I ~hope~ my point is getting across here.... I am not saying that the child deaths from guns are a high number, nor even the TV fallings.... just pointing out the hypocrisy of the media acting like the 300 TV deaths to be a rare fluke, but then act as 500 from guns to be an epidemic.

Yeah, I got it, and I wasn't trying to ignore your point. It's just that the topic reminded me of something I had hoped I had forgotten.

TAM.... I too have a hard time "forgetting" the trauma cases of the little ones from my time on the ambulance. It's no fun revisiting those memories. I feel for those that still do that work every day.
It's not gun control that we need, it's soul control!
