[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you drive to school? Or spend any time on a road whatsoever?
Way riskier.

I'm sorry you're feeling anxious, op. Maybe getting active might help. For both gun safety and road safety, parents need to mobilize and push for change[/quote]

You’re wrong.

Statistically, American children are more likely to die from gun violence than from car accidents.

If you include teenagers, yes. For children under 13, car wrecks are more deadly. And every death is tragic, but most of those teenage gun deaths are suicides or drug/gang related, not random school shootings. [/quote]

It also highly varies based off racial group too.

By 2019, Black youth had a gun mortality rate 4.3 times higher than white youth and a gun homicide rate more than 14 times higher. “There is no biologic plausibility for these disparities but rather they are a reflection of racist systems and policies that perpetuate inequities in violent injuries and death,” the authors wrote.[/quote]
