the anti gun movement has a new campaign that says guns don't kill, toddlers do....and hilary used this at the debate when she attacked the Heller decision....
Big problem.....the statistics the anti gun group uses....lists children 4-19 as toddlers.....
This is why we don't trust anti gunners...they lie...they lie about every single aspect of guns, gun owners and gun issues...there isn't one aspect in the gun debate that they do not lie about, make up fake research, or distort actual research....this isn't just blind attacks against them...we have shown over the years the actual facts, statistics and reality of the situation in the United States and how they actually lie...this is no different...
Gun Control Group’s ‘Toddlers Kill’ Campaign Pads Death Stats With Adults
The Brady Campaign launched its “Toddlers Kill” campaign on Monday with a series of online video and image ads. It simultaneously launched ToddlersKill.org, which features a variety of claims about children and firearms. The public relations campaign is meant as a sarcastic play on common gun rights arguments. One of the campaign’s taglines is “guns don’t kill people, toddlers kill people.”
The campaign’s ads exclusively use imagery of toddlers and young children, but some of its gun violence statistics include incidents having nothing to do with children.
---------
The CDC’s 2014 National Vital Statistics Report records starkly different incidence of firearm-related death for children and young adults.
The agency breaks its data down into four age categories for individuals under age 24: Under 1 year old, 1 to 4 years old, 5 to 14 years old, and 15 to 24 years old.
Fifty children under age 14 were killed in accidental shootings in 2014, while nearly three times as many, or 148, people between ages 15 and 24 were killed in accidental shootings. The same holds true for firearms homicides. Five children under 1 year old, 47 children between the ages 1 and 4, and 173 children between the ages of 5 and 14 were murdered, while 3,587 people between the ages of 15 and 24 were murdered in the same time period.
The age contrast for firearms suicides was even more pronounced, with no deaths recorded for children under age 4, 174 deaths for children between ages 5 and 14, and 2,270 deaths for people age 15 and 24.
The Brady Campaign said its message is not confined to just toddlers, though the campaign’s website is named ToddlersKill.org.
