Pop Quiz!Can you guess what (type of) item has been the leading direct cause of death among Children and Adolescents in the US since 2019?Tip: in US you can easily order it online and get delivered to your door by impersonating your parent, though in many households it's already present, waiting for a child to find it.Another tip: It's NOT Kinder Surprise because these are banned by FDA. Otherwise choking would surely be nr. 1!...Don't say it 😢#LandOfTheFree

@unfa My guess is chemicals such as bleach or ammonia. I would say firearms but those can't be shipped to your door it's against Federal law unless you are an FFL dealer.

@splitshockvirus @unfa Guns surpassed traffic accidents in 2020. They can be ordered online, but you can't have them delivered to your door.https://www.kff.org/global-health-policy/issue-brief/child-and-teen-firearm-mortality-in-the-u-s-and-peer-countries/

@splitshockvirus There's been numerous cases in US of adolescent school shooters acquiring firearms by ordering them online in their parent's name. I don't suppose they got them on a black market. I may be wrong.

@splitshockvirus Maybe the law changed since the cases I've heard about took place?

@unfa 'MERICAN here. I had no idea that one could just order online. Did a search and sure enough, "Free Shipping". Holy hell that's depressing.

@unfa mail ordering firearms being shipped to your door has been illegal since 1968. In order to have a firearm "ship to your door" it needs to get shipped to an FFL dealer (a gun store) then you go to said gun store do a transfer, fill out a form 4473 and do a background check. At which point it doesn't matter if you were impersonating your dad, a 16-17 y/o is not going to look like a 30-40 y/o.That's how all legitimate gun purchases online work. Anything other than what I just described and you are going to need to do a little more than simple impersonation to a firearm shipped to your door if you are 17.Example: "4oz of weed for your hi-point 40 cal meet me at the park 23:00" replace weed for monero if you want, the situation is still illegal under the circumstances of someone underage.
