6. Wonder how many of these MDs visited Englewood to do research?

"Physicians must do more to help reduce the rate of gun-related injuries and deaths, according to an impassioned panel of experts..."

If they're so "impassioned" about gun deaths, their meeting was only a 15 minute cab ride from Englewood, Chatham and Pilsen where a record number of "children" from 15 to 29 were killed this year by guns. I'm sure their collective passion and insight could have saved some of the children there or at least tried to save some.

Probably not, their research seems to be more theoretical than practical. Besides they might get their ass shot off out there in the real world. Much better to approach it from the safe space of a hotel conference room with coffee and ice water available.
