I read the story. I just no longer trust journalists to get facts straight when it comes to writing about guns.

I understand you read the story...I was only suggesting people should read and study the ballistics of pellet guns.
Pellet guns are lethal and as far as I know, aren’t identified as toys with the orange muzzle. They will fire
a 35 grain .177cal projectile at 880 ft per sec with 25.4 ft lbs of energy...That can penetrate 6-7 inches of animal flesh..
