To give more consideration to that argument than it&#x27;s worth for a second, is there no government funded medical research into these medical issues in the US then?<p>Add to the fact that you&#x27;d be talking about prevention, not cure for it to be a parallel to the gun issue.<p>Shame that no government can try to do something about more than one issue at once, though. Imagine what it would be like if we could keep dangerous drivers off the streets, give those with mental illness the treatment they deserve, conduct medical research into preventing and curing life threatening illnessess, and stop deadly weapons from getting into the hands of those who would use them to harm others, but all at the same time!
