9:35 pm
louisville kentucky is the closest major city to cumberland county. this is where caroline spock's is ambulance was headed when she passed away. there's the emergency room and travel and of course all of the added. i'm down that way and they will stop right at the door so close are tolerant to resell as is a board member of the co's at children's hospital in louisville every day the hospital is confronted with the downside of mask on possession in the state of kentucky. how many children a year are coming to us hospitals that show up every single year in the united states fifteen thousand children come into hospital with the young daughters. fifteen thousand children and if you build in the united states with adults it's thirty two thousand people are killed with a gun every single year in the united states mazing miles incredible and all
9:36 pm
preventable what kind of shot once you get in this hospital. because we are a level one trauma center we get the most critical gunshot wounds of all gunshot wounds that happen in the state of kentucky and when we talk about this picture of a child's picture was shot in the middle of the area all the tendons are of balls within the hand area the self sits away from the bone so order to reattach to this and make the wound clean again this child would have to be pinned with metal pins if the child could even be saved at that point in time work would be to base we work with this on a daily basis on a daily basis in this hospital to reason her colleagues witness the dark side to the massive possession of weapons in that state to reason six three me critical of the ease with which weapons are dealt with here she's angry that manufacturers use children as a target audience. they're still learning how to tell time they're still learning
9:37 pm
how to cut with scissors it's more than strange but when they market guns to children they make them in pastel blue and pretty barbie a pink light just like barbie dolls they make them with swirls and then they call them. cute little names like cricket fans chipmunks just as though if you owned a gun you would belong to a disney club. this is the wood family for them shooting is an activity for the whole family including the young the children. well six zero one hundred so. i missed it here so. this isn't a very very shallow. you know this in holland would be like very illegal. well in kentucky in the united states it's just part of the way we operate and this
9:38 pm
is the local shooting range. they share trust me with this guy trusted ok. let's give it a go to. the free possession of aa is in trying to in the us constitution and is inseparable from countryside life here. looking for ways to share with davis. or with davis nice to meet you yes or needs to go to from the netherlands from where the netherlands the netherlands yes i have lots of guns we do have lots of things amenities. typically in stock we've got some more point fifteen hundred two thousand one hundred goes up and down but fifteen hundred a small number for us how many do you sell here oh gosh i'd have to look at the numbers but you're probably looking at seven date they also.
9:39 pm
feel like that one right there that's definitely pointed towards a lady. a lady would buy that farm and that would be her a r fifteen we're husband might on that one right there or something one of their plastic is like a real good old most definitely yesterday. it looks like a toy gun you know it's there in the glass like this is really well that is just the furniture meaning those are just the excess arrays that you put on a plain black gun like at to make it to doll it up like that and how much like a how much is a gun like that the dressed up like that one is i have a look at the price tag it is probably about fourteen hundred dollars with a scope there's another paint gun mess for the ladies but we carry a huge stock a handgun and everything from target guns to little bitty ankle guns self-defense
9:40 pm
guns target guns you know we don't have this and then once it's like we don't have weapons store so for us it's not really yes. what we all do to protect ourselves nothing. show would davis has weapons of all shapes and sizes from hang guns to semiautomatic and of kools guns made especially for children. with the. sometimes they'll have a shorter stock to make it easier for their length of pocas their arms are shorter most of the time they'll be lighter because they can't hold up as much here's a very good example i want to even have them in colors like i'm being korean of course pink for the young girls cam all for of a future honner this children's gun is marketed as my first rifle it is the same gun that killed caroline spock's yet the state of kentucky support the sale of it. i could lay this gun right here loaded and i could come back in ten years and i'll
9:41 pm
guarantee you if nobody picks up that gun it will have not hurt anybody. so you know the gun is simply a tool or a coal oil so you say guns don't kill people guns do not kill people people kill people with five year olds also don't kill people but they get killed look skateboards are you going to outlaw skateboards are you going to confiscate pogo sticks everything require supervision. so jamie you can begin to grow any yeah yeah hope don't hunger good to see that. i do it i don't do it yeah our boys are you know i was. the goods are a typical kentucky family father jamie's a farmer he has eight hundred dairy cows there's a mill to twenty four hours
9:42 pm
