According to his own information, there were 554 deaths caused by firearms. Out of 118k unintentional deaths.

Yes, guns should be kept away from kids who haven’t been trained...but where the hell is this guy getting his info?

Obviously MV accidents are worse. But falling kills more. Should we repeal the law of gravity?

A little less than 10K are homicides and about 20K are suicides.
