- La Asociación Nacional del Rifle criticó a los médicos que piden mayor control de armas y ellos responden.
Hace unos días, un médico murió en Chicago tras recibir los disparos de un paciente. El colectivo médico mostró su rechazo a la posesión de armas en Estados Unidos y la Asociación Nacional del Rifle (NRA, por sus siglas en inglés), el principal lobby a favor de las armas de fuego en EE UU, criticó a los facultativos y les emplazó a no salirse «de su carril».
La respuesta de muchos médicos norteamericanos ha sido contundente: han compartido durísimas fotos de su día a día y de lo que tienen que lidiar con los numerosos tiroteos que se producen por todo el país. Con la etiqueta #ThisIsMyLane (‘Éste es mi carril’), no han ahorrado en fotos sangrientas para concienciar a la ciudadanía del problema de las armas de fuego en Estados Unidos.
@NRA One of two last night. He didn’t make it. Many haven’t this month. On a highway teeming with unnecessary, preventable carnage, we aren’t going to stand idly by with our blinkers flashing. #StayInMyLane #ThisIsOurLane pc: @brettecker @pennsurgery pic.twitter.com/QOKnG9dRtb

I held this 22-year-old’s heart & used my hand to pump blood through a bullet-riddled body. We resuscitated this person for nearly an hour & they made it to the OR, but would never make it home to their family. Tell me whose lane this is @NRA ? #thisisOURlane @ResearchAffirm pic.twitter.com/aXinICgI2g

It’s time for more resources and more effort on this violence problem. Its about much more than just guns so let’s think and act broadly. #bloodyscrubs #ThisIsMyLane pic.twitter.com/IWQRWtuuzq

Hey @nra, want to come and help us count these lap sponges? That red you see is blood. You know, from bullets. That came from a gun. In case that wasn’t clear. #ThisISMyLane #Docs4GunSense pic.twitter.com/Meny1tdw2w

First patient, first day of residency: gunshot wound to the head. Tried saving him as his mother cried into my shoulder pleading for us to save him. He didn’t make it. He wasn’t the last one either. #ThisISMyLane #ThisISOurLane #NRA pic.twitter.com/n820f6LvQq
