Would you make the same argument about terror attacks? They hardly ever happen, so don't worry about it?
You missed my last paragraph. We, as a society, should put protections in place at schools. Like CCW, I'd rather have those protections and not need them, then need them and not have them.

But, all I have been hearing from politicians, media, interviews, pundits, regular people commenting on every form of media, is that these school shooting "KEEP" happening. That they are out of control. That our kids shouldn't have to be scared to go to school. That we shouldn't be scared to send them to school....

My point is simply this...school shootings are NOT COMMON and we should stop characterizing them as such.
