    Second, firearms is not the leading cause of death for children. It was during covid because of how many people weren’t driving and how depressed people got from being stuck inside and not being able to socialize.

    Look up the definition of children used here. Also look at suicide and homicides as part of that larger number. There’s a lot of context that points to the fact that the root cause (obviously) isn’t the tool, but the system the tools exist in.
