It’s still not enough<\/p>\n
White House Repeals Unscientific HHS Advisory On Gun Violence.<\/a><\/p>\n Democrats and anti-Second Amendment stooges are\u00a0up in arms<\/a>\u00a0about your right to bear them once again, as the Trump administration has repealed former Surgeon General Vivek Murthy\u2019s anti-gun tract,\u00a0Firearm Violence: A Public Health Crisis in America<\/a>, from the official Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) website. The move is part of an avalanche of actions building up in response to the President\u2019s February 7 Executive Order, \u201cProtecting Second Amendment Rights<\/a>,\u201d claiming to seek the identification and elimination of ongoing infringements upon American gun rights. With weaponization of the federal bureaucracy against law-abiding gun owners being a staple of the former Biden-Harris administration, it is hopeful to see a refocusing of those efforts onto the actual criminals themselves under President Trump.<\/p>\n \u201cIllegal violence of any sort is a crime issue, and as he again made clear during his recent speech at the Department of Justice, President Trump is committed to Making America Safe Again by empowering law enforcement to uphold law and order,\u201d the White House\u00a0responded<\/a>\u00a0to the Guardian\u2019s question about the removal of webpages.<\/p>\n The NRA predicted under heavy scrutiny that the appointment of Murthy as U.S. surgeon general during the second Obama-Biden administration would lead to further politicizing of his anti-gun agenda, a position Murthy\u00a0lied about under oath<\/a>\u00a0to Senators at his first confirmation hearing, saying he would not use his platform as a bully pulpit for gun control, and would instead focus on the obesity epidemic. During his initial term as surgeon general, Murthy\u2019s failure to effectively address that epidemic led to his being reappointed by the Biden administration, where failing upwards is practically in the job description.<\/p>\n With a reinvigorated sense of tenure and those promises under oath in his rearview mirror, the good doctor did what he did best, pretending to have special insight into the causes of firearm-related crime, much like his calls for gun control when he headed the advocacy group Doctors for America. In July 2024, he published his 40-page manifesto, Firearm Violence: A Public Health Crisis in America, even promoting it through media appearances like the perjurous little rock star he is.<\/p>\n \u201c[T]he advisory has nothing to do with treating gunshot wounds, dealing with potential lead exposure from handling firearms or ammunition, hearing loss from exposure to muzzle reports, or any other medical issue pertaining to guns. Instead, it is simply a taxpayer-funded tract that promotes the same tired slate of oppressive gun control laws that Murthy\u2019s fellow firearm prohibitionists have wanted for decades. It also seeks to provide cover for the disastrous crime-control failures of Murthy\u2019s Democrat party by insisting that firearm assaults and homicides are akin to a disease or contagion rather than crimes committed by predators (most with lengthy records) who too often act with impunity,\u201d\u00a0according to analysis<\/a>\u00a0of the document by the NRA Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA).<\/p>\n Of course, the tired effort of anti-Second Amendment groups and grifters has done nothing to reduce firearm-related deaths in the United States, but that has never really been the goal in the first place. Any literate person can pick up a book on the history of governments disarming citizens to find a clear pattern of subjugation and worse following the successful confiscation of the means to defend liberty.<\/p>\n The revocation of this anti-Second Amendment propaganda masquerading as science is part of a series of actions that have taken place in the last week by the Trump administration and the Department of Justice that will hopefully move necessary pieces into place, further defending and more tangibly restoring American gun rights. Yes, I will remain skeptical and cautiously optimistic until something happens that feels less punitive towards the previous administration and more substantive to my life as someone who owns and purchases guns. In the meantime, I will drink from the cup of leftist tears as the\u00a0meltdowns continue<\/a>\u00a0and pray that I\u2019ve been wrong about America\u2019s tipping point and our ability to restore the founding values that made this country great in the first place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s still not enough White House Repeals Unscientific HHS Advisory On Gun Violence.
