The gun Kristian used is sold in the ‘kids’ corner’ section of its manufacturer’s website and comes in pink, blue and other colours. Cumberland County Judge John Phelps said having guns in areas like Kentucky was “normal”. “It’s a normal way of life, and it’s not just rural Kentucky, it’s rural America – hunting and shooting and sport fishing… There’s probably not a household in this county that doesn’t have a gun.”
