Nearly 4 years ago we lost our friend and teammate Ronnie Ortiz Jr. to a senseless act of #gunviolence . After countless hours of work and dedication turning tragedy into community, we came together yesterday— friends and players, family members, dedicated local officials and volunteers, survivors — to rename #mccarrenpark #brooklyn field 2 in his honor. by @jonathanmmetzl

For years, many people on my side of the aisle believed that better public health evidence about guns would naturally lead to better policy.

But what if the gun debate was never only about evidence?

My new article in The Milbank Quarterly asks why gun politics became so polarized in the United States — and why Americans increasingly speak about public health through entirely different moral and political frameworks.

I ultimately argue that durable solutions for addressing violence must go beyond legislation alone and also address the social, economic, and infrastructural conditions that shape whether people feel safe in their daily lives.
