Read the news. Talk to people. Live in the world. These are ways to know that access to guns in America is indeed a public health emergency.

No, the real public health emergency is called the Democrat Party!

The ability to protect yourself from felons is indeed an emergency, it's also guaranteed by our 2nd Amendment.

The Liberals failed with Legislation and courts so now they will try the medical to try and take our guns. Just another dimocrat scheme to try and control us.

Civilian guns are far more often used for defense than offense, according to 3 CDC studies.

Liberals, especially those in the Biden adminstration cabinet positions are so abysmally stupid about what they are talking about, it's embarrassing.

No, how the courts are dealing with criminals is a public health emergency. Catch and release is not the solution.

Nice picture of the scary gun, but it doesn't change why gun violence is increasing. Makes as much sense as declaring a public health emergency on obesity and regulating forks & spoons.

If it was, it's due the the monopoly of violence the government has. THE GOVERNMENT IS THE ROOT OF ALL VIOLENCE. Defund the FED!

Gun violence is not a public health emergency. Letting criminals roam around our community, freely, is a public health emergency.

No it isn't. What the real problem is is Democrats letting thousands of real criminals go unpunished, while using the criminals activities as an excuse to attack the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment.

Alcohol is the problem. Yet it rarely if ever gets talked about. If you want to stop gun violence eliminate alcohol and you're going violence just dropped at least in half.

Currently, MO is the country's leader in puppy mills. Punish these horrible monsters who traffic in the misery of poor animals!

Missouri should enforce strict laws against animal abuse—because any society that calls itself evolved must protect the voiceless. Cruelty tolerated is cruelty normalized, and no state that values progress can afford that.

Dogs are the most loyal animals and love you unconditionally no matter how they are treated and it is just heartbreaking to see them mistreated or abused!

Missouri has been notorious for puppy mills that sell sick puppies and treat dogs horrible.

Because we need to be advocates for the animals that get taken advantage of. They can’t fight for them for themselves. Some humans are very cruel

I think the more pertinent question would be should dogs and other domesticated animals kept as pets be considered property or have other more humane rights? This has nothing to do with breeding. The dogs were neglected and suffered immensely.

We need more room fulls of people in J.C. working out the details of sports betting, thereby sending exponentially more people into compulsive gambling, and eventually bankruptcy. To hell with protecting the innocent animals.

This isn't rocket science. They would have to win every game remaining, and every team ahead of them would have to lose every remaining game.

The question of the day has become the easy to answer question of the month. KMIZ needs to use some imagination. They could ask for help.
