More Kids Suffer Firearm Injuries Than Researchers Previously Believed, Study Finds

Reference: http://abcnews.go.com/Health/guns-wound-30-percent-kids-study-finds/story?id=14741514

Summary: New research finds that 30% more kids suffer from gun related injuries. Each year mom than 20,000 children are admitted to emergency rooms for gunshot injuries. Researcher’s new discovery found that boys of the age of 12 who are not white are more likely of being in a gun related injury.

Critique: I think this is bad thing and certainly affects the youth off the world. Many kids should be able to go to school and feel safe from gun injuries but many are not.

Impact: this has an impact on the kids of today in a major way. We must stand up for the protection of kids from guns in schools today. Many kids are bullied and most often can only find a resolve through guns. Others are mistake taken in a big way. Whatever it may be we must not let this new found research affect our schools.
