We can all agree we need to have decreased gun violence in the U.S. Gun violence is the leading cause of death of adolescents and young adults.

Su***de is a top cause of death among adolescents and tweens. Fi****ms are the most common mode to end their lives. Children 10-17 years old who use a gun for su***de are 10x more likely to use an unlocked & loaded parental gun. Please consider locking up guns and storing the ammunition separately.
