#ThisIsOurLane: Doctors hit back at pro-gun group NRA
BBC News ^ | 11/12/2018

Posted on 11/12/2018 4:15:18 PM PST by MinorityRepublican

When America's powerful pro-gun group told doctors to mind their own business, the response was swift, furious and viral.

"Unless you've had someone's heart stop beating in your hands, you don't get to tell those of us who have what is and is not our 'lane'," trauma surgeon David Morris, 42, told the BBC.

The National Rifle Association's tweet on Wednesday sparked anger.

It came just hours before a gunman killed 12 people in a California bar.

"Someone should tell self-important anti-gun doctors to stay in their lane," the NRA tweeted.

And here we go as the dems and communists do a full on court grab for our guns and then the last of our liberties as they continue to try to turn us into Venezuela

Doctors should do the math.

How many people have been killed at the hands of a tyrannical government v those by deranged citizens?

People keep your guns. Doctors keep your opinions.

We're just one election away from a tyrannical government. People elect Democrats to Senate and White House. Then what do we do?

Kaiser Permanente facilities now proclaim that they’re weapon free.

Except weapons of abortion. Curettes. Vacuum asperators. Laminariae. Human pesticide RU 486.

A group of doctors guinea-pigged my grandmother and she died soon afterwards. She’s have been safer at a gun range.

.@NRA says docs should “stay in [our] lane.

My lane is a pregnant woman shot in a moment of rage by her partner. She survived because the baby stopped the bullet. Have you ever had to deliver a shattered baby? #ThisisMyLane . What’s yours? #Docs4GunSense

Tell me how you feel about the 800k+ babies delivered and shattered by abortion doctors every year, Steph.

All this “lane” talk is a blatant appeal for shortsightedness no matter WHO does it. That sort of argument won’t ever win. It shouldn’t have ever been used by the NRA — it’s harder, yes, to talk about the balance of personal protection and the deterrence of a shameless police state, it does not fit into a sound bite, but it’s the thing that really matters.

Many more people killed by medical mistakes than guns.

They just need to tweet a comparison of deaths by gun accidents to deaths by medical mistakes.

That’s not a winning argument. Doctors might ask, okay gun nuts, let 90% of us quit. Now do you want that world.

First toss out the non-American doctors who have no concerns about the Second Amendment.

Then unload the hypocritical doctors who support abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, or the Dmeonicrat Party.

Then remove the doctors who refuse to account for the lives saved by firearms.

That should take care of most of the rabid antigun kook doctors.

My doctor (who owns many guns) said it was tragic, but that’s what happens when you let deranged ticking time bombs remain at large.
