Laughable documentary

This whole thing is hilarious. Any parent who raises kids who are stupid enough to shoot themselves should be held criminally liable for not educating their kids about something so prevalent in our society.

Full of distortions, irrational appeals to emotions and whatnot.

This documentary literally claims more children die from accidental gun wounds in the home every year than did soldiers in the Vietnam war. This is absolutely, totally, blatantly false.

More kids drown in swimming pools every year than die from gunshots.

I might also add, that in the FBI Bureau of Crime statistics, they define ''children'' as ANYBODY YOUNGER THAN 20 Years Old. What does that tell you?
