Just when you thought it couldn't all get any weirder, the Biden administration has delivered another shock of reality.
You might think that gun control in the US is governed by the Second Amendment to the Constitution, but you're wrong, says Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy: guns are actually a “public health crisis.”
What's new: Today, for the first time in the history of my Office, I am issuing a Surgeon General's Advisory on Gun Violence. Gun violence is a public health crisis in America and poses a serious threat to the health and well-being of our nation. https://t.co/bNS7xDa96X 1/10 pic.twitter.com/1w43IMMpxA

The Surgeon General, Classify Gun violence is a psychological trauma that plagues “the mental health of our nation.” The solutions, outlined on page 32 of Murthy's RecommendationThe aim of the initiative is to turn health professionals into part of the gun control lobby and push for stricter, universal gun control — ultimately moving gun control “out of the political sphere and into the public health sphere,” Murthy said. explanation In an interview.
As you know, Murthy wants independent health authorities to implement objective, scientific solutions… just as they have done with COVID-19.

Clearly, gun violence is an American problem, but it is not a public health issue like opioid addiction or obesity. These false attempts to depoliticize gun violence are trying to make it More political. Instead of just smug liberals asking why anyone would need an AR-15 to hunt, there will be a new crop of experts telling us the science tells us we shouldn't own guns. Why? Because they are the experts.
