Meanwhild YTD 790 people were shot "unintentionally" which I suppose means by accident.

572 children under the age of 11 were shot.

42,720 were killed or injured by guns.

Weigh all that against the 595 unicorns, er I mean defensive gun usages.

Then there's this from the NIH:

Individuals in possession of a gun were 4.46 times more likely to be shot in an assault than those not in possession. Among gun assaults where the victim had at least some chance to resist, this adjusted odds ratio increased to 5.45.

Two rainbow farting unicorns!

Ya' know what, why don't you just go here: https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/ There you can find each and every one of the 595 DGUs and the verified news report. All ya' gotta' do is sort through the 40,000 other dead and wounded.
