98,000 Public Schools; 13 Mass School Shootings In 60 Years

The Uvalde school shooting is tragic and multiple factors contributed to the outcome.

It's still worth keeping in mind that it is [thankfully] a rare event.



https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=84



Cliffs:

- 27 "school shootings" [aka: a firearm was discharged at or near a school] so far in 2022

- 26 of these school shootings resulted in 0 or 1 death

- a mass shooting means 4 or more people were shot and/or killed; a mass shooting may have zero fatalities

- using this criteria there have been 13 mass school shootings since 1966
Our database shows that since 1966, when our database timeline begins, there have been 13 such shootings at schools across the U.S – the first in Stockton, California, in 1989.

Four of those shootings – including the one at Robb Elementary School – involved a killing at another location, always a family member at a residence. There have been reports the most recent perpetrator shot his grandmother prior to going to the school in Uvalde, although that has yet to be officially confirmed.

The majority of mass school shootings were carried out by a lone gunman, with just two – Columbine and the 1998 shooting at Westside School in Jonesboro, Arkansas – carried out by two gunmen. In all, some 146 people were killed in the attacks and at least 182 victims injured.*
https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...sh-in-the-u-s/

- 54% of gun fatalities in the US are suicides

Some things to think on before deciding we need to "ban all guns" or bump up public schools to prison-like levels of armed guards and locked doors.

Def rare af, but 1 is too many when there is a simple fix available.

Put a cop in each and every school who has combat experience and access to an assault rifle in addition to his glock.

No excuse to have a single kid shot by an incel.

Legalize prostitution in all 50 states, and you'll see fewer school shootings. srs

Over 2 thousand US school shootings since 1970. 288 between January 2009 & May 2018 alone & then add in all the other gun attacks elsewhere like nightclubs & public gatherings. 9 year old girls going to firing ranges & killing their instructor with an Uzi they cannot handle, because it is considered normal behaviour-yes, it is a big problem.

Not gonna read all that jfl but I probably agree with the conclusions. As usual, good work schizo sloot.Don'ttake your meds.

Lost it that I opened the thread and the first thing I see is some convoluted table with 1000 rows and columns. True to form, as always.

We literally had a summer where every liberal city was destroyed because of a handful of police killing unarmed suspects.

Statistics do no matter to liberals, they put emotions over everything, that's why the media likes to tug at their strings instead of providing a rational way to look at things.

And how many of those shootings:

- had zero or 1 fatality?

- were not actually on school property [one site uses "within X distance of a school"] and may not have even involved any students or staff?

murdering people with guns = bad

Also:

murdering people = bad

And I'm okay with some restrictions on guns personally; posted in other threads. I'm fine with legal gun ownership [other than hunting rifles for those w/hunting license] to be limited to adults age 25 or older with an EXCEPTION for 18 or older with formal training [e.g. state guard/militia, military, police].

People who are bent on committing a heinous crime will find a way to get it done regardless of laws against legal ownership or even availability of firearms. See: OKC truck w/fertilizer

Not to take the dissenting opinion but I’d probably lose my **** too if I was being taught about transgenderism and pronouns and clown nonsense and being indoctrined at such a young age.

Kidding but honestly I don’t think it’s mutually exclusive.

BTW- legal ownership at age 25 is not a random choice.
Demographic studies of gangs cited by Howell show that the typical age range for a gang is 12–24 with the average age of gang members 17–18 years old.
^^^
If police could charge and arrest these individuals for any gun possession then we might have fewer incidents of innocent bystanders in poor crime ridden areas.

Since 1966 eh? How about since Columbine ('99)?

Columbine
Santee
New Town
Parkland
Virginia Tech

These are some if the bigger ones, literally off the top of my head. IMO "since 1966" is kinda useless, it doesn't reveal any patterns or provide anything useful. Nothing between 66 and 89 is interesting as hell tho. Chit seemed to really open up after Columbine-which I think should be the focus of anybody wanting to get to the bottom of this.

Let’s just cut the BS, the AR-15 style rifles need to just be banned. Period.

There is no reason for ownership beyond liking them.

There is a reason these high causality mass shooters use these over a revolver.

You don't have an argument for getting rid of AR-15s. You don't even know what it is.

Just lol that people keep saying this. Listen to any American (or really western) whoremaxxer. Those sloots are going to deliver life-denying as phuck experiences to these incels and probably drive them to new levels of misanthropy.

Look up the reviews for almost any rub and tug place in the United States and it's full of one-star reviews from betas who went in there and got yelled at by some 90-pound FOB sloot in the massage place, cowered because they had such shame about what they were doing, and paid 3-5 times the price for an HJ (srs).

Even paying literal whores for hole access, the bitch is going to walk all over you if you don't have a Chad personality in the current year lmaooooo.

Drugs just need to be banned. Period.

There is no reason for ownership or liking them.

There is a reason all these OD's are from using drugs instead of mediation and positive energy.

fuaaark I always thought this was an actual issue but now you're saying there were only 13 mass school shootings since 1966????

what if you raise the bar even more f.e. only counting the double digits?

The argument that a problem shouldn't be solved because it happens less frequently than other problems is not an argument.

Now let's start finding solutions that don't involve the suspect getting multiple firearms and showing up at the school first.

There's a mass shooting every weekend in Chicago or Baltimore, but nobody cares about that.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.
