at best they may try to peddle the stat that it is a public health issue for the 3% of people that commit 75% of the gun violence/murders each year in the usa.

if this 3% of the population - a very specific and clear demographic - could be neutralized - 75% of the current gun violence/murders would be gone.

I guess that means the other 16% are illogical blithering idiots. The Pied Piper obozo seems of late to be blowing sour notes on his flute.

Leftists wanted it to be classified a ‘public health issue’ so that doctors could ask if and how many guns were in your home. Pediatricians are tasked with asking children about guns in their homes. Now they can’t be required to ask. It was a way to locate/catalog the guns of private citizens. BTW, no one HAS to answer any invasive questions.

This is one of the myriad of ways the progressives are attempting to make ideological disagreement a mental health issue. It mirrors that which was done in the Soviet Union.

This is what the CDC has been doing, rather than battling the disease infested illegals invading the US.

And given the 20-year reduction in violent crime that the FBI reports, even as the number of firearms in the hands of law-abiding citizens has increased, they shouldn't buy it."

The next great leap should be the deregulation of folding stocked pistols.
