Don't believe everything they say

"Another year brings about another opportunity for gun control
activists and their media lackeys to manipulate CDC fatal injury data
to push a misleading factoid on children and firearms.

This is how it works: Step one, acquire statistics on firearm-related
deaths among children ages 1-14. Step two, combine that relatively low
number with the far greater number of firearm-related deaths involving
juveniles and young adults ages 15-19, or even ages 15-24. Step three,
present the resulting data as the shocking number of “children” (ages
1-19 or 1-24) who are subjected to “gun violence” each
day/week/month/year. Step four, use the disingenuous statistic to
advocate for pre-determined gun control policies."

The most brilliant propaganda technique will yield no success unless
one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly-- it must
confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over.
