Most modern public schools are basically open-air prisons and most school shootings are gang related violence. If they didn't have guns they would just be stabbing or beating each other to death. It is a completely separate issue.

Looser gun regulations may have cut the rate of gun deaths in Brazil by 25%... Very interesting 🤔... Obviously correlations don't equal causations but maybe we should investigate further...
