Original Note:
This claim about firearm deaths deserves context. Within certain parameters — such as ages 1-18 and 1-19, in the years 2020 and 2021 — gun-related incidents were the leading cause of death in children and teens. Child mortality for 2022 and 2023 has not yet been released. https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/03/29/guns-leading-deaths-children-us/
