abstract="By treating risky behavior like a communicable disease, the public health establishment invites government to meddle in our private lives. While persons familiar with firearms policy issues are familiar with &quot;public health&quot; as a rationale for gun prohibition, the prohibitionist arguments on guns are merely one aspect of a comprehensive &quot;public health&quot; vision of an America in desperate need to be regulated, whether it wants regulation or not.
