This is a troll. The bait is a dead kid blasted twice with a pensioner (well, if can't have been a shotgun can it, guns don't kill people)

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. Another 800 use guns to commit suicide, and more than 160 die in firearm accidents.

Forty per cent of American households own guns, but those guns are 22 times more likely to be involved in an accidental shooting, or 11 times more likely to be used in a suicide, than in self-defence. On average, more than 80 Americans are killed by gunfire every day.
Just for the avoidance of doubt, I don't really care if Americans have guns. I'm not hoping to disarm the population so Britain can invade (because, obviously, its only the private ownership of guns and not the many nuclear powered aircraft carrier battle groups that prevents us). I just like to see people arguing patently untenable positions.

Its a sort of legal in joke.
