Biden’s Surgeon General Declares Gun Violence in America a ‘Public Health Crisis’
Gateway Pundit ^

Posted on 06/26/2024 4:41:41 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

Joe Biden’s Surgeon General Vivek Murthy has declared gun violence in America to be a ‘public health crisis.’

Democrats have been desperate to pass more gun control measures and critics of this move by Murthy are calling it an end-run around the Constitution.

This is typical for the left. When they can’t get what they want through the normal legislative process, they look for other means.

I went to the employment security commission a while back to apply for Medicare A.

As all ESC offices I guess have security, some big black dude asked me if I had a weapon. I said, yes I have one. Then I said my brain. I said a gun is a tool.

He did not like my answer.

For too long presidents have used the massive power of the administrative branch to shove extra-constitutional “rules” down our throats. Hopefully the case before SCOTUS will reign in that power. But I fear that will only temporarily slow them down as they will continue to unleash their “rules” on us and we will have to fight the same battles over and over again, just like the anti-gun laws passed after SCOTUS said that gun control laws had to have a foundation in the origins of the country.

Time for a Constitutional Convention where among the several amendments proposed should be one that prohibits Congress from creating any agency, authority, board, commission, department, division, or office with the power to make any rule, decision, decree, guideline, order, or regulation that could affect, fine, or punish any person not under their employment.

All gun violence problems were solved back in 1968! The democrats themselves said so!

“Today we begin to disarm the criminal and the careless and the insane. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.”-— Lyndon Johnson signing the 1968 gun control act into law.

And Thomas J. Dodd, who wrote the 1968 gun control act using the 1938 Nazi weapons law as a pattern...

“No one can predict how many lives will be spared because of this bill, but, if the bloody record of our yesterdays is any measure, millions of future Americans will live to enjoy the promise of many peaceful tomorrows.

I am grateful to have had the opportunity to play a part in this great moment in our time.”— Thomas J. Dodd on passage of the 1968 Gun control act.

Satisfied? In stead they went to the next step in banning guns, then the next and next....When they thought they had banned A-s-s-sault Rifles they made a grab for single shot .50 Cal rifles. They will never be satisfied till they have all of them banned.

They only want to ban them for law-abiding people.

Inventory your guns! Find out which ones have a paper trail back to you! Wish I had kept all those I bought before 1968 gun control law was passed in the hysteria over the Bobby Kennedy murder by a Palestinian Immigrant.

Guns are no more to blame in murders than Ford or Toyota are in drunk driving deaths.

If you misgender someone, you are clearly unwell, and should immediately surrender your guns.

After the Democrats disarm law abiding citizens I’ll bet they don’t go so far as to disarm criminals or illegal aliens or gangbangers as they will have to still have to have an armed police force to enforce their new laws.

Good insight!

We the People must stay vigilant and not get distracted by other, less important things.

It’s getting even more ridiculous too. I recently purchased a firearm from my son who is an FFL dealer here in Kansas. Of course, I had to fill out the Form 4473. It had been quite sometime since I had purchased a firearm and evidently the form had changed during the interim. At any rate one of the questions was: am I “male, female or non-binary”. I shit you not. Complete lunacy, but I guess it matters to Wray’s FBI.

Any gun opinion that does not distinguish between criminal and legal use of guns, and ignores the constitution to boot, is utterly worthless.
Furthermore, guns are not a medical issue.

This raises its head from the swamp every so often. The basic idea is that if you can’t do it under the Constitution, declare a public emergency as an excuse to suspend the Constitution “just for the duration of the emergency,” meaning permanently. Face masks, anyone? The CDC has raised this trial balloon many times.
