Good point, even though the numbers don't check out.

There were 69 children killed this year. 813 billionaires in the US. It would take almost 12 years.

Edit: These are only the school shootings, not the all deaths of minors

Where did you get that number? John Hopkins is reporting 48,204 gun deaths for people aged 0-17 in 2022.

My mistake, I was only looking at the school shootings.
