Now let's see if I have this right.  Thousands of people die every year from guns but we cannot even get a bill through Congress that would require background checks before purchasing a gun. One person dies from Ebola (contracted in another country)  and we want the President to close our borders to anyone coming from West Africa. There are some governors who want to quarantine health workers who have cared for Ebola victims in other countries.  There is something wrong with citizens who cannot discern a unreasonable reaction to the small possibility of contracting an infectious disease while ignoring the much greater probability of being killed by a gun.
