Default AR 15 vs Lawnmowers

Here’s another statistic from the New York Times article on AR-15s we told you about earlier. According to the Times, “Since 2007, at least 173 people have been killed in mass shootings in the United States involving AR-15s, according to a New York Times analysis.”

70 Americans are killed EVERY YEAR by lawnmowers. That's over 700 in the same time period.

"Constipation" — 2,167 deaths (since 1999)

"Fall involving bed" — 10,386 deaths (since 1999)

"Fall involving ice-skates, skis, roller-skates or skateboards" — 1,139 deaths (since 1999)
