Came across this article from a medical website claiming that Stand Your Ground Laws are a greater health threat than mass shootings. The article states: "Stand-your-ground laws worsen racial disparities in gun violence" and "Stand-your-ground laws place Black Americans at increased risk of violence, death, and criminality due to firearms." Well, maybe if one didn't commit a crime there wouldn't be the gun violence? Why is race injected into this discussion about home invasion crime? Sorry, doctor — you're just wrong.
How's that Diversity paying off? The Oregon legislature has a BIPOC coalition, and now they want to extend SNAP food assistance to illegal immigrants.

The Oregon Medical Board will be prohibited from imposing the deadline. All because of the workforce "emergency".
