Unveiling the Truth: Examining Claims of 100,000 Children Lost to Gun Violence or Overdoses

Braden Langley from Langley Outdoors Academy dissects a recent gun control study, highlighting its claim that nearly 100,000 children lost parents to gun violence or drug overdoses in 2020. He critiques the study for relying on estimates rather than concrete data, suggesting a manipulation of figures to support a specific narrative.

Langley points out the study's method of mixing causes of death to create a misleading impact, using "imaginary numbers" to back a gun control agenda. He underscores the disparity between the study’s dramatic headlines and the actual evidence, showcasing the use of misinformation to sway public opinion.

In his conclusion, Langley encourages viewers to critically evaluate such studies and remain vigilant against deceptive tactics used by gun control advocates. He emphasizes the need to challenge distorted narratives and expresses confidence in the continuing strength of the pro-gun rights movement.
