The data comes from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/nchs\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"obama-newsom-repeat-lie-guns-are-number-one-killer-of-children\" title=\"Obama, Newsom Repeat Lie: 'Guns Are Number One Killer of Children'\">CDC&#8217;s National Center for Health Statistics<\/a> and is based on data from the year 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What gun control advocates do to balloon the figures is include 18 and 19-year-olds.  Adults aren&#8217;t children.  But they are conveniently counted as children in their tally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the 3,610 children and adults under the age of 20 who died from firearm-related injuries in the United States in 2019, 76.4% (2,759) were individuals aged 15-19, while 23.6% (851) were children aged 0-14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the 15-19 age group, 18.1% (498) were aged 15-17, while 62.6% (2,261) were aged 18-19.  As you can see, including the adults really distorts the data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We are failing our children.
