Way more people are run down by cars while crossing the street, but the media has decided to get hysterical over a blue moon.

Top two causes of under-18 death in the US are guns and cars.

Those stats call “children” 19 years old and younger.

So all those 18 and 19 year old “children” gang bangers are included in the statistic.
