    ALL owners are the problem.

    How many familymembers were already killed by a child that found by accident a gun and shot father, mother, brother or sister?
    Last week a 4 year old child shot at policemen who were arresting his father. These policemen, or anybody else could be killed. The child said he wanted to free his father.

    So far, in 2021 there have been at least 259 unintentional shootings by children, resulting in 104 deaths and 168 injuries nationally, according to the group's #NotAnAccident Index. Everytown is a U.S. nonprofit that advocates for gun control.

    At that pace the organization projects these incidents in 2021 are set to surpass even the record reached in 2017. That year 383 cases of accidental shootings by kids occurred and at least 156 people were killed.

    False. Wanna know why I'll never be a statistic in a mass shooting?---I carry legally.

    I like how those who are so against gun ownership know the least about them...I cant imagine having such a strong opinion on something that I am completely ignorant of. its laughable.

    You mean how Hillary thought that silencers should be banned because guns aren't noisy then?

    The probability that you will never be a statistic in a mass shooting, even if you have no gun at all is almost identical to the probability while carrying one.

    The probability that you will be shot carrying a gun is multiple times bigger than me while carrying no gun. The reason is simple: I don't live in the US.
