    It’s like 40 lightning deaths a year versus 10,000 gun deaths, that’s why these conversations can’t happen. Gun deaths is the number one killer of children, more than all diseases combined even.

    You can’t begin to understand where im coming from if you won’t even take gun deaths seriously.

      No. You’re conflating with non accidental discharge. The odds of you getting shot, accidentally are near nil.

          Second time I’ve needed to go full circle with someone.

          iTs NoT tHe GuNs FaUlT iTs tHe PeOpLe 🙄🙄🙄

          That is the comment I was addressing. It was the person’s fault. It was negligence and illegal. Words have meaning.

          If you’re afraid of shooting yourself that’s all entirely tangential direction you went.
