US school shootings double in a year to reach historic high

All that shows is more proof Americans should not have guns. We are more violent.

Regardless of what we actually believe, let's momentarily assume that this is actually true.

It is roughly estimated that there are over 400,000,000 privately owned firearms in the United States.

We've only got about 332,000,000 people,
and that includes newborns who are not yet quick-draw experts [give them time, however].

What, then, are we supposed to do about it now????

I suggest concentrating on the fixable problems first.:thinking:
 
Schools in the United States are suffering an alarming rise in shootings, according to new federal data that shows the number of incidents reaching a historic peak for the second year running.

Data compiled by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) records that in 2021-22 public and private schools, spanning both elementary and secondary levels, incurred a total of 327 shootings – a record high. The incidents involved a gun being brandished and fired or a bullet hitting school property.

Read your link more closely; hardly any of what we preceive as "school shootings".
 
Swiss and Fins do have A LOT A LOT of guns

So why is their murder rate so low?

Switzerland:

Gun ownership is less than a quarter of the US. 2 million guns/8.5 million people. Not 350+million/350 million people.

About half are former service rifles from their mandatory service requirements.

Swiss authorities decide on a local level whether to give people gun permits. They also keep a log of everyone who owns a gun in their region — known as a canton. Cantonal police don't take their duty doling out gun licenses lightly. They might consult a psychiatrist or talk with authorities in other cantons where a prospective gun buyer has lived to vet the person.

People who've been convicted of a crime or have an alcohol or drug addiction aren't allowed to buy guns in Switzerland.

The law also states that anyone who "expresses a violent or dangerous attitude" won't be permitted to own a gun.

Gun owners who want to carry their weapon for "defensive purposes" also have to prove they can properly load, unload, and shoot their weapon and must pass a test to get a license.

Switzerland still has one of the highest rates of gun violence in Europe, and suicides account for most gun deaths in the country.

Finland next.

Yep, we knew that the forum racist bitch would eventually get there.

But here’s the deal, cunt. You’re cherry picking data to get the results you want.

“If you just take out the 5 exams volsrock failed, he’d have a passing grade.” Yet, it doesn’t work that way, does it, bitch?

The bottom line that both evades you and keeps getting your ass kicked is that there are too many guns, too easily accessible, to too many people who should not possess them in the first place.

That’s the case for more restrictive gun laws on a national level, including more comprehensive background requirements, federal laws and penalties, and civil and criminal liabilities for dealers and manufacturers.

No, CDC did not cherry pick. They did not say “if you take out certain data, you get the results you want”. You said that, cherry picking bitch.

So what is Biden and the Democrats doing wrong to make this happen. Biden has done little to stop it
 
What does the NRA have to do with school shootings? We teach people not to shoot other people. None of my students shot anyone.

People my age, Arby, are not required to let facts get in the way of a good story.

Look at Biden and Trump.

Seriously, though, the NRA actively supports right wing politicians.
From my perspective, their stance on firearms is the least of it.
We know how to tell the difference between us and them, don't we?

You have to look at the membership as a whole. Who pays $35 a year for a magazine (that's become stories and advertisements) and doesn't follow the law? Are you concerned about us life members shooting up schools?

For leftists its skin color, genitalia and who you share your genitalia with.

If we're being honest, I have not studied the profiles of school shooters.
Also, as you know, I'm not an anti-gun zealot, although I was opposed to the repeal of the Brady law.

My actual concern about the NRA is that it's politically a far right organization,
and if it's not directly encouraging the school massacres,
it's not discouraging them either.
