Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the director of the Centers for Disease Control, wants her agency to establish gun violence as an urgent public health crisis. “Now is the time — it’s pedal to the metal time,” she told CNN in a new interview.
“The scope of the problem is just bigger than we’re even hearing about, and when your heart wrenches every day you turn on the news, you’re only hearing the tip of the iceberg,” Walensky said.
Congress stopped funding the CDC’s gun violence research in 1997 under pressure from the National Rifle Association, and the agency’s directors in the time since have largely stayed mum on the issue until now.

I’m not worried in the least.
The CDC doesn’t get a vote in this matter.

Test everyone’s guns for “COVID”. I’m sure most of them will test “positive”.

They can start by retrieving the weapons from the Taliban.

I guess I could quarantine them, just to be on the “safe” side.

the left are desperately trying to get biden to declare a ‘gun emergency’ or ‘violence emergency’ or some such nonsense, so that the CDC can get involved and create rules that states will then implement ‘for the safety of all’ according to them-
In NY- cuomo and ilk falsely declared there was an “Imminent Need” to pass strict gun control laws called the ‘safe act’- they justified passing it by claiming that the need was so dire for the ‘health and safety of the public’ that they had to pass it-

Does the Center for Disease Control have a SWAT team, like most of the other government agencies????
Well, even if they do, they are going to need their own army, not just a SWAT team.

Every one of my firearms gets a vote. Funny how that works.

The Biden regime is not amused by non-compliance; all must bend the knee! Time to make it impossible for the ‘peasants’ to refuse.

How will they keep people from “turning in” a great many of their bullets, first?

The mass shooting are mental health issues. That’s not the CDC mission. That’s a different federal agency.

I’m going to be calling in all my guns as stolen. Either that or I have had an unfortunate boating accident. Darn.

Well, they can somehow say that landlords can’t kick people out for being deadbeats. At least until recently, no thanks to the pinko Supreme Court. I wouldn’t put anything past any government agency.
