Although the American population has more than tripled since 1903 and sales of firearms hit record after record during President Obama’s gun-grabbing years, according to the National Safety Council, accidental shooting deaths in 2015 hit an all-time low of 489. That is a TOTAL of 489, and the lowest figure since these numbers first started to be recorded in 1903.
Overall, in 2015, there were 146,571 accidental deaths in America (cars, prescription drugs, falls), meaning the 489 firearms deaths ranks somewhere close to a statistical zero.
