Doctors who deal with gun violence victims if anyone are uniquely qualified to talk on gun violence...

NRA was stupid to call them out like that and it shows their influence to try and quiet down opinions against guns.

here is an example of Dr tweeting pics (graphic)

I don't think the NRA should have commented just like the insurance giants stay mum about the carnage on the streets that is much greater and far more deadly every day in America than gun violence.



I think we all know that getting shot is terrible and if it does not kill you then it can certainly disfigure you or leave you with lasting issues but most of us have more fear of being involved in an car accident then being shot.



The NRA should stay quiet on such issues but continue to protect the Second amendment and promote the safe use of firearms.

Thumbs down Nra

The NRA jumped the shark when they started promoting Ted (poo-pants) Nugent about a dozen years ago.

I gave up my NRA membership back then because, as a veteran, I can't be in the same club as a chickensh*t like him.

tRump likes him, though.

I'm curious if the outspoken and opinionated NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch has any words on the "good guy with a gun" who got shot and killed by police in Illinois.

The bar security guard who was carrying a licensed firearm and a CCW permit who was labeled a "hero" by witnesses as he chased down and tackled a shooting suspect. Police arrived on scene and immediately shot the security guard dead. I'm curious if the NRA will make a statement and come out to officially defend Jemel Roberson.

He was a "good guy with a gun."

That was atrocious. The NRA has been completely silent.

What about doctors who didnt serve, has the AMA jumped the shark too? Comedy gold.
I don't support the NRA because it has bargained away rights when expedient.
I always recommend the Gun Owners of America org.= no compromise

Anyone remember when they wanted doctors to ask and report if their patients owned a gun? Can we say overreach?
