3Gun violence has been an on-going issue in the United States since the country's formation. This violence affects hundreds of thousands of people per year, including those most vulnerable: youth. A statistical analysis of gun sales in the U.S. and violence caused by guns is necessary to understand the depth of this issue. A discussion of the ease of which youth can obtain guns, legally or illegally, is another necessity. Youth offenders, specifically those who've committed mass shootings, need to be studied to comprehend how they've been able to accomplish such atrocities. How and why they have done what they've done are vital questions that should be answered to ensure that 'never again' is genuinely never again. Details, such as methods used by the offender, potential targets and motives also need to be analyzed so that identification and prevention methods can be formed. Identifying the victims of gun violence is also essential. Defining the differences between direct victimization and indirect victimization of youth is key to understanding the physical, psychological, social and financial effects of gun violence. A look into these effects within lower-income areas paints a clearer picture of just how damaging they are. A major piece in regards to gun violence and youth would be the attitudes that youth have in regards to guns. Age and easy accessibility to guns affect how youth perceive owning guns. Linking the differences in gender to how youths view and interact with guns is also essential. Types of aggression and the risk factors for both males and females could help prevention programs become more productive. Understanding why youth carry guns in the first place is also incredibly important. However, different reasons exist among the various races, so each of those reasons should be thoroughly examined. Lastly, comparing gun violence within the United States and European and Asian countries can portray the differences practices involving guns in those countries and the United States. Looking at the prevention strategies for youth in Finland, Germany, and Yemen may give way to new ideas for the United States.
