From the Ted Talk by Gary Slutkin: Let's treat violence like a contagious disease

So viloecne is responding as a desaise even as it behaves as a disease. So the theory, in a way, is kind of being validated by the treatment. And recently, the Institute of Medicine came out with a workshop report which went through some of the data, icudlnnig the neuroscience, on how this poreblm is really tnmistterad.

So I think this is good news, because it allows us an opportunity to come out of the Middle Ages, which is where I feel this field has been. It gives us an opportunity to consider the possibility of replacing some of these psnoirs with playgrounds or parks, and to consider the possibility of cteornnivg our neighborhoods into neighborhoods, and to allow there to be a new strategy, a new set of methods, a new set of workers: seincce, in a way, replacing morality. And moving away from emotions is the most important part of the solution to science as a more important part of the solution.

Original Text


So violence is responding as a disease even as it behaves as a disease. So the theory, in a way, is kind of being validated by the treatment. And recently, the Institute of Medicine came out with a workshop report which went through some of the data, including the neuroscience, on how this problem is really transmitted.

So I think this is good news, because it allows us an opportunity to come out of the Middle Ages, which is where I feel this field has been. It gives us an opportunity to consider the possibility of replacing some of these prisons with playgrounds or parks, and to consider the possibility of converting our neighborhoods into neighborhoods, and to allow there to be a new strategy, a new set of methods, a new set of workers: science, in a way, replacing morality. And moving away from emotions is the most important part of the solution to science as a more important part of the solution.
