She said this is a public health crisis...

If it's a crisis at all, it's a crime crisis.

The left has been trying for years to paint guns as a public health issue, so they can get their collectivist paws on it and shut down domestic gun ownership. That's all this article is about.

“From 2019 to 2020, firearm-related deaths went up 29.5% in people ages 1-19.”

They consider 17, 18 & 19 year-old gangbangers “children”

If true, it is a location dependant statistic.

Yah, no kidding. Notice how they group suicides with homicides? What you will find if you break out numbers is that there are a heckuva lot of suicides. Tragic, obviously, but deliberately misleading.

The stats themselves are probably true but highly misleading.

Strip out crime related gang violence and you get a new and much much lower number.

In 1983, the average starting salary for graduates of the University of Virginia school of Communication was something like $85,000. Now take out Ralph Sampson and his Houston Rocket's contract and run the numbers again...
