The lives of our children is a small price to pay for your freedom to own 27 semi-automatic weapons.
The lives of 800,000 Americans is a small price to pay for your freedom to go maskless and defy vaccines.
You are freedom fighters. You have sacrificed...... oh wait, absolutely nothing.
Discuss.

How many times per year are backyard pools used to murder people as opposed to guns?
How many times have kids at school been killed when some mixed up kid snuck a backyard pool into school, then pulled it out of his backpack and started indiscriminately killing his fellow students with it?
Who are you... of all people.... to call anyone else a "stupid fucking goddamn bastard"?
I hope you get pistol whipped then shot through both kneecaps with your own gun someday.
Soon.
C'MON MAN!!!!

I would add that having a backyard pool is not a constitutional right. You are required by state and local authorities to take certain precautions to prevent accidental deaths. That being said, there are far more ACCIDENTAL gun deaths in the US every year than there are swimming pool drownings. That's not really the point. I support the right of Americans to own a firearm. I believe there need to be limits and additional regulations related to that right, but what's a few dead kids when weighed against the unlimited right to own a gun without any training or background checking. Small price as I said.

True
But a gun is,,,,, u stupid bald headed fucking POS
There are an estimated 350 million privately owned firearms in America. In 2017, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported 486 fatal injuries from unintentional discharges of a firearm. That yields a rate per 100,000 firearms of 0.14.
There are an estimated 10.4 million private swimming pools in the United States. In 2017, the CDC reported 3,709 accidental drownings. That yields a rate per 100,000 pools of 35.66.
486 Americans died from unintentional firearm injuries — about 1.2% of total gun deaths.2 ALL AGES

On average, there were about 400 reported pool/spa drowning deaths among children younger than age 15 each year from 2016 through 2018, according to new CPSC data.

Lot more guns than pools!!!! Pools kill more kids than guns
Pools: more dangerous for children than guns
A child is 100 times more likely to drown in a pool than be killed by a gun
