Public Mass Shootings: Counterfactual Trend Analysis of the Federal Assault Weapons Ban
The US Congress passed the Federal Assault Weapons Ban (FAWB), also known as the Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act, on August 25, 1994, and President Bill Clinton signed the act into law on September 13, 1994 [15]. The ban was set to expire after 10 years in 2004, and Congress did not renew it. The ban prohibited the sale and manufacture of certain semiautomatic weapons and magazines that could hold more than 10 rounds [16].

Based on previous investigations with deidentified CTL data and national events [8-10], we hypothesized that conversations mentioning firearms would increase in the days following the mass shooting. Because work has not examined the broader effects of indirect exposure to mass shootings on mental health, we did not have a specific hypothesis about how social and mental health–related stressors may change before and after a mass shooting event.

Many ADRD caregivers face difficult decisions about when and how to address the sensitive topic of in-home firearms. In the United States, an estimated 33%-60% of people with ADRD have a firearm in the home [4,5], and 38% of ADRD caregivers identify firearms as an issue to address [4].

Diagnostic (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision) codes in the NVSS identify mortality from accidental firearm discharges, assaults (homicides) by discharge of firearms, and intentional self-harm (suicides) by firearms. Data are collected nationwide using standardized forms and a set of common procedures to ensure comparability of data across locations.

The presence of firearms is a known hazard. Occupations that require firearm use have been connected to elevated risk of fatality by suicide. Data from the northeastern United States found that 13% of suicide attempts resulted in fatality; however, 91% of suicide attempts by firearms were lethal [27]. Suicides among US police officers, veterans, and members of the armed forces have come under particular scrutiny.

This finding may possibly be the result of a heightened interest in purchasing firearms and/or ammunition for one’s protection against the apparent public safety concerns raised by the mass shooting [43]. Additionally, it is possible that some individuals may anticipate an increase in regulatory control over access to firearms as a ramification of the Sandy Hook incident and as such prompt purchase of firearms before any such legislative action is passed.
