I incorrectly reported in Wednesday's column that the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta did not, thanks to NRA pressure on Congress, track suicides by gun, thus limiting conversations about guns deadly power.
I couldn't have been more incorrect.
The CDC does do that.
Again, I owe an apology and correction to both.
I was dead wrong about CDC and NRA
