Anyone doubting that "gun control" is a failed ideology should review the peer reviewed research. Also, look up "demagoguery" and "scapegoat" in the dictionary. Many countries have had "gun control" laws for decades so it's not at all like the past when it could be considered plausibly uncertain how effective they would be. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0234457

I mean, when someone walks into a school and guns down 25 elementary school kids, I don't begrudge people their emotional overreactions, even if they're wrong.

That's fine. But we're seeing medical doctors leverage the 'appeal to authority' fallacy to shamelessly promote failed ideology. And have you ever watched one of Trudeau's flashy press conferences?

I'm sure the gun control "science" is as utterly, hopelessly, deliberately skewed by bad faith actors as COVID and climate.
