![Page 18: MCW Seminar Series Prevention of Suicide and Other Violence Shel Gross, MPA Mental Health America of Wisconsin April 13, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc51a28abf838ca68c1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

![Page 19: MCW Seminar Series Prevention of Suicide and Other Violence Shel Gross, MPA Mental Health America of Wisconsin April 13, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697bfc51a28abf838ca68c1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Data: Firearm Violence
• The large majority of persons with mental illness are never violent.
• Most violence towards others (95-97%) is not attributable to mental illness.

Gun Violence Restraining Orders
• Develop a mechanism to allow law enforcement officers to remove firearms when they identify someone who poses a threat to themselves or others.
• The mechanism should allow for removal without a warrant in the case of immediate threat and removal with a warrant in the case of a credible but not immediate threat to self or others.
