There are about 700,000 doctors in the US. They supposedly kill over 400,000 patients per year. That's nearly one for each of us every year. Hmmm.
I bet you enjoy killing people's dogs too.

The Liberal mindset is very dangerous and deadly .
Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I did not see this listed on this site...
Priorities for Research to Reduce the Threat of Firearm-Related Violence

The study is proposing creation of a comprehensive firearms ownership database, among other things. I came across it reading this...

Be afraid... be very afraid. They seem to be focused on control of guns, not correction of the mental problems violent offenders exhibit in the first place.
Indeed.
People who identify as Liberals Democrats in political affiliation overwhelmingly support far more restrictive national gun legislation as a means of reducing gun violence. That's a political and statistical fact that can't be denied. Everyone knows it won't reduce crime or stop mentally deranged individuals from committing mass murder, but it is the Liberal Democrat mindset nevertheless.
It's all smoke and mirrors though. I'm convinced their ultimate goal is registration and then confiscation. I may never see it in my lifetime, but I don't believe for one minute they will ever stop trying.

Sadly, I think they do believe it will work. I think too many people take action on the wrong problem... they act out of reflex rather than a considered thoughtful position.
This is the Center for Disease Control!
Where in their charter do they get to deviate from their stated mission and study something that isn't related to diseases?
Are they going to study airplane or car accidents next?
They should not be funded for this as violence is not disease related. Let the FBI do a study. (Oops, they already have!)
Part and parcel of Obama care used to void the 2A. Declare guns the disease vector of violence, jack up insurance rates for gun owning families / bulidings.
Note: "buildings", they could use peer pressure by 10xing insurance rates for everone in an apartment complex as they are all within the infection radius. By the way, lying about gun ownership would be tax evasion!
Far fetched?
As we read stories of violent protests and watch racial agitators continually act lawlessly accountable, we need to understand we are are in a place we’ve been before. We were here in 1968, where protests dominated the news, and where the result was the passage of sweeping gun control in the form of the Gun Control Act of 1968.
Then, as now, we had a DemocRATic president. President Lyndon Baines Johnson was more than happy to sign the measure that outlined categories of regulated firearms, made it illegal for a law-abiding citizen to buy a handgun in person from a retailer outside his or her state of residence, and placed new taxes on firearm importers, manufacturers, and dealers, among other things. In other words, he was more than happy to punish American society as whole, and shackle law-abiding citizens, rather than confront the lawlessness where it was and as it was.
Then, as now,the Second Amendment Foundation {archived by JPFO} shows polls were being used to say the American people were open to gun control while Senators and Representatives were simultaneously being bombarded by mountains of mail and constituent contacts opposing gun control.
Unlike citizens in 1968, we have to be smart enough to keep the pressure on our Senators and Representatives so they know we are not looking for a crackdown on guns, but a crackdown on lawlessness.
In the 1990s, the NRA persuaded Congress to pass legislation forbidding the CDC from using federal dollars to promote or advocate gun control.
(BUT...)
In early 2013, President Obama directed the CDC to resume gun violence research. ...
