Mass shootings are RARE in the rest of the developed world and far too common in the US. I'm sick of "thoughts & prayers," I want legislative ACTION!!!

2 people were killed and several injured in a shooting at a Texas elementary school
There were 27 school shootings with injuries or deaths this year.
The organization tracks shootings where a firearm was discharged and where any person (other than the suspect) has a bullet wound resulting from the incident. Education Week also includes only incidents that happen on a K-12 school property or on a school bus and that occur when school is in session or during a school-sponsored event.
It doesn't track cases in which the only shots fired were from a school resource officer or police officer.

@ElwoodBlues I’m sorry but why is your argument with me .. become a congressman and work for your change

@SW-User My argument with you is that I want a whole lot more than "thoughts & prayers" and "the shooter is in hell" while you seem satisfied with your anodyne platitudes.
What were you referring to with your "IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN !!" ??
