It's a report of "shots fired." Doesn't mean a school shooting is occurring.



They call anything a school shooting now. Remember hearing that there’s already been 18 school shootings in 2018? They were including things like a kid shooting out a parked school bus window with a pellet gun. Things like that.

It's insane how they massage the stats like that. Seems like the definition of "mass shooting" gets looser everyday.

The funny part is that they cherry pick the details they want. They'll use the loose definition of mass shooting to say that they happen everyday, but will ignore the fact that they're carried out almost exclusively with handguns, not rifles.
