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 |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
