Lawmakers must accurately measure the problem of children and weapons to ensure that any new legislation reduces rather than increases harm.Alarmist claims that “attacks of childhood violence know no boundaries” are untrue. Firearms figures in less than 1% of all deaths of children under 15 Gun-related homicide is very high for inner city black men aged 16-19 years. Measures must be tailored to the specific problem, rather than being comprehensive and symbolic.
