Sounds to me like problem with the public not following the law.
To me, it’s the same as the CDC calling guns a medical problem. They go out of their way to decry and demean owner ship of guns and the behavior of people associated with gun ownership, but they do and say nothing about the behavior of homosexuals and any corresponding problem with HIV/AIDS transmission.
Well, the deterioration of the CDC over the past 40 years is heartbreaking, but there is a germ of an idea in the above quote.
It's not the behavior of gun owners that's a problem of course, but behavioral epidemiology of the Chicago shooters would be a very fruitful topic of investigation.
They won't do it, of course, but the toll of "gun violence" IS, at the root, a behavioral problem that has demographic and other characteristics that can be studied.
Yeah I would think gangbangers pose a public health risk but they do not want to offend them so they fall under a label a crisis in public health
Sounds like it is a problem where there is a culture that makes and takes its own law and dispenses its own brand of justice unto itself.
The problem is: when you yourself are engaged in illegal activity, and someone tresspasses on your action, you cannot seek legal remedies for redress.
