Thoughts? Different than many - I think school shootings resulting in multiple deaths are rare and that we are making more of them than they deserve. Dating back to 1980 there have been 8 shootings at elementary, middle, and high schools involving 4 or more deaths, including the shooter. Another one involved 4 deaths, Kip Kinkel, but 2 of those were his parents and only 2 were students.
We have made this a national crisis when it is in fact still very unlikely to happen.
Odd you choose 1980, Columbine was in 1999 and what I think of as the first mass school shooting, they seem to be increasing in frequency, and I think anytime kids in a supposedly safe place of school are killed in mass its going to get more attention.
But your opinion, is in line with what I think is happening in this country, eh it's ok it doesn't happen that often. Just another day in America.
Well this is an interesting link, Seems China has a problem with school killings
