25 in 25 aborted unborn children won’t even see 5 years old and never have a chance to live.
Spare me your faux moral outrage and the NRA boogeyman narrative.

ridiculous.
1 in 50 aren't killed by guns.
And the NRA has about as much to do with gun deaths as AAA does highway accidents.

And what percentage of non-aborted, unwanted children ruin the lives of their mothers especially if they're forced by the state to deliver? What percentage grow up in a humane way? What percentage are destined for the school to prison pipeline? What percentage are neglected? What percentage are physically and/or sexually abused? What percentage go on to continue the cycle of despair from whence they came?
What percentage grow up in a loving family with a personal relationship with Jesus and a conservative republican worldview?
Don't like abortion? Don't have one. Otherwise, get your creepy, grubby, moral outrage off of my daughter's body!

You want to talk about morals when it comes to abortion, but actively support policy that leads to American children being mowed down by ARs on a daily basis.
Do you feel you have morals with your position supporting continued school shootings?

Guns are not the root cause of this. They simply aren’t.
Re: 1 in 25 5 YOs in America will die by age 40.
Let’s do some real math..
Let’s assume there 180 “mass shootings” and all of these involve an AR “style” rifle.
There are over 20 million AR’s in the US.
Therefore, the percentage of AR’s used in a mass shooting (with the above assumption) is 0.0009%.
There are 334 million people in the US. Rounded (including suicides) there are 40,000 gun (of all kinds) related deaths. Therefore the percentage of gun related deaths to population is 0.012%.
This “epidemic” is statistically insignificant and the false narrative of it is based on emotional claptrap.
