I didn’t say it “never” happened. I said it’s rare in comparison to how many people are killed by firearms annually. That’s an objective fact of reality. I’m sorry that it triggers you so.
Does that statistic distinguish between suicides, accidents, and violence? I am not saying your wrong but very often suicides are not excluded when IMPO they shouldn't count, since those people would be just as dead by rope or bridge.
