    At a Christian school?! I thought prayers and bibles in every room prevented stuff like this?

      It’s thoughts and prayers, but you’re unlikely to get any critical thinking out of a Christian school.

    “Abundant Life Christian School officials asked for prayers on Facebook.”

    Does this count toward both the school shooting tally and the church shooting tally?

    No way to prevent this.

    This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen, and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop them.

      I think the real solution is no media coverage and stop counting how many happen. It worked for covid…

      /s if that wasn’t clear.

      One of the earliest widely publicized school shootings was a female shooter in San Diego, 1979. The shooter’s explanation inspired the song “I don’t like Mondays”.
