Original Note:
Missing Context: According to the CDC, accidents are the leading cause of death for children. In 2021, ages 12-17 accounted for 86% of all gun deaths. Over half of the homicides for ages 15-19 are gang related and even banning guns is unlikely to prevent this. https://crimeresearch.org/2023/05/looking-at-the-false-claim-that-firearms-are-the-leading-cause-of-deaths-for-children-or-teens/ https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/child-health.htm https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/adolescent-health.htm https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/03/29/guns-leading-deaths-children-us/
