Your ignorant ass wouldn't know the truth if it crawled down Your throat. Get verified.

True, guns kill kids. Rarely, but still true. Traffic accidents kill more kids. Poisoning kills more kids. Try banning cars, or removing household pesticides, across the nation. Those things don't even have constitutional amendment protection as a right, yet no one is lobbying to ban cars or poison.

Most young children who are homicide victims are killed by a parent. Of American children younger than 5 years of age who were murdered over the 30-year period from 1976 to 2005, 31% were killed by their fathers or stepfathers, and 29% were killed by their mothers or stepmothers. Of the 40% not killed by a parent, most were killed by male acquaintances.

While a subset of all "kids" as you so brilliantly correlated causation to a "thing" maybe we should ban parents or males (things killing kids) as they are responsible for 60%-100% of all murders of kids 5 and under.

Gun fact: people with guns kill kids. Bad people. Guns are inanimate, a person has to pull the trigger.

Listen to what you are being told.

Interesting but irrelevant question. If you're dead at the hands of someone else, it really doesn't matter what was in those hands. Most people killed at someone else's hand were not shot, but they're all dead anyway.

I saw links and clicked them and they actually took me to a study. See that mouse with buttons or your little finger? you can click on the links on the webpage it it takes you to a new web page. Diving down the rabbit hole usually leads to a rabbit. A few seconds extra after reading the material and clicking the links can be educational.
