Oh, only 500…since columbine. Thanks for minimizing them. I don’t ask for proof of how uncaring gun enthusiasts are but one you always provides it anyway. It’s amazing the research one can get a gun nut to do by the use of hyperbole.
Considering 500 which isn’t just children is way different than thousands… yea it requires context
If I chanted the word to “school aged children” is no longer an exaggeration. Guns are the number one cause of death for children in america.
No it’s not, it had a single year during covid when everyone was closed in…but by all means…
If I change it to “school shooting victims” it’s an under count since hundred of thousands have been in the buildings during those school shootings.
I don’t know what you’re trying to say here? Can you clarify this.
it had a single year during covid when everyone was closed in
Not getting too involved but just a heads up for everyone, that study was highly flawed. It considered 18 and 19 y/o as “children” and only took place in a few cities which coincidentally happen to be some of the worst cities for gang activity in the country (which targets kids for members, often recruiting at age 10-13), NYC, LA, CHI, Philly, and iirc BMore. It also did indeed take place during covid lockdowns when less kids would have been involved in traffic accidents (the actual biggest killer) due to zoomschooling.
Sure school shootings are a problem, but that particular study is bad.
