Why do you think there are so many school shootings now?

Discipline -- at home, self, at school -- goes down, bad behavior goes up.

Violent video games ascension matches perfectly with mass shootings. Correlation, certain. Causation, highly probable.

Well just look back to my school days, every 8 year old or above carried a Cub Scout or Boy Scout pocket knife, everywhere! When I got to high school I joined the California Cadet Corps, A National Guard run Military Science course. We had drill rifles, ceremonial firing rifles, and target rifles and pistols. We had an on campus firing range. We were a semi rural campus, the farm boys came to school in pickups with gun racks in the back window, during pheasant season, the rack held shotguns. During deer season the rack held rifles. We had no shootings, after Joe Biden declared school Campuses "Gun Free Zones" mass shootings started to "happen at schools".

Report: 92 Percent of Mass Shootings Since 2009 Occurred in Gun-Free Zones
On October 9, the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) released a revised report showing that 92% of mass public shootings between January 2009 and July 2014 took place in gun-free zones.
The CPRC report was released in response to an Everytown for Gun Safety study claiming only 14% of mass public shootings took place in gun-free zones. Everytown actually claimed 86% of such incidents occurred in places where guns were allowed.

CPRC showed that the 86% claim rests on Everytown’s “inclusion of attacks in private homes” and “numerous errors in identifying whether citizens can defend themselves.” For example, Everytown “[ignores] rules that prevent general citizens from carrying guns [for self-defense]” in certain cities, and they fail to recognize that “allowing police to carry guns is not the same thing as letting civilians defend themselves.”

IMHO, I blame a lot of it on bulling. A lot of the shooters are tired of it.

Monkey See Monkey Do coupled with Target Rich environment with no protection

Gee, let's see...We threw God out of our schools, let our government teach our children that e evolved from ooze one day, monkeys the next! Has anyone seen a monkey or any other species evolve into something else lately like your uncle Herb? Then we threw out corporal punishment in the schools, parents forgot or refused to parent their children so they grew up wild and felt entitled to do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted! Look at the school shootings, you'll find each one was isolated, a loner, and mental illness and should have never had access to a gun of any kind in the first place! Now you've got David Hogg being a professional fear mongerer playing off everyone's emotions of the Florida shooting, a shooting by the way he WASN'T EVEN AT!! And those were his own words!! So who's feeding him all this gun negativity to get the halls of legislators and citizens so worked up about the wrong issue? Yep, the dems and the liberals. Meanwhile the second Amendment is slowly being taken away from responsible citizens who sit back, see the train wreck coming, but can't keep their yes off it and just watch doing nothing. The problem isn't the tool, it's mental illness! According to the FBI & CDC, more people WILL be murdered by use of a club, foot, or fist than any other tool. Guns ranked way on down the list. But we had over 30,000 gun deaths last year!! Sure did! Now, start subtracting the suicides, the accidental deaths, and such, and that number is reduced to about 1,250 deaths per year by gun. Of course these numbers don't include Chicago which no one including our legislature, David Hogg, the City Aldermen of Chicago or the people of Chicago or anywhere else for that matter, seem to give two cents about. David Hogg has this whole nation stirred about 17 dead kids and that's a tragedy to be sure but, he's pointing out the wrong platform and where has he been hiding this whole time while kids ave been dying in Chicago or being slaughtered by the millions in abortion houses? We need to focus on mental health and enforcement of our current laws which are already the best anywhere but like everything else have chinks in their armor as was discovered when the FBI failed to follow up on a complaint which eventually led to people getting killed. Talking to those in law enforcement, for years they have told capital hill that in order to enforce properly they need manpower and for years those on capital hill have given themselves pay increases, bonuses, junkets, and lavished upon themselves many things no average American could ever afford all while just rattling a sabre for show, but no go.

You have hit the nail on the head but no one is willing to admit this fact because it goes against the narrative we have been being spoon feed for all these decades. Some have actively tried to tear away our moral foundations and have left a vacuum in it places and then need to try to find a scapegoat as the answer to the poisonous crop they planted and we are now reaping.

Myth: Mass public shootings are increasing
MASS SHOOTINGS - Mass Public Shootings 1976 through 2011Fact: Over a 35-year period, the number of mass public shootings rose during the violence escalation decades of the 1970s and 1980, then leveled off, despite a growing population and greater availability for firearms (more people, more guns).

Special Note: The FBI created a study of what they labeled “active shooter” events from 2000-2013, but they merged both ASEs and MPSs. Combined, this data shows an increase whereas other studies that separate the two do not. But it must be noted that their study starts in the year 2000, which had an abnormally low number of public shootings (only one).

I agree, people mock Christianity but it makes a better person. Children/teens need to be trained to be good adults. There is a total lack of discipline. Children are being raised with no father's to teach them how to be good men. Girls have no father's to look to as examples of good husband's. Society has pitted women against men and men against women. God is cast out and now children look to other children as examples of how they should act. Finally, social media has given every child the ability to verbally destroy a classmate, torture them to the point where they feel their life is destroyed.... When a child feels all this... They are still children and they will act in the only way they really understand. They will revert to primal instinct and attack their attacker. I simply refuse to believe the any school shooter was a very popular person that was loved and treated well by everybody in school my guess is they were treated horribly they were called names probably pushed around in the hallways please like total s***. It is likely if you just stop the bullying in school you wouldn't get people shot up.
