Gun injuries are a growing problem for Florida’s children, rising along with the increasing availability of firearms across the state, according to a special report in the Tampa Bay Times. The newspaper reported that it looked at millions of hospital discharge records for patients across Florida, plus data collected by the state’s 24 medical examiners. |

What bogus BS.
The death toll among kids is among BLACK kids in gang-infested neighborhoods, shot by criminals who can't legally purchase or possess firearms to begin with.
The implication here is that guns being available to average citizens through the normal, regulated processes is responsible for the rise in child gunshot victims.
Completely disingenuous, completely bogus. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
