It's the guns.

26 years ago, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland, killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK govt responded by enacting tight gun control legislation. In the 9400+ days
since, there have been a total of O school shootings in the UK.

More than 348,000 students have experienced gun violence at school since Columbine in 1999
There have been 376 school shootings since Columbine

@tdwllms1 @danwentzel @GatekeepKen An awful lot of teachers have also faced gun violence. It is just as traumatic for the adults who are expected to give our lives to protect the children. Been there, done that.

@AlliFlowers

I don't mean to discount the dramatic and horrible affects on teachers and administrators ... they are real and life changing.

@tdwllms1 @danwentzel @GatekeepKen I know. I just felt compelled to throw that in there. Some day I’m going to fall off my soapbox and hurt myself. 😉
