Original Note:
The statement that gun violence is the leading cause of death for children is false. According to the CDC, the leading cause of death ages 1-17 (i.e., children) is accidents. The Vice President may be referencing a recent study which included ages 18-19. https://wonder.cdc.gov/controller/datarequest/D158;jsessionid=3EDBD59DAA36350BD98D361CCB77
