Too bad the Moms didn't think to pack up some logic along with the Pampers and the sunscreen. Because the facts in the matter defeat the contentions. There always is when two or more soccer moms gather. But nobody quoted the statistics. Nobody mentioned that children aren't killed with guns.
More children die from bicycle accidents each year than from firearms accidents.
Five times as many drown or die of burns. And automobiles cause 15 times as many deaths among children as firearms. Yet, again, the evidence contradicts the proposal. That frequency too is an illusion. In fact, school violence is at an all-time low.
