The single most consistent determinant/predictor of mass violence is domestic or intimate partner violence. Almost every mass shooter in the United States has a prior history of domestic or intimate partner violence. The most effective intervention to prevent mass violence is to prevent domestic violence.

When survivors of gender based violence come forward to tell our truths, we are telling the truth of how people abuse power. Sexual and domestic violence is about power. It has nothing to do with sex, or attraction. It is about power. If someone who has a history of abusing power is elevated to a position of more power, they will enact mass violence.

Survivors are the prophets and oracles of this society. We carry the true toll of this country’s legacy. In telling our stories, we are warning you about what will to come to pass. We are trying to save all of our lives.
