"Is gun regulation a public health issue?"Sure. It leads to lead poisoning.

Some good comments after the poll:

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Lack of a gun can be bad for your health.

So are automobiles. More people are killed by automobiles than by guns. In either case it is the person doing the driving and shooting of the gun that causes the harm. Ban automobiles. It is good for the environment.

“Is gun regulation a public health issue?”
That’s a two sided question.

Welcome to FR!
Guns are not a health issue. But crime is certainly a public health issue. Criminal enterprise is more far reaching into public health and welfare than any legal firearm could ever impact.

I was asked the question of whether or not I own guns in a recent health assessment I took. That was the first time I had been asked this question and it set me off! This kind of “nanny-ism” is just creeping everywhere now. How do we stop it?

It sort of depends on perspective. To an ER crew a gangbanger bleeding on a gurney from being shot while attempting to rape and assault somebody is a patient. The detachment is professionally necessary. To me he’s a target.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys...been an off-and-on reader for a while, and I now find myself in Chicagoland, so I figured it’s about time I start contributing to the fight against 2A bans.
Hope it’s all right if I plug illinoiscarry.com.
