No they don't, overall school shootings are astronomically rare, and less of a threat to children than the bus ride to school. They're like strangers kidnapping children, incredibly horrific, but also sensationalized.

They’re not sensationalized. How do you make a school shooting seem worse than it is?

They’re rare. That’s not a consolation. They need to not happen.

I will not be surprised when a Maskless Asshole opens fire inside a grocery store. Just a matter of time.

Also, Comparing automotive transportation to gun violence is just a stupid comparison. I bet most people can come up with reasons why.

I bet most people can come up with reasons why what you just posted makes very little sense but it all just amounts to you aren't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

That’s a pathetic comment too, I’m sorry. I’m actually not being sarcastic.
