For years, car accidents were the leading cause of death for kids and teens

show that Black and brown children are typically more exposed to gun violence than white children are.

The question of how to address that failure, of course, is something experts, community leaders and activists have longwith—even more so since the surge in gun violence that began at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak. “The decrease in motor-vehicle-crash deaths in children and young adults is not unintentional. We have excellent data systems for motor vehicle injuries and deaths that we just don’t have for firearm deaths,” Lee says.To the researchers, that fact takes on double significance. The decline in car-related deaths is not just evidence that efforts to improve safety can make a big difference; it may also provide clues for ways to help reduce firearms deaths.

You want the hidden story I'm the hidden story.

You're all buying this shit. 🤡

Is the 2nd amendment a smoke screen do we as US citizens really need to bare arms who are we really protecting yourselves from

⚠️Beware, the United States is where children are killed. It is not safe, the law protects the killer of children, the deceitful police are the killers of children.✊People take to the streets to fight the oppression of the criminal government.

US Government still leads in American and Global population death tolls.

All Americans they love killing, all of them are killers, that why they happy to see killing in other nations ,and they contribute a lot of money to support killing. they have a heart of killing, hands of killing, face of killing. everything for them is to kill

Break it down! Where? By whom? What city?

Arm more kids!

We hire 18 yr olds to sub deploy Nat Guard to teach beg retired teachers to return All to keep from paying teachers more Now the same underpaid teachers that buy their own supplies have to buy a gun, train, & secure it? Yep that tracks AbbottFailedTexasAgain AbbottCruzMassacre

So, not Covid?

Since most gun deaths of minors are homicides two contributors might be a spike in impulsive gun buyers we saw & the lockdowns causing people to be trapped with more with dangerous family members who were pushed to the point of homicide by proximity exacerbating their problems

the bigger picture...per the CDC

So then the media lied about Children's Covid death totals... shocking?

Yet no one does anything to stop 🛑 these attacks

Except for George Floyd, snuffed out while at gun point.

Not true you are lying why?

so it is guns which are the cause and not mental issues.

Can’t we just go back to the days of tuberculosis…. Jeez guys

Suicide. It’s become a sad epidemic. Especially since the world suicide rates are declining

respect, bless

ANY other consumer good would be recalled or banned.

BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS!!!!

I just don't understand why world governments don't supply Ukraine️ with heavy weapons! Why? 😭🇺🇦 Do they really want all my people to die? Don't they understand that russia won't stop? russia is treating all the Europe! Are you ok with that too? SaveUkraine

Undeniable. Time for action.

Why doesn’t the entire Fourth Estate do a major public campaign on this gun lobby nytimes washingtonpost Shame those Congressmen publicly

Look I don't even need to read this..guns don't kill ppl, ppl do. This problem is not guns,it's broken family dynamics. Now late the hate flow in.

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡❄️❄️🤮🤢🤡

I’ve been watching my guns very closely. So far they haven’t moved on their own.

Guns are not the cause of any death, just like cars, opioids, skydiving, etc. The idiots pulling the triggers or (insert mechanism a human uses) are. horseshit morons clickbait

.......and no real acknowledgment, discussion or solutions........ pitiful

What’s the rate of just children, or even ages 1-17? ages 18 & 19, those are LEGAL adults. Not “teens” under our homicide laws. There was a sharper increase in drug overdoses & poisonings in the age group of 1-19 than in firearm related injury, according to CDC data.

Only in the USA.

Actually, it's the people holding the gun.

So sad.
