In 1997, the National Center for Health Statistics listed homicide as the fourth leading cause of death for children ages 1 through 4, third for youth ages 5 through 14, and second for persons ages 15 through 24. Guns in this country cause the death of approximately 12 young people (those 19 years of age and under) each day. The overall firearm-related death rate among children under the age of 15 is nearly 12 times higher than among children in 25 other industrialized countries combined. nccev.org
