I don’t have the statistics in front of me, but at one point I sourced them and was able to show that the risk of a child two years old or younger drowning in a bucket was significantly higher than being unintentionally killed with a firearm. Following your logic here, if you have a toddler and a bucket at home, it would reduce your toddler’s overall risk profile if you bought a gun and shot holes in the bucket. In other words, there’s a lot more that goes into using statistics to inform behavior than merely seeing what group you happen to be included in for a single breakdown.
