This study was conducted for only a five-year period.
They speak about “mandated universal background checks” as if some states don’t even have UBCs.
From Yahoo (via USA Today): Children living in states with more restrictions on firearms are less likely to die from them, a new study says.
States with the strictest gun laws had about 40% fewer firearm-related deaths among children compared with states with the most lax laws, according to the study, published Monday in journal Pediatrics.
“This means, that we may be able to reduce the pediatric death toll in our country by nearly half with strengthened gun safety laws,” lead author Monika Goyal told USA TODAY.
Her team also found that states mandating universal background checks prior to gun purchases had 35% lower gun-related mortality rates in children.
Goyal, an epidemiologist and research director of the emergency division of Children’s National pediatric hospital in Washington, D.C., said she feels compelled to find ways to prevent gun violence – which many say has become a public health crisis. “As a pediatric emergency medicine physician, I personally have cared for too many children who have been unfortunate victims of gun violence,” she said.
Increasing gun-related deaths among children have become a key issue in the USA. A study released last fall found that firearm-related injuries were the second leading cause of deaths among children in the U.S. in 2016.
Rebecca Cunningham, lead author of the 2018 study and emergency medicine professor at the University of Michigan, said guns are especially dangerous around children because of a lack of maturity.
“Children and adolescents do not have the brain maturity to resist impulsive behavior successfully,” Cunningham said. “In other settings, this lack of mature impulse control is not fatal. When reaching for a gun as a toddler or as a depressed or angry teen, that impulsivity is often fatal due to the lethality of the firearms.”
The Pediatrics study found that 21,241 people under 21 died of firearm-related injuries from 2011 to 2015. This means more than 10 children die from gun violence every day, Goyal said.
Lars Dalseide, National Rifle Association spokesperson, said the NRA has made strong efforts to promote the safe and responsible use of firearms. One example is the Eddie Eagle GunSafe Program, a gun accident prevention program that teaches kids about gun safety.
Dalseide said he was skeptical of the study’s methods. “Any social scientist worth their salt has to question a study that cherry-picks a microscopic 5-year time window of data when there is more than 50 years of data available,” he said.
There’s still more work to be done in order to understand how legislation may effectively reduce gun-related deaths among children, Goyal said, but it’s a similar process to researching the relationship between car safety and laws.
“Just as we have invested in rigorous scientific research to inform policies related to motor vehicle passenger safety – which have in turn dramatically reduced the number of pediatric deaths from motor vehicle collisions – we must embrace the same evidence-based strategies if we wish to curtail the firearm epidemic in our country,” Goyal said.
Cunningham co-leads the Firearm-Safety Among Children & Teens Consortium (FACTS) researchers across the country working to prevent gun violence against children. She said it’s critical to pursue research into gun violence to gain a full understanding of the issue.
“We don’t have to accept the continued rise of deaths among our children and teens by firearm injury,” Cunningham said. “This is an addressable public health issue, that can be accomplished by injury prevention science while respecting the rights of our citizens.”

The Left and their complicit media lapdogs portray Conservatives as uneducated, violent rednecks.
By now, we have ample evidence that the opposite is actually the case. What the Left do is psychological projection — attributing their own faults and disposition to others.
Here is another instance of the Left assaulting Conservatives.
LifeNews reports that on April 22, 2019, during a campus outreach by the pro-life organization Created Equal at at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, a pro-abort woman vandalized the group’s signs. When one of the pro-life advocates tried to stop her from spray-painting the signs, she pushed him, yelled profanities at the group before driving away.
Police later arrested the woman, identified as Sasha Timofeeva, on charges of graffiti vandalism, assault and disorderly conduct.
Created Equal said in a statement:
[I]t’s not just the attack that is alarming but also the attacker’s response when police located her. She admits to premeditating the crime and that she was fully aware it was wrong. The assailant even laughs about a student encouraging her and how she doesn’t care how her victims felt.
The video of the incident taken by Created Equal shows Timofeeva yelling ““F— you, they’re triggering, they hurt people,” before she spray painted one of the signs.
A Created Equal member tried to stop Timofeeva from defacing his sign by asking her “Ma’am, don’t do this.”
Timofeeva responded: “F— you, and your stupid signs.”
The pro-life activist said “stop” and tried to take the spray paint from Timofeeva.
Timofeeva yelled “F— you and your stupid message,” and shoved the pro-life activist.
The activist said: “You just pushed me. You’re assaulting me. Stop.”
Timofeeva: “You just tried to grab my f—— spray paint. You going to tell the police that?”
Activist: “Because you’re spray painting our property. Yeah, I’m going to tell [the police].”
Timofeeva: “I don’t give a s—.”
The video also includes scenes from Timofeeva’s interview with police. She admits that the vandalism was premeditated — that after seeing the pro-life group, “I grabbed the paint and I drove back there.”
The police officer asks: “So you premeditated. And you intentionally sprayed their signs to damage them? You did that, knowing that you shouldn’t do that?”
Timofeeva replies: “Yeah, pretty much. Like, three girls walked by and they said that I’m a hero.”
Here’s the video:
Created Equal said its staff and volunteers regularly face threats of violence, vandalism and physical assault, and that they have seen an increase in the attacks in the past several months. Mark Harrington, the president and founder of Created Equal, said:
“Pro-abortion activists who commit violence must be held accountable. And thanks to the law enforcement in the video, that is exactly what is happening. We refuse to back down in the face of these threats. The escalation of pro-abortion violence has forced us to take additional security measures to protect our team.”

