OMDG asks:
What's your take on the Emily Oster interview of the ED Dr at brown about gun violence? https://emilyoster.substack.com/p/understanding-gun-violence
I am sorry to disappoint, but sadly the interview is only available to paid subscribers and Emily Oster really does not need my money. (She and Jesse make waaaaay more than DH and I do.)
From what I can tell, the interview is with Megan Ranney, so I looked to see what else she's been saying on media recently. Here's a Boston Globe article.
Ranney said she believes all of the actions being taken by the Biden Administration on gun violence are significant and important, all for different reasons. But the investment in community violence programs is key, she said.
Everything she says in the article seems to be sensible and to be following our best knowledge about preventing gun violence and gun deaths at this time. She's also got a Ted talk, and many other interviews online that aren't pay to access. I think she knows what she is talking about. I assume she doesn't say anything wild and crazy in the Emily Oster interview.
