"A child is killed by a gun every three hours in America. According
to the latest statistics, nearly 1,000 children under 19 are shot
dead every year.
No time to wade into this in any depth, but 1 child every 3 hours = 8
* 365 = 2920, not "nearly 1,000" -- Unless the first sentence uses
some other definition of "child" or "killed" or "gun" than the second
sentence.
Confusedly,
