On April 24, an 18-year-old student was shot and killed on campus at James Bowie High School in Arlington, Texas, allegedly by a 17-year-old student. The school was put on lockdown and students were later reunified with their families at a different location.

There have been 13 school shootings this year. There were three in April. You can read about them here:

@windinhishair thank you
There are so many mass shootings these days that most of them don't even make the news. These folks have a complete list:
[b]https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting[/b]

They've logged 36 in the month of April. Looks like their definition of a mass shooting is injuries+deaths>3; call it 4 or more casualties in the incident.

BTW, it's interesting to note that , firearms have been the leading cause of death for US children and teens since 2020, representing 19% of all deaths for children 18 years and younger in 2021.

@ElwoodBlues i knew covid was gonna be a big deal in dec 2019. all that you needed to do was watch Chinese news.
@LILY61 Yes, and then Italy. Italy had its first Covid cases in late January; local spread by mid Feb. in Lombardy. In early March they attempted to lock down Lombardy, but some people fled south and carried the virus with them. And we didn't learn from Italy's misfortune.
@ElwoodBlues we don't learn from any mistakes

There have been many recent mass shootings, just not many at schools.
@badminton so the adults have taken back being childish
They're not really news anymore. Americans hated peace.
@Roundandroundwego i think they will come back but more hi tech

Democrats are getting everything they want
@MasterLee not me
I am feeling that they haven't. Too many loons out there
No, if anything they’re so common now there’s almost no point in reporting them. 😞

Just when you think they’ve stopped you’ll hear of another one..
@Hanginginthere it is so odd how it became the in thing. i went to a horrible school and no one even talked about it

@LILY61 i wouldn’t say odd it’s more very sad and unfortunate
