| By German Lopez New York Times Many Americans are so accustomed to the daily toll of gun violence that they may not realize how much of an outlier the U.S. is for anything related to firearms. Outside of mass shootings like the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School (which happened 10 years ago yesterday), killings of children rarely get much attention. So I want to explain how different the U.S. is when it comes to gun deaths among teenagers and younger children. Guns are now the No. 1 cause of deaths among American children and teens, ahead of car crashes, other injuries and congenital disease. In other rich countries, gun deaths are not even among the top four causes of death, a recent Kaiser Family Foundation report found. The U.S. accounts for 97 percent of gun-related child deaths among similarly large and wealthy countries, despite making up just 46 percent of this group’s overall population. |

Again with the guns. So what is the plan? People need to be held accountable for their actions. A firearm is just a tool much like a screwdriver. Both can kill. It just takes longer with the screwdriver.
Seems to me a real reporter could have done this story without ripping it off from the NY Times.
just sayin
Former US Marine death row inmate eats pork chops, peach cobbler and Pillsbury Grands biscuits for his final meal before he is executed by lethal injection for the rape and murder of 16-year-old girl in 2000
Thomas Loden, 58, was covered by a white head sheet during his execution.
(Meanwhile, vets in Brownsville keep drinking)
Whooopie, let keep electing gun toting racist republicans again and again, I guess until there are no more children left in this country of cowboy western way of thinking.
Every sunday when the majestic was open you'd see a lot of gringo werquitos wearing toy gun holsters with plastic guns, some would wear those double gun holsters and dressed up like their gun hero wyatt earp, jessie james etc. Now you see the same gringos with aks and ars.
The western tv shows are back on TV so you know what that means, gringos again wearing their pistolas. Take time and watch one of those western tv shows on GRID. They kill people every 10 seconds just like eating popcorn and the gun drawing duals (which is a lie never happened) walking down dirt street, elizabeth street. WOW what suspense.
PINCHES GRINGOS MENTIROSOS AND ALL RACIST REPUBLICANS FACT!

How many of those deaths happened in places run by Democrats? How many of those happened where there was stricter gun control than the rest of the country? In how many of those school shootings were safety protocols broken? How many of those shooters were known to do nothing cops? Who's going to protect you when cops are defunded and criminals are no longer prosecuted? Some children can be killers. No need to count those who are justifiably killed as victims.
So called journalists can ask many questions, but not the right ones.

Places run by Democrats?
What hole are you living in, moron? It's all happening in the USA, your home and your politics. Trying to segment the problem does not make it only one side's problem!
We're all fucked!

I don't think that the homeless hillbillies from in Brownsville read El Rrun Rrun.
"If you outlaw guns only the outlaws will have guns."
Those that are homeless, much like those who are gay
are suffering from some form of mental illness. They need medical help. They don't need idiots putting them down. Who knows, someday you may end up in that same predicament.
Bobby Wightman-C complains about "insults," yet how many times did he call Juan a "drunk" on his blog? How many times did he call El Jerry a "porn blogger"?
No, don't pity this fool - insult his ass!!!
The tired old trope that it takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun was pretty much disproved, again, at Uvalde. That society needs more guns to protect ourselves against armed bad guys is like curing an infection by putting more bacteria on it. It will not help and may kill you.
A good guy with a gun killed the Uvalde shooter. Stupid chicanos couldn't prosecute him for animal cruelty to prevent him from buying a gun. You're the pendejos Dr. Anthony Knopp talked about all the time. Do you babosos work for the cartel?
Hillbillys are not here why? because they can't write and espikie they have no front teeth. baboso its a taco idiota moron gringo hillbilly coco. HAMBORGUS where you live pinche mojado wanna be whitey🐒🐒🐒🐀🐀🐀🐀🌶️🌶️🌶️🪠🪠💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
There are over 393 million guns in the hands of civilians. If you’re plan is to disarm the population, which will never happen, how would you intent to do it? Go door to door?
The hillbillys do have newpapers and they use it for (you know what).
limpia papel
CDC reports that 55% of gun deaths are from suicides. Your blog fuckin sucks bro. It's people like you that have our community fucked up, with your partisan "local new blog." You're no better than the politicians you try to slander, because you know what your doing is biased.