Late last month, photographer Ivan Pierre Aguirre posted on his Twitter account some pictures of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) he’d taken last year.
As recounted by Fox News, the pics supposedly were taken at a protest before a “migrant” detention center in Tornillo, Texas. One image is of AOC bent over in anguish; in another, her hands were covering her face.
AOC retweeted the pics, writing that she’ll “never forget this, because it was the moment I saw with my own eyes that the America I love was becoming a nation that steals refugee children from their parents, & caged them. More kids died after this. To date, no one has been held accountable. We need to save these kids.”
The pictures were ridiculed as there was no sight of actual migrant children. Some say the pics of AOC “protesting” near a chain-linked fence were staged, as she was looking onto what appears to be a mostly empty parking lot.
A social media user tweeted this about the above pic: “Did the cars cause all that pain and anguish?”
An AOC spokesman told The Hill that allegations that the photos were staged are “right-wing garbage” that are “in no way related to reality or truth”.

Then there is Hollyweirdo Angelina Jolie, who is lauded for her humanitarian work as a Special Envoy for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), for which she was recognized with a Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award and made an honorary Dame Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George, among other honors.
On June 7-8, 2019, Special Envoy Jolie visited Venezuelan refugees in camps along the Colombian-Venezuelan border (Daily Mail).
I had the below GIF made from a video of her visit, showing Jolie walking alongside a young girl. The girl had a big smile on her face as she looked up admiringly at Jolie. Then the girl made the mistake of bumping her arm against Jolie who, with her hand, deftly and quickly flicked the girl away. Watch the smile fade from the girl’s face.
Friggin’ hypocrites, AOC and Jolie.

LifeNews reports that on July 9, 2019, calling killing unborn babies “sacred work,” a group of ten Christian (Presbyterian, Episcopalian, Unitarian Universalist, United Church of Christ, Disciples of Christ) and Jewish (Reform and Reconstructionist) clergy gathered to “bless” an Austin, Texas abortion clinic — the Whole Woman’s Health, an abortion chain known for numerous health and safety violations.
Rev. Amelia Fulbright, a campus minister of the “ecumenical” “Christian” Labyrinth Progressive Student Ministry at the University of Texas, said the “blessing” was organized to encourage the “patients” as well as the abortion workers:
“The first and foremost goal was to say that we support you and the work that you’re doing, especially in a state where you’re constantly having to meet new regulations or deal with critics and protesters. As people of faith, it’s not that we think we’re bringing God to this place; we believe God is already present in that space. But it’s to ask for prayers of safety, healing and peace, to infuse the space with an energy that is life-giving for women, a lot of whom are in an anxious time.”
Fulbright said one of the most meaningful moments during the “blessing” was was when her 4-month-old baby became hungry. She said being able to nurse her child in that setting, surrounded by people who understood the importance of being able to choose motherhood, illustrated to her that abortion clinics are a “life-affirming space” and that “It paints a different picture than what the anti-abortion movement would like you to think happens in abortion clinics.”
The “blessing” was organized by the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice (RCFRC) and Texas Freedom Network.
Rev. Katey Zeh, a Baptist minister and executive director of RCFRC, said abortion is “sacred work” and the abortion clinic is a “blessed space”. She writes:
The Whole Woman’s Health clinic in Austin is also a blessed space, not only because of our ritual of blessing on Tuesday but because providing reproductive health services has always been sacred work.
Zeh claims “compassion” means supporting pregnant women who abort their unborn babies:
“Because our prophetic teachings emphasize caring for our neighbors, progressive faith communities are called to respond to pregnant people with compassion and affirmation. We know that making reproductive decisions can be hard work spiritually and emotionally, yet we believe God accepts the decisions of conscience each person makes.”

