Original Note:
The post claims that the leading cause of death for children (Minors) in the US is firearms. 0 - >18yo. is the legal def. of a minor in the US. CDC uses the metric of 0-19yo. If you remove the ages of 18-19 (legal adults) the leading cause of deaths is not firearms related. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/politifact/2022/06/07/fact-check-firearms-leading-cause-death-children/7529783001/
