@benziro6: A school shooting is an armed attack at an educational institution, involving the use of a firearm. Many school shootings are also categorized as mass shootings due to multiple casualties.[1][2] The United States has had the highest number of such shootings,[3][4] over 50 times as many as all other G7 nations combined between 2009 and 2018.[5] School shootings have sparked political debate over gun violence, gun rights, gun control, and zero tolerance policies, especially in the United States.
