It's telling that someone like you, a well informed, intelligent person, didn't know this was a thing. I also consider myself reasonably well informed, and I didn't know it was a thing until they had a bunch of coverage about it after the Sandy Hook shootings.

This points to a vast media failure. In their attempts to not look like raging liberals, they fear even nudging the boat that is the NRA. Scientific inquiry isn't political when done properly. Fear of information is far worse than any gun law that could be passed. Censorship is the thing that offends me most in life.
