Basically, if these research groups did do health research into gun violence, and documented mental behavior case study....what it’d drive is citizens to push for states to formally put nutcases (as we did prior to the 1960s) into state mental facilities. I think if you just asked a straight question to the general public....more than sixty percent would readily agree to putting disturbed people away who are deemed a threat.

I doubt if that’s the intention of the anti-gun crowd, but such data on the table would drive public opinion on this.

The end result justifies the means for them.

Like eating a good steak and eating polluted lettuce. coming to the conclusion that eating steak makes you crap your pants.

Thing is though... This gun/health study has been done before several times with the same results, and the results were surprisingly honest. The results were not what they wanted to hear at all so now they are going to try and pay for new more favorable results.

Now, we have Red Flag laws so that if there’s a nutcase in your home and a judge finds out, all the guns in your home are seized by the police.

They can make up all the “research” they want.

But at the the end of the day, Molon Labe.

That’s what we have them for: THAT day.

This is a smoke screen by the anti gun democrats. they want to get the CDC to declare guns or gun violence a health problem where they can confiscate all the guns from law abiding citizens. That would be a real health crisis for the law abiding people when only MS13 types will have guns.
