"at least 1 out of 400 shot everyday"
365 shots per 400 people per year
or 9.1 shots per 1 person per decade

The AVERAGE American has over 9 gunshot wounds? Man things are getting bad in the US.

Note: The other statistics seem to mostly check out (see another guy's comment about that), which is great. It's just weird the gun one is so astronomically inaccurate.

Yep. I addressed this in a reply. I think he was thinking 1/400 evey year and then forgot where he was in the thought process.

Well it's more like:

The two trans people have decided that anything except complete obliging agreement with everything they say is a hate crime and contributes to their genocide
The two trans people join every discussion ever to point out how they are the ones worst affected then go to point 1
The two trans people have appointed themselves the only arbiters of what gender is and see point 1
The two trans people don't ever engage in good faith and are just trying to bait you into disagreeing with them yet again see point 1
