Finally, using a more common definition of child (under 13) we get
the following numbers:
Total Population: ~52 million
Accidental Firearm Deaths: 31
Homicide by Firearm: 146
Legal Intervention/Firearms 0
Suicide by Firearms: 16
Unknown Intent by Firearms 5
Total by firearms 198
Using this definition of child, just less than 4 children a week are
killed by guns. The chance of an individual child being killed is
slightly less than 4 in a million per year.
Many of whom, frankly, deserved it. :-)
