Do 16-year-olds write these editorials?

The Chronicle‘s staff editorials all too often read like high school students wrote them.

For example, today the editorial board reminds us of the fact that gun accidents are enabled (get ready) by guns:

Gun advocates point to instances when guns have repelled intruders. But it is cold common sense to acknowledge reality: A gun in the house increases a family’s chances of suffering an accidental shooting or violent death.

Car accidents usually involve cars. Likewise, it is “cold common sense” that driving cars increases the chances of car accidents.

For that matter, light rail collisions involve the MetroRail tram. But I’m not expecting the Chronicle to come out with any “cold common sense” on that matter.
