Well put, JTB. I forgot about the ban on NIH and CDC research on guns and health issues. The demoralizing part is that we the public are happy to engage in superficial, hyperbolic, misleading non-debate based on the cotton-candy news we are fed. There was a time when, if you wanted to join a discussion or present an opinion on an issue, you had to be informed. Now people seem to think all opinions are created equal, and facts can be ignored. Edward R. Murrow is spinning in his grave.