a day the woods are hard work it's enough good food especially meat. and there's something else they love to i doing you know you get i hear you soothing goats. we also keep the governor house yes going to see the. gun came in these are all over here and this one's a twenty two and two shot. they say well yes. what do you give a nation also here. and it's like turkey ok channels. we have good looks better because i'm too afraid you know i've got to see your house does the five you know peace in my face it was like yeah which is a safe why is that what we're here. going here. do you
9:43 pm
trust your children with those weapons you know i mean it's not you know here's a gun go out no it's a tom over time you know they have to earn my trust to do those things like you the key that they they know words that today you know when i were small or know that key was put up that keys where they didn't know where it was it was either on my key chain and i you know they couldn't get in a gun cabinet this is if it is easy to you know it's ok. to work you know gaining ground real this was. off to dinner the children go outside to practice that savors hubby in the backyard. it's a quick fix for a long and increasingly intoxicating addiction the us may have avoided the fault
9:44 pm
but it keeps dragging the world into an ever deeper debt hole is it still possible to break this vicious cycle. dramas that can't be ignored to the. stories of others who refuse to notice. faces change the world writes never. come full picture of today's news long life on demand from around the globe. dropped. to fifty. the olympic torch is on its epic journey to such. a one hundred twenty three days. through two thousand nine hundred ton two cities of russia. relayed by fourteen
9:45 pm
9:46 pm
to be in the know. on the odds. that. you guys to young to own a gun. why not because. they're not we're not all prone to you know it's often they'll take her. i'm not afraid of something happens with a gun the excellence of something. well the amish you have it's not right i think you honestly do need the positive side ever now because you know only what is supposed to fight the process that is
9:47 pm
a large you know i mean this teaches them i'm not saying that they're going to be better than anybody else's children when they grow up but i mean you teaches them a lot of response ability. you know what the gun rights advocates will say you're using this threat of death of caroline sparks to get your own message across i hope they do say that because it is my methods but it is also the message of the american academy of pediatrics the american academy of pediatricians in the united states in two thousand and twelve a policy statement stating that the only safe home in the united states is a home without a gun and i stand behind only. just around the corner from my caroline sparks who shot dead is one of the largest shooting grounds in the united states. as eight thousand the
9:48 pm
shooting ground is larger than eleven thousand triple pick choose. so this is what we call the point to give you some perspective the most of our property is all north of us and west this is nick noble owner of rock also shooting range despite the tragic incidents in the neighborhood he still see shooting as an innocent fun. i call golf with a shotgun so you're going from from whole the whole station to station and then scoring and going to the end of the day out there today out. in the shooting club equipped with a restaurant and hotel is a family destination because of the vast size of the cost of this to travel by car between the fifty shooting stations this particular station is a recreation of a cowboy village. so this is where the action happens this is it this is one of our many ranges but to be a good place for us to come down and maybe test out a few different types of. nick noble wants to prove that shooting doesn't have to
9:49 pm
be dangerous. first of all we always keep guns pointed in a safe direction even when it's unloaded we assume that every firearm is a loaded until we can prove otherwise when you're handling a firearm you never have that finger on it so it's even taken a picture english at all always well yeah parallel with that and then and then the only time i ever put a finger on the triggers and we're actually engaged in the target and ready to shoot and then i'll actually put my finger on the trigger but any time i pick this up fingers off which are. ok to hit anything yet it is for time i could understand why children find a use who would give a thrill a bit of adrenaline yes i said understand that yeah is it wise to learn a kid how to shoot when such a tragic accident happens around the corner here. between two and three hundred
9:50 pm
million guns the united states so you can act like they're not here and take kids away from them and i think that's when i move when i believe that it's my personal opinion that when kids become curious about what they don't know is when the accidents happen is so different than putting a child a sixteen year old child in a vehicle with no training on an interstate says this is how you feel with guns that it you have to try. but i thought you know if she even led but she had big brain damage to make the skin even see you can see now that your eye is right there and i just feel so worried that she would never be normal again or in a coma forever are bats the ball. sure is are his grandmother children and weapons should never be combined. granddaughter was in the coma for two weeks with a bullet lodged in her brain.
