include attention deficit, deficit in working memory and speed of information processing; headaches, dizziness, and irritability.

Abstract The Greene family was driving through Sicily at night when they were attacked. A group of bandits brandishing firearms pulled alongside the Greenes’ car. As the family tried to flee, the bandits opened fire. After a chase, the bandits pulled away, and the Greenes came upon an automobile accident with police and ambulance present. At first relieved, they stopped their car to report their brush with lawlessness. When they opened the back door, however, they found that a bullet had pierced the skull of their 6-year-old son, Nicholas. Two days of intensive care did not reverse the fact that their child was brain dead. When they told this story on National Public Radio, 3 years after the event, few of the millions of listeners could hold back tears. Mr. and Mrs. Greene lost a life very precious to them on that Sicilian highway. But what happened next seems nothing short of miraculous. By donating their son’s organs, the Greenes ignited an international movement that has saved the lives of countless people. Their story provides a dramatic illustration of the opportunities for positive thought and emotion that are embedded within even the most tragic circumstances. And when you hear them tell it, as a simple matter of fact, an attitude of, “Well, wouldn’t anyone have done the same?” we know that the warmth we feel is not due to the way they told the story but from how the story itself touches us.
