The Pulse

Gun Violence


Listen Later

Sunday, June 12, 2016 marked the largest mass shooting in U.S. history. It also marked one of many mass shootings around the globe in the last year.

14 killed in San Bernardino, California on December 2, 2015.130 killed in Paris, France on November 13, 2015.9 killed at Umpqua Community College in Oregon on October 1, 2015.

This is by no means a comprehensive list…but as these shootings have happened, we’ve had conversations on our show about grief, gun technology, even the epidemiology of violence.

What you’re about to hear are archived interviews – about past shootings – that are still applicable today, as the country remembers the 49 people killed in Orlando.

This is a podcast extra from The Pulse.
