you say that but my son is going into kindergarten next year and my daughter is in daycare for another 3. No statistic is going to convince me that at least one of them won't be a school shooting survivor by the time my daughter graduates high school.

and after that, colleges are only marginally safer

We use these terms like school shooting survivor like it's some immeasurable and unnatural moral wrong so great it shapes ur identity but outside the richest white bubbles every kid in the world sees poo poo like that on their own block or in their own home

it took back to back mass shootings to have the mass shooting death toll hit an average weekend in chicago

americans only give a gently caress about mass shootings because they threaten places white people care about

Not really, they give a gently caress about them because they are unexpected, and prey on the defenseless. Chicago shootings are mostly targeted by parties who not only expect it, but also retaliate. Yes, defenseless bystanders die. But the difference here is real. When two angry people are fighting in the street, it's not likely to be stopped. People aren't as concerned. When one angry person randomly attacks someone and beats the poo poo out of them, everyone around them would jump in to help stop it. While both are wrong and shouldn't be happening, one of those two examples is more concerning.

They used to do this with squirrels, but many cities had to stop since they were going bankrupt. They changed it from 1 or 1/2¢ per squirrel tail to giving prizes to the schools that killed the most.

quote:

Children were asked to verify their kills by bringing in squirrel tails to their schools. Some impatient exterminators delivered their trophies directly to Commissioner Hecke even before Squirrel Week kicked off, causing a “pronounced odor” in his office. He requested that children not send him any more tails, and instructed his county commissioners to bury all tails after tallying them.

By the time Squirrel Week ended on May 4, children across the state had turned in 104,509 tails, though this was thought to represent a fraction of the total casualties. Even after the contest ended, the Commission of Horticulture reported that kids’ enthusiasm for killing squirrels continued for “an indefinite period.” During an anti-squirrel campaign in Lassen County later in the year, one girl brought in 3,780 tails; a boy brought in 3,770.
