This is a problem. Government departments must have delimited authority and scope. There are other government and nonprofit entities tracking gun violence. Absolutely no need for CDC to get involved except for stupid politics. It's a distraction from their core mission.
- Gigachad 1y agoI doubt this took much of their resources or attention at all. Seems more like commenters are mad about this data being tracked rather than genuine concern over the departments resource allocations.
- jeffbee 1y agoThe CDC was directed by Congress to prevent injuries by the 1986 Injury Prevention Act and the 1990 Injury Control Act, notwithstanding your superficial and frankly moronic understanding of the agency.
- Esophagus4 1y ago> It's a distraction from their core mission. So if they can study gun violence while still accomplishing their core mission without distraction, surely you’d be ok with this, I presume?
- cosmicgadget 1y agoAren't 2Aers the ones pushing the narrative toward mental health so they don't get slapped with gun control?
