Somewhat off-topic, but an interesting comment from your link:

Only eight states went without a firearms-related incident in a school in 2021, Colliton said. The states which saw the most were Illinois, California, New York and North Carolina, in that order.
Telling isn't it that the 3 states with the most "firearms related incidents in schools" are also some of the most "anti-gun" states in the nation, isn't it?
I DON'T TRUST SAFEHOME.ORG BUT INFO IS INTERESTING. GUN SALES UP 12,000,000+ and GUN DEATHS UP 15,000. BAD, BUT NOT AS BAD AS MEDIA WANTS THE WORLD TO BELIEVE

Gun owners are killing themselves more often than ever before. But surely gun rights supporters strongly support gun owners having the right to shoot themselves dead when their lives are so full of utter misery that they don't want to try to live another day. Miserable, suicidal gun owners must never have their guns confiscated.

No, not really. California and New York are among the top 5 most populated states.

They should break down those deaths into what % of the 15K were illegal guns

and do you feel the same way about drug users?
by the way, i have a few guns and haven’t killed myself yet. they magically dont jump out of their cases and shoot me either. amazing.
So, surely gun shop owners always want a Democrat for president, in order to keep gun sales HUGE!
The proprietor where I bought my three weapons in 2020 stated exactly that. Gun sales flourish when Dems are in office as people feel less safe and realize the need to protect themselves when they realize their government is incapable and unwilling to do so.
