Bows are too cumbersome, don't fit in my nightstand. They also have a slow rate of fire and less precision, especially at greater distances. Also, they are not ideal for close quarter combat.

Do you REALLY believe I want to damage my car just to run someone over? Really? This isn't GTA you know. Stealing cars is too much work, and using my own is out of the question. And again, they are not fit for indoors combat.

Rocks don't really kill that well from a distance. You have to get up close and presonal for those. They are also a bit too heavy to carry around.

No, guns are the way to go. Easy to hide and carry, not very expensive, good at distances up to 20m or so (depending on your weapon of choice).

Good sized rock can knock someone down plenty easily. And bam there you are for a kill. Bows I will give you. And when killing your own son because of a $60 video game do you really care that much what happens to the car? The boy clearly needs to die.

we're not talking about premeditated murder here.  We're talking about someone who got angry and grabs what is around him.  If it's a gun you're screwed, if he grabs a kitchen knife you got a chance.  If he went through all the planning to do the murder then yea he's gonna do what it takes to kill the kid, but this isn't that type of murder.  He's gonna use what is convenient to use at the time.  It was a murder of spur of the moment rage not premeditation.
