That's not the only paradox that concerns children's safety. Mom's murder their kids more then dad, and mom's kill more children up to age 16 than guns do, when auto accident's are factored in and "mom" caused the accident. I concede that gang members are dangerous to children up to age 18, but not age 21 that the CDC and "Mil Mom March" include in their misleading statistics.
Alas, we will never solve these problems if it is more politically profitable to abuse the data to advance an agenda. But the socialist/feminist's agenda to collectivize the society of the U.S. is more important than facts. If some kids die in the process on the way to feminist utopia, I guess that's the price of the future.
