You're forgetting that the gun grabbers consider anybody under the age of 20 to be a child or teen. Now factor in all those gang members that fall in that age group and their shooting.

Similar to the FBI claim about shooters and victims "knowing each other" as applied to gang rivalry shootings, to get people to believe that those are domestic disputes. John in Indy
