"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.


You are overlooking bayonets and bludgeoning with the stock :-)
