The school shooting club thing is also an example of how education works.

Not in a way relevant to this. We aren’t stopping spear violence by having javelin as a track event.

Guns are just tools. I have a few shotguns and rifles for skeet and hunting. No different than golf clubs.

What is different is the context. Check out an “American Rifleman” magazine from 1969 and compare to today.
