Death by "Assault Rifle" in 2016 - 264 (slightly higher than average)

On average Assault Rifle Deaths are less than 2% of death by gun for a given year.

Handguns and Shotguns far outperform rifles for homicides.

In 2017, 3964 children were shot (99% by inner city crime using handguns).

(statistics from a huffpo article - google assault rifle death statistics).

Hundreds of people have died from Tide Pods in 2017 and over 100 deaths by Tide Pods have occurred in 2018 ALONE!!!!

(There aren't official numbers for death by tide pods but the count was over 150 so far this year)

Last year over 12k "unintentional" poisonings using Tide Pods - over 700 were permanently injured/killed.

Yes they have - not all of them were teens taking the challenge - many still toddlers thinking it's candy.

sigh....I love guns, but your research is flawed. there have been many sick kids, but only 8 known deaths since they were introduced.
