Former neurosurgeon Ben Carson said on Friday that the Centers for Disease Control should be able to conduct research on the causes of gun violence, a position that put him at odds with America's gun lobby and congressional Republicans. Asked after a speech here if the prohibition on that sort of research should be lifted, Carson said he was always interested in the collection of data. |

As a doctor, he should be aware of their prior body of work in this area...
Not to mention 'disease control' and 'gun control' are not the same mission at all. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
