1. How about un-gag the doctors.

Now, it's actually a law that's preventing doctors from discussing gun ownership with their patients, if there are guns in their homes, how it's a health and safety hazard.

I attended a lecture by a UCLA researcher who said the absolute hardest part of her job was data collection. Policy-makers are hampered by the lack of data collection because statistics cannot be collected and trends cannot be detected or tracked. It's not even possible to STUDY gun violence because data collection is obstructed.

Besides, I didn't know some 2nd-Amendment-Remedy Congressperson was allowed to practice medicine without a license - which it can be argued he or she can do, by legally muzzling doctors from fully and honestly serving their patients this way.
