Save the Children

Writer claims thousands of "Children" die from gun violence each year.

But when you look at the CDC numbers (2010) children are all the way up to 24 years old.

Now excuse me at 18 you are an adult, yes a young adult, but you can vote, join the military, at 21 your are a full fledged adult , and can now drink legally and buy a handgun legally.

12-13 are the prime ages kids start joining gangs which is a bit more than playing cops and robbers on the corner, and while they may still be classified as children, they are nothing more than violent thugs.

Very few of the violent childhood deaths are truly innocent children, and yes even a few are tragic, but more laws will not make them more safe
