Dr. Timothy Wheeler Appearing on 60 Minutes



On Sunday May 12, Dr. Timothy Wheeler will appear on CBS' 60 Minutes to discuss the controversial practice of physicians questioning patients about gun ownership. Check your local listings for the exact showtime.

Dr. Wheeler, a southern California surgeon, is the director of Doctors for Responsible Gun Ownership (DRGO), a project of the Claremont Institute launched in 1994. With more than 1,300 physician-members nationwide, DRGO supports the safe and lawful use of firearms. One of its major projects is countering the bad science and ideological bias behind the attempt to treat guns as a "disease" that threatens public health--the topic of the 60 Minutes segment.

For more information on DRGO, please visit http://www.claremont.org/1_drgo.cfm.




"If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege." - Arkansas Supreme Court, 1878

    Thanks for the heads-up. I usually avoid "60 Minutes of Propaganda" but there's always the possibility his comments won't be edited selectively. . . slim, but a chance.
