They get shot up because of easy access to guns, next question please!
Guns were even more accessible years prior. So thats not the complete answer.
The rapid increase in school shootings coinsided with the expiration of the assault weapons ban.
So, no. They really weren't
Most shootings have been done with 'handguns' which has seen little regulations from the fed.
Not school/mass shootings, no.
Shootings in general, yes.
Not even an argument. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682938/
Yeah we're clearly talking about different things here. This dataset does not seem to differentiate between shootings that occurred between specific individuals with a grievance, while technically on school grounds, but likely both outside, and outside of normal school hours, likely gang and drug related, and individuals who choose to go Rambo on nonspecific or at least a large group of people within the school, during normal hours. Which are very different scenarios with very different motivations and potential remedies.
How many adolescent gangs and drug dealers do you know?
...Who do you think gangs are recruiting? You know literally nothing about this topic, huh?
Funny how i was the only one to back my statements with sources.
they get shot up because of really poor mental health in large swaths of the population and non-existent gun control.
huh, an invisible sign
