We all know what happens when there is a mass shooting.
Democrats go full gun control and fail to look at the full picture.
They always choose to go after the weapon and not the person pulling the trigger.
Barack Obama did just as expected, only he is using a debunked stat to push the agenda.
Since When?
Last time I checked, you are considered an adult in this country at the age of 18.
Yet, to make the numbers work, the CDC lumped 18 and 19-year-olds in with gun deaths of children.
Why would they do this?
Well, so they could claim that guns were the number one killer of children over car deaths.
When you remove the 18 and 19-year-olds from both categories, lo and behold, cars are the number one killer of children in this country.
But, here is Obama…
We are failing our children. Guns are now the leading cause of death for children in the U.S.

The CDC currently reports that in 2020, 4,036 children were killed by cars and 4,368 children were killed by gunfire.
Removing the 18 and 19-year-old stats from both categories, those numbers are 2,281 and 2,503, with car deaths having the higher number, but nobody is talking about banning cars.
Let me add another category in there that I would love to have numbers on…
If we look at children between the ages of 12 and 17, how many of them were involved with gangs and died related to gang violence.
And to be clear, I am not talking about the innocent children that get caught in the crossfire, but actual kids in gangs that are shooting at each other on our streets every day.
I would be willing to wager that is the dominant contributor to the number of children that die by guns, yet we hear nothing about Democrats wanting to address that situation either.
