    Also, there’s like 1000 billionaires. 500 kids a month aren’t getting shot.

        7 a day, works out to about 200 a month

        Sickening figure that in my opinion, doesn’t change at all when moving between 200 and 500. One is too fucking many

          Maybe. It depends on how the OP statement is conceptualized. They specify “school kids” and school is only in session about half of days. Also, people over the age of 17 attend school and it isn’t uncommon to refer to someone in their 20s as a “kid”. Even worst case scenario for OP, we’re talking the difference of four months versus two months. I’m not sure that’s a hill to die on or even point out.
