Firearm injury 2nd: how to know this is US data without it being labeled as US data.
correct! And even in USA where there is a mass shooting like every day, the car is worse than firearms
Not if you're under 24, and in the good ole US of A, it would seem. Even in the graph above, urban areas are more likely to result in gun violence than automotive injury.
indeed! just to clarify: by no means do i want to defend firearm practices there. Interesting graph - especially the development in recent years! ๐ฐ
