    Speaking on behalf of the rest of us, we think it would be cool if we tried to see if it would go differently before we just accept the opinion of random people on the internet with zero proven credentials to weigh in on the subject.

    If that’s okay with you.

      America had an assault weapon ban previously and during that time is when school shootings actually started.

        You mean this?

        Could you tell us exactly what shooting you believe “started” them all? Because according to the article, lives were saved ass a result of the ban.

          Columbine was the start of the modern school shooting phenomenon. To this date mass shooters, even outside of school settings, follow the blueprint they started in the 1999 assualt of a school. The tactics, motivation, and planning for Columbine seperates it from more than most of the previous civilian gun violence, and the mass shooters that follow look more like the Columbine shooters than they look like the shooters who came before them.
