Read the news. Talk to people. Live in the world. These are ways to know that access to guns in America is indeed a public health emergency.

Max DeYoung

The ability to protect yourself from felons is indeed an emergency, it's also guaranteed by our 2nd Amendment.

Jason Eugene Davidson

No, the real public health emergency is called the Democrat Party!

The Liberals failed with Legislation and courts so now they will try the medical to try and take our guns. Just another dimocrat scheme to try and control us.

Richard Winkel

Civilian guns are far more often used for defense than offense, according to 3 CDC studies.

Tim Van Huss

Liberals, especially those in the Biden adminstration cabinet positions are so abysmally stupid about what they are talking about, it's embarrassing.

Max DeYoung

No, how the courts are dealing with criminals is a public health emergency. Catch and release is not the solution.

Toasty

Nice picture of the scary gun, but it doesn't change why gun violence is increasing. Makes as much sense as declaring a public health emergency on obesity and regulating forks & spoons.

Tim Valderez

Something something liberals, something something big gov bad. I just think my whacky noise stick is neat.

Zaos Gonzolez

If it was, it's due the the monopoly of violence the government has. THE GOVERNMENT IS THE ROOT OF ALL VIOLENCE. Defund the FED!

John

Gun violence is not a public health emergency. Letting criminals roam around our community, freely, is a public health emergency.

Jason Eugene Davidson

No it isn't. What the real problem is is Democrats letting thousands of real criminals go unpunished, while using the criminals activities as an excuse to attack the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment.

Martin Farnum

Alcohol is the problem. Yet it rarely if ever gets talked about. If you want to stop gun violence eliminate alcohol and you're going violence just dropped at least in half.

Max DeYoung

The other half is drugs.

Aint ever even seen a gub before.

Why are the marines any different than any other branch of service that gets deployed in U.S. As a veteran- I have been deployed for things in U.S. over the years- it’s not just for protecting us in foreign countries Our oath of office says we will protect foreign and domestic

Newsom, Bass and Waters can't handle the situation. I believe the Marines should be a last resort but certainly an option on the table.

Eric Smith

Maxine Waters face alone should be a warning to the world that a darwinian subspecies has overtaken southern California

What do you do when a foreign body rises up on American soil. You make an example out of it. Never understood the waving of other countries flags in these situations. They are sending you back to the country you are so proud of. Im hoping they're treated like armed combatants.

Belinda Kitchen

Because someone needs to help cause obviously the government in California don't care . The president is doing all that he can to help . I say if ur illegal you need to leave either willingly or by forcing.

Max DeYoung

This is an insurrection, with guns and devastating fires. They should all be arrested and treated with same due process as the Jan 6th people.

Toasty

Would you be saying the same thing if Biden had deployed the Marines on Jan 6th? Even the National Guard seems a little over the top, but Newsom is 100% responsible for the chaos. He needs to be held accountable for not supporting ICE and the arrests of the criminals that broke into our country.

This is not an insurrection! The police set their own car on fire from what I heard. These protests were peaceful for the most part until Felon47 got involved. They did cause a lot of damage with the graffiti, but no one was injure bc of it. Maybe Felon47 should have sent 700 Maries like your post o

Fat Guy Outdoors

You heard they destroyed their own police cars. I would suggest you change the place where you get your lies from. They burned they're own cars. Wow. TDS is real.

Lisha Lammers

No, the Marines should NOT be deployed to States against their own people.

Toasty

Not that it may not be warranted, but sets a bad precedence when, not if, a real socialist tricks his/her way into the power and justifies deploying our military against her citizens to 'keep the peace'. I voted for Trump, but lets call 'balls and strikes', he does not get a pass for this behavior.
