Could Public Health Really Address ‘Gun Violence’? – Doctors for Responsible Gun Ownership

Doctors ‘should’ focus n Medical concerns.
2nd Amendment covers ‘Gun Violence’
Just My Two Cents...

Doctors have enough to do, society needs to address the causes of all violence, not the instructions used.

An excellent, insightful article that gives the lie to attempts to re-categorize "gun violence" into a public health matter instead of a subject of criminology. They don't do so with a truly scientific investigation of the "epidemic" of gun violence.
The author hoists those fans of "Caduceus Wild" by their own petard, demonstrating how they attempt to explain the so-called epidemic of gun violence by a discredited "miasma" theory of epidemics, that assumes there is "something in the air" (the presence of guns) that causes gun violence throughout civil society in an even distribution.
That foolish assumption, and the targeting of all guns owned by all the population, in all the areas of this vast nation as the "cause" of gun violence, is effectively punctured by a basic statistical observation:

"That Fifty percent of gunshot deaths occur in 2% of its [the USA's] counties. When the focus is put on these counties, the gunshot deaths are concentrated in a small fraction of the neighborhoods, and even at certain street corners."

That the victims and perps of gun violence are primarily the young, male, minority group members, living in the inner cities, with association in gangs, drugs, and crime of all sorts, seems to be an inconvenient truth to the gun-grabbers, to be ignored lest they be accused of "racism".
