If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988 or text “HOPELINE” to the National Crisis Text Line at 741741.
When you think about gun deaths, what comes to mind?
Whatever the narrative, in Wisconsin, it probably revolves around Milwaukee. You may think of the homicides that plague some neighborhoods.
Or maybe it’s an accidental shooting, after a young child gets ahold of a gun that wasn’t locked up.
Or when a police officer shoots someone, or is shot, in the line of duty; or when someone kills another person after being attacked.
