Gun violence is a leading cause of death and injury in America, and it is steadily increasing. There are now 38,000 gun deaths a year in America, a number that continues to climb. Gun deaths of young people are increasing at an especially high rate. While the Surgion General of the United States and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have acknowledged gun violence as a public health epidemic, most laws and public policies treat gun violence as a purely criminal problem. The Foundation's focus is on reframing gun violence as a public health issue.

Here it comes. Get ready to bury them in the yard before the gummint comes for them.
Same old gun grab crap.
How about we instead address medical errors which kill about 195,000 innocent people a year?
Who didn’t see this coming? Govt health care is the entre to every part of our lives. Kill it before it can start.
THIS ARTICLE IS FROM 1995
He forgot about automobiles. They kill far more. Lets ban them.
Meaning what? That Obama won’t grab ‘em as soon as he can?
That AWB will be back in springtime if he wins. Mark my words.
When they learn to spell “Surgion” correctly, I will listen to the rest of their bullshit.
1995??
Move ahead 13 years and catch the part where doctors are asking children if their parents own guns, and if the kids know where they are... then pass the information on to CPS, or other GFSE, or even the police.
Talk about privacy violations...
Sodomy is the root cause of AIDS. Let’s frame that as a national health crisis.
Cars “cause” deaths. Let’s ban cars.
Everyone who is eligible should buy a gun and learn how to use it. This will send a clear message to liberals, socialists, Democrats and other crooks.
Billy: “Yes officer Smith! Can I have condom now?”
School Police Officer Smith: “Not yet Billy, after. Billy, how many BAAAd guns does daddy have....

Sorry, but I will not will not bury my guns in the yard. I’ll bury anyone who comes for them.
What about sodomy and licentious sexual practices??? It is not only an individual rights issue it is also a health issue. Check out the CDC stats. Is the Dems going to curtail sodomy and reduce our school children’s exposure to it????!!!!!
I don’t think that is on obaba’s to do list
The same Barak Obama who claims he doesn't want to take our guns away?
He's lying about his views on gun control.
What else is Barak Hussein Obama lying about?
I was thinking the same thing !
Gun violence will continue to escalate until we learn a better way to permanently disable violent criminals who threaten us.
Your statement reminds me of a martial art, invented by the Israelis; I’ve forgotten the name, but it focus on disabling your attacker by things like joint breaking, eye-gouging, and ripping ears off.
Does that qualify for your definition of ‘permanently disabling’?
The smoking gun causes cancer. Ban it! Do it for the children! @@
I'd rather feed the hogs.
Communism and Socialism have killed 100,000,000 in less than 100 years, why does it still exist?
correct, cars kill more people each year than guns... ~42,000 died* in 2007 and ~2.5Million people were injured*.
Lets ban all cars, they are a public health concern.

“Gun violence is a leading cause of death and injury in America, and it is steadily increasing.”
When an argument starts with a lie, well.... Gun deaths aren’t on the rise, but a big proportion of the gun deaths are the result of illegal immigrants bringing their gang culture to the US. Furthermore, this statistic also includes deaths from legal self defense.
No, meaning, I think, that the article was posted as evidence of 0bama’s long-standing record of gun-grabbing. And yes, the AWB, and much more onerous legislation will be back with a ‘Rat victory this fall.
The stakes are high, indeed...
If you really want to be safe, stop eating and breathing.
Yup. All the breathless reports about war and the economy will vanish if Obama wins, to be replaced with endless media stories about gun violence. And the MSM death spiral will stop, as the federal government will begin “subsidizing” the news.
How am I going to believe a website that mistakes i for e, when they’re four keys apart?
