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.

Defund all welfare programs. Make people responsible for their own actions.

SNAP is primarily funded by the U.S. federal government through congressional appropriations, with the USDA providing the funds, and states administering the program and covering their share of administrative costs.

Trump basically has no say in this, it's on the shoulders of Congress. Might want to study what all the 111th Congress did back in 2009-11... this is all about payback.

Its all a game both sides are playing with real people in the middle. Trump should step aside and tell congress this mess is all theirs.
