Despite the point you are trying to makes, the kind of events you are describing make up a very small portion of gun violence. The majority of it is crime/gang related, or suicide. Not that that’s really any better, but schools and malls aren’t being shot up every week.

    I'll look into the stats, but I hear about mall/school shootings often enough that it feels like every week during the school year.

    Out of all the listed shootings this year on that site, only one was a “mass shooter in a school”, the rest occurred outside school, in a parking lot or off campus at an affiliated program because of disputes or other gang/criminal activity as violence between individuals
