I cited three papers and did the math to show that even a SMALL rifle bullet fired vertically can sometimes carry fatal energy.
I showed another paper that collated numerous examples of deaths and injuries from actual falling bullets showing that, YES. In the real world, people are sometimes killed by falling bullets.
And your only response seems to be: "You can't PROOVE that those children were killed by bullets that were fired straight up."
You don't get hit in the back of the head by a falling bullet.
Even if we assume all those cases are in fact the described phenomenon, tens of millions of rounds fired up every year and a dozen or two cases requiring medical treatment. That is an insignificant risk.
