MORENew Court Decision Could Restore Right To Carry In CA

by Steven Greenhut. Gun-control efforts often center on hardware,
such as limiting or banning the ownership of particular firearms

Paul Hsieh: Gun Violence Is Not A 'Public Health' Issue
Which of these things is not like the other? 1 Measles, 2 influenza, 3 tuberculosis, 4 murder. If you picked #4, “murder,” you’re right. The first three are medical diseases.