Elle magazine has an interview with Miley Cyrus that covers every woke topic: climate change, sexism, abortion, housing inequality, etc.
Excerpts from the article:
“My record is called She Is Miley Cyrus. ‘She’ does not represent a gender. She is not just a woman. ‘She’ doesn’t refer to a vagina. She is a force of nature. She is power. She can be anything you want to be, therefore, she is everything. She is the super she. She is the she-ro. She is the She-E-O.”
“I think it’s very confusing to people that I’m married. But my relationship is unique. And I don’t know that I would ever publicly allow people in there because it’s so complex, and modern, and new that I don’t think we’re in a place where people would get it. I mean, do people really think that I’m at home in a fucking apron cooking dinner? I’m in a hetero relationship, but I still am very sexually attracted to women. People become vegetarian for health reasons, but bacon is still fucking good, and I know that. I made a partner decision. This is the person I feel has my back the most. I definitely don’t fit into a stereotypical wife role. I don’t even like that word.”
“I have a new song, “Never Be Me,” and the chorus says, “If you’re looking for faithful, that’ll never be me. If you’re looking for stable, that’ll never be me. If you’re looking for someone that’ll be all that you need, that’s never going to be me.”
“She laments the expectation this puts on the female sex: “We’re expected to keep the planet populated. And when that isn’t a part of our plan or our purpose, there is so much judgment and anger that they try to make and change laws to force it upon you—even if you become pregnant in a violent situation. If you don’t want children, people feel sorry for you, like you’re a cold, heartless bitch who’s not capable of love.” Cyrus hates the word selfish. “Why are we trained that love means putting yourself second and those you love first? If you love yourself, then what? You come first.”
“We’ve been doing the same thing to the earth that we do to women. We just take and take and expect it to keep producing. And it’s exhausted. It can’t produce. We’re getting handed a piece-of-shit planet, and I refuse to hand that down to my child. Until I feel like my kid would live on an earth with fish in the water, I’m not bringing in another person to deal with that.”

You deserve what you vote for, Chiraq.
You have countless shootings EVERY DAY, EVERY WEEKEND – and that includes children being shot and killed.
Yet you elected a progressive mayor who is now promising to protect illegal aliens – and their children.
Heaven forbid Mayor Lightfoot actually do something about addressing the gang and gun violence that plagues U.S. citizens throughout your city.
From WGN TV: Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Chicago business groups are taking steps to protect undocumented immigrants in the city.
They said Chicago will not help federal agents track them down. “It’s not about being confrontational with the Trump administration, but it’s 100% about being supportive of our immigrant community,” Lightfoot said at a Wednesday morning news conference.
Chicago, with its status as a Sanctuary City, has drawn criticism from President Donald Trump and his Justice Department.
But the mayor said her focus is the children. “A lot of these issues regarding immigration and the fear and uncertainty about what’s happening is falling disproportionately and harshly on our children,” Lightfoot said.
“What this is doing is scaring restauranteurs and scaring team members,” Sam Toia of the Illinois Restaurant Association said. Toia and other prominent business and health leaders announced their unwavering support for Chicago’s immigrant communities.
Critics of the federal crackdown on undocumented immigrants have called the plan heavy-handed and poorly executed.

As I checked the shooting numbers in Chiraq over the holiday weekend (mostly from MyFoxChicago), the numbers kept going up, up and up! Good thing Chicago Police added 1,500 officers to the streets for the holiday weekend…
Mayor Lightfoot’s “Accountability Monday” meeting should be a blast…
Friday morning: 3 stabbed, 14 trampled at Navy Pier after Fourth of July fireworks (no shootings yet bonus gang violence in the form of knife attacks)
Friday morning: 16 shot, 2 fatally in Fourth of July gun violence across Chicago
Friday at 4:00 pm: 34 shot — 4 fatally — over Fourth of July weekend
Saturday at 6:30 pm: 41 shot — 5 fatally — over Fourth of July weekend
Sunday morning: No total shot headline on MyFoxChicago but the headline from Chicago Tribune: Multiple victims the norm in shootings Saturday into Sunday as holiday weekend wears on (18 people were shot from Saturday to Sunday in a night that saw several bursts of gun violence on the South Side that left three or more people wounded by a single shooter at least three times)
Sunday at 3:00 pm: 64 shot — 5 fatally — over Fourth of July weekend
Sunday at 6:00 pm: 66 shot — 5 fatally — over Fourth of July weekend
Sunday at 9:00 pm: 68 shot, 5 fatally, in 4th of July weekend gun violence across Chicago
For the final grand total number of shootings, see heyjackass.com.
