Child Mortality In The U.S. Should Be Going Down, But It’s Rising.

Russia is moving tactical weapons into Belarus, China is launching military drills around Taiwan, Crime is spiraling out of control in the US, Mexican drug cartels are controlling the borders and mentally ill transgenders are shooting up schools.

You want my guns? Try to come get them.

The dollar is weak, our kids are dying from fentanyl, the economy is teetering on the brink.

But these yahoos obsess night and day about Trumps "34 charges" while Biden can't attend the Coronation because he'll crap his drawers during the ceremony.

That's where we are.

“Drug overdose deaths are highest in white children, generally speaking; car crash accidents [are] highest in Native American young people; and the homicide rates [are] markedly higher in African American youth,” Woolf said.

In these rising homicide deaths, the weapon is almost always a gun. Guns are also the cause of almost half of suicide deaths in young people ages 10 to 19.

Of youth gun deaths, about two-thirds are homicides and one-third are suicides, Sarah Burd Sharps, senior director of research at Everytown for Gun Safety, told HuffPost.

In 2020, shootings overtook car accidents as the number one cause of death for U.S. children and teens.

There are now entire regions without labor and delivery services now.
 
These filthy Illegals that the Democrat assholes are allowing to flood into this country are bringing a lot of death with them.

this is on you.
 
You ignore the cause of suicides, which is our crazy, toxic liberal culture

Ditto for homicides

Its not the gun, its the culture of single moms
Each person has their own issues, you inability to recognize the individual and try to group think a political slight shows an ignorance to the real reasons.

Here....the stats turning you into a liar.....

73.6 million children in 2020 in the United States



Unintentional gun deaths by gun ages <1 to 14..........from the Centers for Disease Control...



2020



93



Intentional gun murder ages <1-14.....



394



Intentional gun murder ages 15-19.....



(keeping in mind these are majority criminals, involved in gangs, drugs and other crime.....and when do you consider an 17,18, 19 year old a child?)




2,417



Unintentional motor vehicle deaths of children 2020.......



ages ....... <1-14



1,315



ages......15-19



2,638

Number of children in the U.S. 2021 | Statista

================
================

The National Gang Center (NGC), a function of the federal government, tells us that in recent years, between 35 and 41% of street gang members are under age 18. They also note that street gang recruitment begins at age 14, when the social effects of puberty take control (as well as early onset testosterone poisoning).



Ponder that: criminology separates teens from traditional children due to changing behaviors and capacities for risk. For guns, those demarcations should be enforced as well.



The CDC table above showed that for ages 0–14, guns were not a major risk. Hence, the inaccurate claim that “guns are the leading cause of death for children” includes teens, which means it has to include teenage street gang members.



Given what the NGC says about entry into street gangs (age 14), the percentages of gang members that are teens (minimum 35%), and that American street gangs are stupendously violent, you would expect to see gun homicides rise steeply in the teen years.



And it does.


Factor in that street gangs are largely metropolitan and that gun play between black street gangs is the worst of gang violence, and the rest of this chart makes even more sense.



Guns Not Leading Cause of Child Deaths | Gun Facts

==========



First of all, the number of firearm deaths for school-age children drops quite a bit when you do not include 18-year-olds.
---
Removing 18-year-olds would drop the gun death number to 28,559 — just slightly fewer than the total for the military and police.
----

In fact, 17- and 18-year-olds make up almost 56 percent of the gun deaths of school-age children. The numbers also drop significantly — 60 percent — if suicides are removed.
---
We are also wary when a single change in the data set — from age 18 to 17 — reduces the number enough that the statistic is no longer correct.

When you vote for democrats, you give them the power to enact their policies.....

1) attacking the police to the point they can't do their jobs....so criminals run free, with guns, to shoot each other and the innocent members of their families and friends....

2) Releasing the most violent gun criminals over and over again...the actual individuals using guns to murder people, usually each other....which is why blacks make up 7% of the population, but over 50% of all murderers, and the vast majority of murder victims are also young black males.....

You voted for both policies, then turn around and use the very policies you voted for to bitch about republicans, the party that didn't do either of those things........

You did this....

Yep.....but when the democrats decided to open the border, they put Chinese fentanyl and other drugs on super charge, as the drug cartels took over the border and flooded our country ..........
 
I stayed away from drugs when I was in my teens. I participated in sports and had a healthy diet. Too many young people today are misguided.

Of course, more children, by at least a few orders of magnitude, die from abortion than from all other causes combined.

What do you want to do about that? Or is your feigned concern about child mortality just a bullshit excuse to support a malevolent left wrong-wing agenda, that will only continue to result in more children dying needlessly?
