So desensitized that I had to google school shooting to see if it was new or an old one. I really hate my country and the people that run this shit hole.
Edit:
God Fucking Damn! Pres. Little Dick, Kid Fucker, use that abuse power for good just once. Limit the amount of guns in this fucking country.
What kind of dystopia needs a database for school shooting!

Limiting guns is probably one of the very few things Trump could do that might end with his ouster. His supporters are typically rabidly pro-gun.
Trump supporters are likely to ban "lunatics" from owning guns. when conservative media reports on shootings, the focus is on the "lunatic" rather than the easy availability of AR-15s.
the problem is who MAGA frames as "lunatics": leftists in general, trans people specifically. every time there's a mass shooting, rumors spread that the shooter was trans. usually it's a lie, but this time it's evidently true.
I think they're manufacturing consent for mental illness background checks, so they can list gender dysphoria as a mental illness and disarm us.
Might help his supporters since they love using guns on themselves.
August 27 is the 239th day of the year, so there's been a school shooting every 1.7 days this year so far.
Not really though. The media has a really loose definition of "school shooting" so they can keep people scared.
To use a local example, two parents got in an argument outside a school, one pulled a gun and shot the other. A shooting at a school is not necessarily how people think of a "school shooting".

Always check the details before you believe the hype. The actual number is 8, which is 8 too many, but a far cry from 140.

Even some of those aren't actually "school shootings" as the average person thinks of them:
3/4 in Baltimore, MD: "A 16-year-old student was shot and killed after being chased onto school property."
Nobody went to that school intending to kill students. They were intent on murdering one kid who happened to run on to school grounds.

"Baltimore County police said the teen was outside a shopping center across the street from the school when someone got out of a car and opened fire. Campbell then ran toward school grounds, where he eventually collapsed, and was shot multiple times more."
That's a targeted killing, not a school shooting.
I mean, a shooting occuring in, around, or near a school once every 1.7 days is still absolute fucking insanity and unacceptable in any rational society.
People should be scared. Whether it's 8 or 140 or 1000 it doesn't change the fact that Americans not only allow this to happen, they allow it to continue and won't do anything to stop it.
I was on a jury, guy was charged with "dealing drugs within 1,000 feet of a school". They asked if anyone had any questions, so I asked "In a city like ours, is there any location NOT within 1/5th of a mile of a school?"
Yeah, I was dismissed from the jury. LOL.
Just because it's close to a school doesn't mean it's related to the school or the students.
"Buh, buh, THE CHILDREN!!! WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN!!!" is the refrain they use to get you to give up rights.
Ok, I'll just be blunt haha. The number of shootings that occur in the US, regardless of where they occur, should not be accepted by a rational society.
And yet in terms of overall crime, the US isn't even in the top 50:

How fucking sad is it that school shootings are washed out due to a pedo in the White house.
