U S A! NUMBER ONE!
I'm sure someone has done the math on it, how many of these mass shootings were right wingers? How many were not right wing trans people?

Can you just pay teachers fucking living wage?
No. We can arm them with AR15s though
They'll have to pay for the ammo themselves, of course.
Just like any other classroom supply.
Funny, but horribly impractical.
If every classroom has an AR-15 secured behind a desk, then every school can outfit a gang. Remember that the gun violence in countries without so many available guns is coincidentally a lot lower.
And teachers aren't paid enough as it is. They're not gonna take a life for the pittance they're getting.
It's mixing mass shooting with mass killing.
The first number deals with people shot, and the second counts incidents where four or more people died from their injuries. I believe the second number isn't just gun violence - so stabbings or vehicular homicide are counted - but I'm not sure because the number of mass attacks are far lower when the victim can avoid injury by moving only three feet to one side.
The number of mass shootings, where 4+ people were injured by guns but less than 4 were killed, has been as many as 9 in one day.
I think the number of strictly school shootings is more than 38 this year. Like, a Columbine somewhere, every pay-cheque.
Look at all the good all those good guys with guns are doing. /s
