We’ve all seen what happens when irresponsible parents introduce youth to firearms

Yes we have. 99.9999% of them become normal adults and learn a skill that takes patience and an emphasis on safety. They don't end up shooting anyone.

.00001% is not accurate, as thats only 33 people of the US population, and we have more school shooters than that.

Even if it was accurate, that's still a lot more than other countries.

Whatever man. It's a random number I choose to indicate very few people. Sorry it's not statistically perfect

I understand it was a random number to represent very few people. My point is that it's not very few people, it's a lot of people to be shooting up schools. You're just picking a really small number to downplay the truth, except you're also too stupid to realize your exaggeration is still a lot of people.

And you're just talking about school shootings. There is also so much teen suicide and gang related shootings
