Archie: So much for your faith in CDC. See below for yet another example of agenda laden so-called research that gave us things like AGW. But what am I saying? Of course you trust the CDC, they are going to give you the answer you want regardless of the facts. Guns and disease.......hmmmm......only the government could consider a gun a disease.....well, and left wing nuts as well.
Oh, and interestingly enough, more people are killed by doctors each year than by gun accidents which in itself is amazing considering there are only 120,000 or so doctors and tens of millions of gun owners. And by the way, that list comes from the Journal of the American Medical Association.It was only 15 years ago that Congress cut off federal funding for the Centers for Disease Control's gun research. Top CDC officials such as Patrick O'Carroll, M.D., had said things like, 'We're going to systematically build a case that owning firearms causes deaths. We're doing the most we can do, given the political realities.'" There is reason to fear that the CDC would once again politicize their research or expand exclusionary mental illness to prohibit firearm ownership for millions of Americans. |
