school children not getting shot is still pretty low.

I don't know of any Americans that advocate for shooting of school children.

They said it's low importance to a ton of people, not that those people want the opposite.

I don't think that's really supported. It's not number one above all else, but I don't think you can infer ranking from action.

I would argue that for most people their personal safety and that of their family is near the top of the list over 90% of the issues. Gun murder still exist, but that just goes to show that safety isn't the number one goal

classic case of watch what they do, not what they say.

what does that mean in this context? What do you think it is above or below?
