in response to Antibody's post Source for your data?
Above stats are US only and considered conservative numbers. 2/3 of children worldwide are trafficked for labor and estimated to be 170m kids in total between labor and sex trade.
Meanwhile mass shootings are about 280 a year and more than 1/2 of those are gang shootings that happen in Chicago alone. If gun violence is a huge problem that deserves a natl platform from political parties child trafficking deserves it 10x over.

You moved the goalpost. A gun death is a gun death. 20,958 were still murdered.

Not saying which is worst, just your number of victims is off. You posted "gun violence and shootings", not just "mass shootings"

no, conflating suicide with being harmed by others is moving the goal post. If your concern is a person being victimized by another you...

You're siding with QAnon advocates (delusional bigots and superstitious slack-jaws). If there is a problem, these guys aren't the sources

"gun violence" includes suicide. It also includes arm robbery, which is at least another 50,000 in 2021.

These guys are QAnon kooks, lathering up the slack-jaws. We'll make fun of QAnon chuckleheads all day long, then all night. {nm}
