Sounds like a problem with the media then. Ban coverage of shootings if people can’t behave rationally about risks.

Children are 1000x more likely to die in a car crash than a school shooting.

My good friend is a teacher in another state. A school near his lost a teacher to gun violence this month. Between gun violence, going thru COVID, and general apathy to learning from his students, he's about done with teaching.

Both turned out fine but this takes a heavy toll on the school community. Kids should be learning and playing. Teachers should be teaching. Parents should be at peace knowing their kids are safe. That used to be a given. It's not anymore.

Guns now kill more kids than vehicle accidents. Sure, not all of those deaths are in schools. But the point still stands.

We have a massive gun violence problem deep inside of American culture. No other country comes close to our level of gun violence.

Yes, of course, gun safety must be addressed, and the government should have resources to do this concurrently, but the foreign influence issue is an existential threat to your nation, and should be the highest priority.
