Thousands of Americans die every year, because they were shot. At least that's what this New York Times article says. It seems as "natural" and unnewsworthy as traffic accidents.
Thank G-d, it's still considered newsworthy in Israel, when someone is shot dead, especially when it's a child, like the late Oren Mizrachi, accidentally killed by a friend playing with a gun.
Maybe it's because Israel is a small country, but the number of traffic fatalities and accidents are considered news.
