3:32 am
caroline's boxes ambulance was heading when she passed away. there's the emergency room and then of course all the ambulances down this way and they will stop right at the door so close. 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 the year coming to us hospitals that show up every single year in the united states fifteen thousand children come into hospital with the young daughters friends. fifteen thousand children and the adults 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 preventable what kind of shot once you get in this hospital because we are

3:34 am
children they make them in pastel blue and pretty barbie pink like to find barbie dolls they make them with swirls and then they call them cute little names like cricket fan chipmunks justice so 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 younger children. one of the six zero one hundred eighty so. i missed it here so. this is the first shot ever shot with. you know this in hall of would be like very illegal. well in kentucky in the united states it's just part of the way we operate and this is the local shooting range. they should trust me with this guy trusted.
3:35 am
this cable to go to. the free possession of aa is in trying to in the u.s. constitution. and is inseparable from countryside lysine. looking for ways to share with davis money or would davis nice to meet you yes or can you say who's a from the netherlands from where the netherlands the netherlands have lots of guns we do have lots of guns how many do you 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 and how many do you sell here oh gosh i'd have to look at the numbers but you're probably looking at seven date that house and.
3:36 am
the 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 gun oh yeah most definitely yes i know it looks like a toy gun you know it's there in the plastic that's a 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 it's like how much is a gun like that. 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 this for the ladies but we carry a huge stock a handgun and everything you can thank god from target guns to little bitty ankle gone self-defense guns target guns you know we don't have this in the netherlands it's like we don't have weapons store so for us it's not really yes. what we all do
3:37 am
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 a korean of course pink for the young girls camel for the 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 guarantee you if nobody picks up that gun it will have not hurt anybody. so you know the gun is
3:38 am
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 i hope don't hunger good to see that. i do it don't do it yeah our boys are you know what. woods are a typical kentucky family father jamie's a farmer he has eight hundred dairy cows there's a mill to twenty four hours a day the woods are hard work it's enough good food especially meat.
3:39 am
and there's something else they love to i doing you know you get i hear you sitting goats. we also keep the gun to the house yes going to see the pushchair man no gun can these or muzzle loaders and this one twenty two and two shot. they say well yeah this shot. what do you give a nation also here. and it's like turkey ok shells. we have good looks better because i'm too afraid no i've got to see your house does the five you know peace in my face looks like yeah which is a safe why is that what we're here. going here to. do you trust your children with those weapons you know i mean it's not you know here's
3:40 am
a gun go out no it's a tom over time you know they they have to earn my trust to do those things like you're 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 you know they couldn't get in that gun cabinet this is if it is easy to you know it's ok. to work to gaining ground in this war just. after dinner the children go outside to practice that favorite hobby in the backyard. to be yours you don't know if you know her car or your norris plans to release.
3:41 am
everyone in my life that i care about their goal much and that i came askin well. i was so national champion in track and field and also i was able to go and qualify for the olympic games. you know nine hundred eighty eight i started to experiment with that the drugs i had lost all the financial means that i had was really on the street. black. great. tree kid. winter is when the sahara comes to life in. a way says palm trees are being harvested. people are waiting for
3:42 am
the biggest event of the year. the desert festival. this is the very out of this race leading camel races have spent the last year preparing for the grueling marathon. the day before the race there's a heavy sandstone overcoming the power of nature is a never ending challenge. a desert went up on r.t. . in two thousand and chime one of the first things released by wiki leaks was a secret video recording that actually looked like a bit. american actually political actors opening fire on a dozen people in iraq this is not a means to live in a society of images of violence become normal this is what the sense of isolation and lack of empathy look like. when we try an experience into
3:43 am
a spectacle only disassociate our own in body and action from activity we also have a sane person from certain kinds of moral investment i absolutely am frightened of the potential games desensitize people we know they can because the military uses games nations was. told me of war is not simply shoot but it is killing and killing exacts a penalty of the killer and people for whom it is defined by popular media don't get that. sense. that. you're.
