The hype is far less infectious this year . <| sep |> You misheard him . He said he was ridding Washington of eggheads and democrats . Full nepotism ahead ! <| sep |> There is a sale on the monoprice worth a look . <| sep |> Hearing this theme before loading in actually made the game feel way different . Like it lost something nowadays that i can ' t put my finger on <| sep |> Fuck drinking . Doesn ' t work for me . I will not drink with any of you today . <| sep |> the thinness of available data regarding guns and gun violence is due entirely to the efforts of the gun lobby . And this is patently false . No doubt you ' re referring to the false claim that the CDC is barred from researching gun violence . However , the CDC can research whatever they want , produce any studies or reports they want , and present any findings they want . The only thing they cannot do is used their funding to promote gun control , which is a political position . This is due to them being caught producing biased studies . None of the funds made available for injury prevention and control at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention may be used to advocate or promote gun control . Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of 1997104 publ 208 pdfPLAW 104 publ 208 . pdfIt was Congress that did this because of the CDC ' s strong political stance against guns that was present in their work . This is due in part to , official goal of the CDC ' s parent agency , the U . S . Public Health Service , had been to reduce the number of handguns in private ownership , starting with a 25 % reduction by the turn of the century . t h e c e n t e r s f o r d i s e a s e c o n t r o l s h o u l d n o t receivegunresearchfunding # 5 f 0303 ce 2 eb 5 We ' re going to systematically build a case that owning firearms causes deaths .

This is the case in many European countries . Besides that multiple government agencies and organizations have produced various studies and reports on guns and gun violence . This ranges from the CDC to the FBI and the DOJ to the US Congressional Research Service .
