Is Covid included (and flu and RSV)?
And just what is the age range of these ‘children’?
2020 was a fluke year - COVID lockdowns meant motor vehicle deaths took a dive, and the St. George Floyd riots meant a ton more people got murdered, including children, including 18 and 19 year old children (adults included as children is a clue that the data is manipulated for an anti gun agenda)
covid was .2 deaths per 100,000, firearms (includes suicide) 5.5 per 100k, car crash, 5 per 100k.Black male "children" (quoted because it includes 18-19 yr olds) is 16 per 100k.
