Since Trump’s election, gun groups catering to progressives and people of color report a surge in interest as they look to defend themselves in a country that, to them, feels increasingly unstable.

          Please take your gun apologia somewhere else.

          The number one killer of children in America.

          The answer is yes, you are a bad person for promoting this nonsense.

              Firearms injuries are number one good sir.

              Ages 1–17: Firearms have been the leading cause of death for children and teens since 2020. In 2023, there were approximately 3,500 firearm-related deaths among children, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data.

                False. That data was an outlier from covid. It’s car deaths again…on top of that drowning kills more kids than guns…but you don’t care about the deaths, you only care about how they died.
