In many cases, the children shot themselves, while others killed siblings or friends, according to the gun control advocacy group.

At least 157 people were killed and 270 were injured last year in unintentional shootings by children, according to Everytown, an advocacy group for firearm safety.

    But of course the answer isn’t major police reforms, it’s just “buy a gun and start blasting”.

    If you are in a marginalized group, cops are more likely to victimize you when you need help rather than actually helping.

    If you’re part of a marginalized group and holding a gun, they’ll kill you where you stand and there won’t even be a trial.
