One of every 10,000 Americans will be murdered this year. More Americans were murdered from 1970 through 1974 than were killed in Vietnam (越南). Since 1990, more than 800,000 American civilians (平民) have been killed by gunfire—more than the total number of casualties (伤亡) in U.S. wars from the Revolution to Indochina.
Two-thirds of all murders in the United States are committed (犯罪) with guns, 92 percent of them handguns. Murder rates are highest in these parts of America with the largest percentage of gun owners, lowest in those with the smallest. Since 1968, the murder rate in the United States has more than doubled.
These statistics (统计数字) were culled (拣选) from Dr. Donald T. Lunder's recent monograph (专论), Murder and Madness (available) from the Stamford, Calif.. Much of what he reports has been noted before by others, but rarely if ever has anyone probed so comprehensively (综合性地) the American way of killing.
As a psychiatrist (精神病学家) who has worked in the police-court-prison system, Lunder notes that the average murderer today is only 20 years old, that 94 percent of all murders are intra-racial, that when they are not, blacks are more often the victims (受害人) of whites, that less than 30 percent of murder victims are strangers to their killers, that the South has the highest murder rate (3.6 per 100,000 that same year), that most murders are committed with little or no planning, that most murderers are easily apprehended (逮捕) and readily confess. (承认)
In the majority of homicides (杀人者) the killers had been drinking before hand. Since most homicides arise in the context of a quarrel and involve the most readily available weapon, it is worth surmising (猜测) what would happen if guns were not readily available. Knives—now the second most common weapon-would presumably (大概) become the most likely weapon in the typical assault (袭击) between spouses, lovers, neighbors, etc. In fact the death rate for all victims assaulted with guns is as much as five times that of those assaulted with knives.

Ryan Howes, a clinical psychologist from California, says "Forgiveness is a sensitive act that can feel like it opens us up to more pain． But we need to have a way to process and let go of the effects of injury, or we risk serious physical and emotional consequences．"
People who forgive tend to have better relationships, feel happier and more optimistic, and overall, enjoy better psychological well-being． 1. It's a difficult process．
There's no single guidebook for forgiveness, though several experts sell their own methods．
Howes suggests focusing on four elements:
Express the emotion． Let yourself feel hurt and angry． Express it to the person who made you feel that way． 2. Write a letter; you don't need to send it． Shout your emotions at the top of your lungs while you're in the car, alone, with the windows down．
__3. We want explanations ?even if we don't agree with them． "Was it a misunderstanding? Were you mad at me? Some sort of cognitive framework （认知框架） is necessary, even if you don't like the reason．"
Rebuild safety．4. That might mean an apology, reassurance from the person in question, distance or stronger boundaries．
Let go． Perhaps it's the hardest part: making a conscious decision not to hold a grudge （怨恨）．
If you're in a relationship, this means not bringing up past wrongs． By letting go, you give up
your role as the victim and become equals again． 5.
A．Otherwise, talk to a friend or even an empty chair
B．Control your feelings
C．Understand why
D．Before you forgive, you need to feel reasonably sure that the act won't reoccur
E．Still, no one ever said forgiveness was easy
F．It's a promise to yourself to stop feeling hurt and to fully move on
G．You may feel helpless, or like life is meaningless
