    An average of like 10-15 children die every day in US due to being shot. Sure there are more that survive but look like SpongeBob here.

      Thats a pretty solid dark joke. Itd also be more realistic and darker if spongebob was black.

      “Children” in that stat includes gang members and suicides. Still bad things, but don’t misrepresent what’s going on.

        How is counting dead children misrepresenting what is going on? Dead is dead. When I say I want fewer guns it is because I want fewer deaths, gang members and depressed kids included.