9:51 pm
it's a new it is serious about. the by. well it's still in the head it's too difficult to remove. much of anything that she needs in the life of any seven year old. certainly chilling out. what are the chances that it will survive something like that well one of the million and the doctors say that the baby never seen nothing like this before saturday's color the miracle baby. schools sat. down with a child a high school and writes i doubt. any hit you. what it was if you hit you with a cold it's sad seeing a little bit of your head you. know we didn't duck to say you were lucky
9:52 pm
a little bit. and cough. told you to wear go girl. because of the accident bizzare as parents lost their rights to parental care how grandmother now has full custody. together they visit the hospital where as our it was treated. he looked crazy its. own luck as a home was. his belief his looks to have. a shield up really nice you can't even hardly tell it was their looks just like a little scrape now. they're getting squire good sense for him every day to keep the sky oh that's fantastic they've taught you well you can't even tell. i've done this for thirty years and there are children that you always remember they just stick in your head and i have my special words and she's one of the special ones
9:53 pm
you remember and see her not fabulous. absolutely fabulous and this is the recovery that you always hope for a small miracle a small miracle definitely something that you're doing so good. makes me know that what i'm here for is worthwhile. makes me know what i'd do if. the figures are truly shocking more than fifteen thousand children each year abroad to hospitals across america with gunshot wounds and eight children die every day because of the consequences. in the gun from that's public television i left a couple of messages i think six or seven attempts to speak with someone from the gun lobby and successful and the secretary admits that due to the death of caroline
9:54 pm
spokes this is not a popular topic of conversation for the arms manufacturers. caroline sparks is buried here on the outskirts of cumberland county she brother and mother regularly visit a gas station nearby which also serves as a convenience store in your absence has been blown out flour just about an average of a washed lost weight you know ever since men like her mom there's a bear her second grandmother who had a second grandmother so you must be heard when you heard the news yes her father that. heard about it. and so this small village is now a symbol for the gun debate throughout the united states president obama wants stricter gun control but is met with resistance from the countryside even in the village of caroline sparks board taken the right so i don't buy if you ever do it.
9:55 pm
so even after the tragedy when i was at the directly i doubt you still believe it or you know that you have the children yeah yeah meets on the project you say so so you say this gun for five six seven year olds is safe going to even though it supervision your own grandchildren you would give the great irony that many pictures with their with maybe one day i hope to fill look back at these pictures of robert me i'm very good. with alex and t.j. owning and shooting guns from the young ages of twelve and seven the woods will continue to consider shooting a family activity oh rather than spending saturdays playing football they go to the shooting range. why do you like shooting so much. shooting helps to really stress you know.
9:56 pm
and i'm sure afraid something happens a children every day and us die because of shots aren't you afraid it happens to you why not because what it would be made to shoot so. and someone else who is trying to or. when you think it's innocent when you with kids involved you think there's not a bullet in there you think it's just like you think everything's safe but it's not guns are never say. and because of that there's a family that's very sad always mr daughter and i'm very blessed that we have d.c. with us. after some kids were never taught the difference between i am in a real gun i think that's where some of the accidents come into play i mean you
9:57 pm
were talking about the incident in cumberland county how do you know that child wasn't thinking that that gun was just a ploy again. if you look at this and friend above this infant's right here is a gunshot wound close to the head in the temple area unfortunately this is one of the children to make we were unable to revive this child this is the gun debate. of children and see through the eyes of children this is the through the eyes of parents parks if we can do it for our children for our future what is the country the same for.
9:58 pm
i mean of for looking at the situation right now where we have a crackdown almost on a daily basis where we have people getting arbitrarily arrested from their homes during night raids where we have children being picked off the streets where we have people attacked with cheer gas inside their homes where torture is from but is that not in itself a form of anarchy. least be cool language. programs and documentaries in arabic it's we'll hear. reporting from the will talks about six of p.r.p. interviews intriguing stories for you to. see in troy t.v. arabic for a visit arabic. word
