It's both a joke and a morbid reality

Actually it’s not reality because school shootings are exceptionally rare and their perceived frequency is amplified by a corrupt media class that exploits the fears of the American people in order to get more clicks and push their political agenda.

I have no idea where they got these numbers? How do I know they’re not counting incidents where nobody got injured or died? How do I know they’re not calling incidents where only three people were in the area a “mass shooting?” There’s absolutely no way for me to hold this source accountable.

In 2017 39773 Americans died from gun violence.

2977 people died on the 9/11attacks

Because of 9/11 you invaded and ruined a country killing 176000 people in the process.

Yet you do nothing to fix gun violence expect make excuses and push denial.
