The opening metaphor, of guns as a disease, sets the tone of the rest of the article; deliberately misleading and incredibly biased. It sets gun rights supporters as superstitious ignoramuses, gun control legislation is painted as being as effective as antibiotics in curing illness, and completely ignores all of the millions of people who benefit from owning guns for sport, recreation and peace of mind.
