Gun Policies That May Decrease Outcomes… Gun Policies That May Increase Outcomes [More]

So “may” means it’s spcualtion, not “fact.”

Mission Impossible

Medical Journal The Lancet Abandons Science, Tells Authors to Use ‘Sex Assigned at Birth’ – “…the terms ‘sex’ and ‘gender’ can be ambiguous…” [More]
