Guns Became #1 Cause of Death Among 1-19 Year Olds in 2020

Wait a minute. I thought 100% of deaths of all age groups between March 2020 and today were due to Covid and people not wearing masks?

Because “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of citizens to keep and bear arms and slaughter children shall not be infringed”.

If everybody under 19 was given a gun there would be fewer gun deaths because the more guns the safer things get.

Well, you see, by making every fearful of social interaction with other people and making it illegal for people to gather together for fear of punishment or death by covid, one could easily see how that could push the mentally unstable towards guns. Where before those mentally unstable would have at least some interaction with a cashier or librarian, the liberal media instead drove the message they need to be fearful of everyone which makes them increasingly lonesome and deranged enough to use a gun on children. So yes, you could link covid to the rise of gun deaths in children but not with how the liberal leftist media fearmongers distort it.

You have made the same weak argument in many threads. It’s amazing you still think the public has access to machine guns.

“a weapon that deadly?” You do know what a weapon is right?

This would be interesting if the root cause was guns. The 30% increase is a byproduct of COVID shutdowns pushed by the left. So, now who really cares about the welfare of the youth in this country? The shutdowns were terrible for kids, as it caused some to become more isolated and commit suicide (primarily white kids), and others (especially the poor) lost a year or more of education that they will never get back and will affect their lifetime earnings to the tune of 17 trillion dollars to roam the streets and start shooting each other (the homicide deaths were primarily among black youths).

Glad that lefties like you have finally realized the error of your policies. Bravo.

Availability of guns did not change during this period you are looking at. The thing that changed during this period was kids getting shut out of schools.

Have other developed countries seen a similarly nasty rise in mass shootings and kids being slaughtered? Many of them had lockdowns that would make the American right die of rage

Vast majority of these murders are 18-19 year olds, committed with a hand gun, and connected to gang violence, in Democrat run cities.

Decent attempt at a back pedal. Your lack of firearm knowledge is too obvious though based on your prior posts and hence disqualifies you from the conversation. You still don’t understand what a weapon is.

nice try bud.

Most would be gang related. Although the article states suicides aren’t a majority of the stats, it’s curious they don’t give any actual figures.

Dude the 70s are still over.

where are these tons of people? I know more people who want them then don’t.

You shouldn’t use the banned once before argument. Alcohol was banned before. Look how that turned out.

Checkmate.
