    Firearm-related deaths are a leading cause of death in 1-19 year old kids, but homicide is a fraction of that number, and school shootings is a fraction of that fraction. The biggest category for firearm deaths are accidental shootings in minority communities in the city. School shootings is not even close to being a leading cause of death.

        “Our kids are dying due to an issue of firearm regulation, but worry not, only a fraction of those preventable deaths are purposeful mass murders at educational institutions!”

        Crazy that someone actually wrote something like that.
