You’re off by almost a factor of 4.
In 2021, it was 3.7 deaths per 100,000 children. Scaling that up to 100m, would be 3700 children. In 2021, ~2500 children were killed by firearms in the US, that is ~0.29 children per hour.
Nah, I say let them play. I don’t want them to tell me how low it is, I really want to know how high they are willing to let that number go. The answer is the same every time; any number of dead kids doesn’t matter. I just want them to be upfront with that information rather than falsely state that they don’t care because the number is low, when the truth is they just don’t fucking care at all because they are fucking selfish assholes.

They want to play the numbers game when one is one too many. Don’t engage in the percentages tango, it validates their stupid point.
