In many cases, the children shot themselves, while others killed siblings or friends, according to the gun control advocacy group.

At least 157 people were killed and 270 were injured last year in unintentional shootings by children, according to Everytown, an advocacy group for firearm safety.

    The issue is people who feel like they have nothing to lose taking their frustration out on society.

    It’s why there are other nations with comparable gun ownership rates as the US without comparable amounts of gun violence.

    Congratulations, though. You’re doing what the ruling class wants: squabbling over bullshit to distract you from the real issues.

      I’m not squabbling. You lot just need to stop pretending owning a gun is an inalienable right, the absence of which would see the sky fall. Absolute muppetry.
