Yea...no it's not.

Even NPR did a report on it:

https://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2018/08/27/640323347/the-school-shootings-that-werent

But you'll ignore it and keep eating the bullshit from GVR and other anti-2a groups.

Hahahaha. That's from 2018 with data from the 2015-2016 school year. Fucking hilarious.

I know it's amazingly presumptuous of me to assume you can figure out the rest, but I'll let you go ahead and do that.

Are you suggesting because its not super recent it's wrong? The fuck...

Also, you're wiki article literally proves my point.

First line in 2020

An individual who was not a student accidentally shot himself in the leg in the parking lot of Glades Central High School.[488]

Yea...counted as a school shooting.

I'm sorry. How many times per week has someone shot a gun in a school in the US in 2024 again?

I can't seem the find that in your reply...

According to your link, it's not even monthly....

Shots were fired outside Thornton Academy, coming from two separate cars shooting at each other. It was unsure if they were students or had any connection to the school. No known injuries are reported, and the suspects immediately fled off. A school bus was also careened by one of the two evading cars, with no reported injuries as of Feb. 10.[705]

Not a school shooting....nor by students...but its for some reason there...in the list. That entire list is basically shit like that.

So it's pretty damn rare, but you can't be bothered to even read your own sources, so you'll continue to stick your fingers in your ears and act like facts don't exist.

Wow. You're really bad at math. Maybe the reason you think this isn't a problem is because you've never been in school?

Wanna try again?

EDIT: Naaaah. I'll just give it to you. You're right! It's only once a month.

Just because it want to see how much of a fucking idiot you'll make of yourself trying to bend farther over backwards to see if you can walk it back to once a year and still look like a fucking psychotic moron.
