Original Note:
The given statistic (1 in 5) includes suicides. The same Kaiser Family Foundation study says 51% of death by gun are suicides. The correct number is 1 in 10 experiencing gun violence, or 1 in 5 experiencing deaths including suicide. https://www.kff.org/other/poll-finding/americans-experiences-with-gun-related-violence-injuries-and-deaths/
