What's that supposed to mean?

I shall try again:

I was thinking more about the real kids that were killed with guns - ie
those who were under 16.


But if we
use your stats. Compare them with the UK figures like you did before. I have
a hunch the death rate in the USA will be 100 times higher than in the UK?
Like I said before, shocking.

OK, show me.  Find the numbers of violent deaths of children for the US and the
UK and compare them.  I'm not that interested in the number of gun deaths,
because dying from a bullet is no worse than being clubbed (and often better).
Show me the per capita child death rates and we can talk.

Why? Do you think I am wrong?
