Guns Number One Killer Of Kids
bit.ly/2CHLudt
In this thought-provoking video, I debunk the claim that guns are the number one killer of kids in America, a narrative often pushed by politicians and anti-Second Amendment groups. At first glance, it sounds terrifying, as if all these little kids are being murdered by guns. But let's take a closer look.
The argument stems from a letter published by the New England Journal of Medicine, which uses CDC homicide numbers to conclude that "guns are the leading killer of children and adolescents in the United States." However, their definition of children and adolescents includes anyone aged 1 to 19 years!
Wait a minute, aren't 18 and 19-year-olds considered adults?
The Center Prevention Research Center points out that including 18 and 19-year-olds is misleading, especially considering the high incidence of gang violence within that age group.
Moreover, the inclusion of self-deletion numbers in this statistic is unwarranted. Studies show that in places where guns are banned, total self-deletion rates remain unchanged. So why include these numbers?
Excluding firearm self-deletions would significantly reduce the CDC's statistics by 30 to 35 percent, revealing a different picture.
There's also a deceptive issue with using homicide numbers instead of murder numbers.
Homicides encompass murder as well as self-defense shootings by both civilians and law enforcement. Including self-defense shootings in a statistic used to justify restricting guns is misleading and fails to acknowledge that guns can save lives when used responsibly.
When we consider all these deceptive definitions and factors, the narrative changes.
While the inflated numbers may suggest that guns were the leading cause of death for those under the age of 20 in 2020 and 2021, this changes when we focus specifically on those under 18. From 2019 to 2021, guns are not the highest killer of children and adolescents within that age range.
So the next time someone brings up the claim that guns are the number one killer of kids, share this video with them
And don't forget to check out the "Guns Åre Common Sense" shirt, because common sense means having the best means to protect yourself and your loved ones from threats.
When someone seeks to harm you, it's only logical to have a responsibly and effectively used firearm as the most effective tool for self-defense.