3:44 am
right you guys to young to own a gun now. why not because. they're not we're not all pro do you know it's not right. i'm not afraid of something happens with a gun the extremes 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 out is 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 responsibility. 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
3:45 am
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 that belief. 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 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
3:46 am
the tragic incidents in the neighborhood he still sees 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 safety 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 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 loaded until we can prove otherwise when you're handling
3:47 am
a firearm you never have that finger on it so it's if you're even taking a picture english are 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 because i can understand why children find these 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 there's between two and three hundred 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 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
3:48 am
a sixteen year old child in a vehicle with no training on an interstate says this is how you feel about guns that it you have to try. but i thought you know if she even led she would be brain damaged and maybe skip even see kids you know 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 bad symbol. for azhar his grandmother children and weapons should never be combined. granddaughter was in the coma for two weeks with a bullet lodged in her brain. it's a new it is obviously by by. the. well it's still in the head it's too difficult to remove it. but obviously not she needs in the life of any seven year old.
3:49 am
charlie charlie. what are the chances that it will survive something like that well one of the million and the neuro doctors say that the baby never seen nothing like this before so they called the miracle baby. tools sat. down with a child a high school and writes and i doubt. any hit you. what it was if you hit you with a quote it's bad a small. little got to your head look. at what it got to say you were lucky a little bit. and learn the coffee. culture where goldhill. because of the accident bizarre his parents lost their rights to parental care. how grandmother now has full custody. together they visit the hospital where as arya
3:50 am
was treated. on. the look crazy its. own luck as a whole what. do you believe his looks to. have healed 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 you remember and see her now she's fabulous. absolutely fabulous and this is the recovery that you always hope for a small nergal a small miracle definitely something that you're doing so good. it makes me know
3:51 am
that what i'm here for is worthwhile. makes me know what i do is good. the figures are truly shocking more than fifteen thousand children each year abroad hospitals across america with gunshot wounds and eight children die every day because of the consequences. mr hill it's a cruel ruin again 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 on successful and the secretary admits that due to the death of caroline spokes this is not a popular topic of conversation for the arms manufacturers. caroline sparks is buried here on the outskirts of cumberland county. her brother and mother
3:52 am
regularly visit a gas station nearby which also serves as a convenience store in your absence has been blown out of power just about an average of a wash lost weight you know ever since. her mom said there's a bear or second grandmother there with a second grandmother so you must be hurt when you heard the news yes i'm really hard about it that. i heard about it. and so this movie is now a symbol for the gun debate throughout the united states president obama one stricter gun control but is met with a resistance from the countryside even in the village of caroline sparks. take in the right so i don't buy if you ever do it. so even after the tragedy when i have to that directly about you still believe it or your guns that's going to kill them yeah yeah meets on the protect you say so so you say this gun for five six seven year olds is safe going to even though it supervision your own
3:53 am
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 ray 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. stress. shooting helps to really stress you know . and i'm sure afraid something happens a children every day in us die because of chatrooms aren't you afraid it happens to you why not because what it would be made to shoot so.
3:54 am
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 and always mr daughter and i'm very blessed that we have you see 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 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 infant above the infants right here is
3:55 am
a gunshot wound close to the head in the temple area unfortunately this is one of the children did not make it we were unable to revive this child this is the gun debate through the eyes of children who simply come to pay through the eyes of children this is the true eyes of parents parks if we can do it for our children for our future what is the country receiving. my marinates join me on certain death impartial and financial reporting commentary
3:56 am
contributes and much much. only on bombast and only on. the gun the help to buy scheme for real estate which is a copycat of the fannie mae and freddie mac. debacle which caused the subprime crisis two thousand and seven the british energy corporations are going to take fracking even though in america has been proven to be completely on economical and environmental disasters but they're going to do it here anyway because why nobody in the media here except for maybe george will be up over there to guard him will say anything about the fact that this is an ecological disaster and more importantly an economic boon dog bowl that will increase britain's debt to the even higher than it is right now the highest it's been a decade.
3:57 am
3:58 am
a secret video recording that actually looked like a video game showing two american action political actors opening fire on a dozen people in iraq and this is not a means to live in a society of images of violence become normal this is what the sense of isolation and lack of empathy look like. when we try an experience and perspective to disassociate our own and buying actions from captivity we also have a sense from certain kinds of marilyn vos savant i absolutely am frightened of the potential games desensitize people we know they can because the military uses games . as. old as war it is not so sure but it is chilling and chilling exacts a penalty of the color and people for whom it is defined by the popular media that.
4:00 am
