ORIGINAL: WickedsDesire What is your dead child limit Boscox & all you other gun nutters. 1 Child 10 Children 100 Children 1,000 Children 1,500 Children Tell me when I am getting warm? 2,000? 5,000? 10,000 40, 000 What about this one? Mind you if you include adults you are already there, and thats dead not seriously injured, which iand addition > 100 000 per year Honest question to all I usually have you on hide because...well let's face it...you're usually even more idiotic than Tweakabell. I must have clicked the wrong button for you to show up. But, here you are. We're working on banning cars, swimming pools, bathtubs and high places first. https://www.childtrends.org/indicators/unintentional-injuries/ quote:
The most common causes of fatal injuries differ among age groups. For instance, although suffocation is the most common type of fatal injury among infants (83 percent, in 2012), it accounts for only one percent of unintentional fatalities among adolescents ages 15 to 19. While only six percent of fatal injuries among infants are due to motor vehicle crashes, they account for 66 percent among adolescents. While drowning is the most common cause of fatal injury among children ages one to four (31 percent), for adolescents drowning accounts for seven percent of fatal injuries. Other notably common types of injury are poisoning among adolescents (accounting for 15 percent of fatal injuries), and fire and burn injuries among one- to four- and five- to nine-year-olds (seven and ten percent of fatal injuries, respectively). Of course, as right wing wing nuts we are also trying to ban mothers that work and don't watch their kids themselves. Guns can come after the big stuff. http://www.nber.org/digest/dec99/glied.html quote:
Examining all these factors, Glied concludes that governmental regulations, though not unimportant, explain "relatively little" of the significant decline in child mortality. She reckons that improvements in the information on child safety given parents (some derived from regulations) are "a more probable cause" of the decline. When publicly-funded epidemiologists and statisticians identify frequent causes of injury and that information becomes widely available, parents rapidly make use of their new knowledge to assure the safety of their children. Those measures offset the fact that more mothers are working and fewer are married in the 1990s, and thus have less time to watch their children personally, than in the 1960s. Parents' time has become a less important factor in producing health, Glied writes. Now that I'm gagging dealing with the loony leftist kool aid you spew, back to hide you go.
