I just read an article that states we have had 18 school shootings this year. The number sounds high and maybe the definition is "gun gets fired with the intent to do harm", bur does it matter what the definition is? I know I would be destroyed if it was my child who was injured/killed in a shooting incident.
Over the last 30 years 371 students of all ages were killed in school shootings, every death is a tragedy, but to put it into perspective over the same 30 years 70,000 teenage drivers age 16-19 were killed in accidents, that being the number one cause of death among teenagers.
