What does the list of incidents discussed at the ceasefire meeting illustrate about the prevalence of and nature of violence

The list of incidents discussed at the CeaseFire meeting show how the prevalence of and nature of violence is widespread. The people discussed range from 12 year-olds to adults. Many of the reasons are for revenge because someone felt wronged. Even mentioned in the list is a CeaseFire colleague who wants to get even for the beating of his two sons. This shows that the desire to pull out a gun is not held by only a small group of individuals. It also shows the importance of this group and it's efforts to mediate disputes.
