A sample of deaths by gunfire this year of children age 12 and under based on an Associated Press review of media reports: Jan. 23—Jaymee M. Steward, 7, is accidentally shot in the head while he and his brothers, ages 4 and 13, play in a bedroom of the family home in Morristown, Tenn., with a .22-caliber gun they mistake for a toy. Jaymee dies three days later. Feb. 20—Delric Miller, 9 months, is struck by gunfire when an attacker sprays the Detroit home he is in with an AK-47. Authorities say the gunfire is gang-related.

when do we get to see the sampling of child deaths from pools, poisonings, and falls or is that not salacious enough?

How many inconvenient babies were aborted last year??

When people ignore this, they're as guilty as if they had killed these babies in the womb themselves.

Firearms don’t even warrant a mention of those things most likely to cause an injury death.

While this article discusses children 12 and under, most “child gun deaths” statistics favored by liberals that they throw out include all the teenage gang-bangers blowing each other away in street violence.

Virginia Commonwealth University Professor Thomas
Baker has crunched the numbers in the state of Virginia
and has determined that gun sales in the state have
climbed 73% since 2006, while the number of violent
crimes involving guns has declined by more than 27%.

those guns are then all exported via “gun show loopholes” to Chicago, Baltimore and DC for sale by Wayne LaPierre to poor black children. /sarc

About 100,000 children were killed in the US last year as he result of inconvenience. If we really care about protecting children, we would ban the abortionists’ scalpels and suction tubes.

Gangs, idiots who leave guns out where kids can find them, and crazy people.

Therefore, guns are bad.
