Sarcasm noted. An apple would actually be more difficult to hit because of its reduced size.

Everyone is underestimating how hard it is to willingly kill a person. Shooting a paper target or apple at a range is nothing like sighting on a person, letting out your breath and pulling a trigger.
I did not talk about killing a person at all. I talked about shooting a target. It is sad in this case that the shooter's target was a person.

I would never want to try to see how difficult it would be, as you mention.
