At first a seemingly cheesy advert actually does turn out to be a powerful ad, due to the story that's occurring parallel but subtle to the "main" story....the guy was even bullied at 0:52...really sad.

Shame that due to American gun laws they have this problem in the first place.

I do not know the facts and figures however i would hazard a guess that this is the worst place in the world for school shootings.

Gotta be a message there somewhere!! :squirrel::squirrel:

School shootings are not unique to the United States. In terms of death the toll, 13 of the largest 20 school shootings occurred elsewhere.
And most all of those other 13 countries with school shootings had severe restrictions on guns.

#5 #6 Columbine, Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook—these memories are seared into the mind of this American generation. Most, however, fail to remember Hillside Elementary School, Santa Monica College, Northwest High School, and the dozens of other schools attacked in this country since the Sandy Hook shooting in December 2012. Frighteningly, school shootings have become so commonplace in America that our country has grown numb to them. Instead of searching for solutions and proposing a national plan of action, we have accepted school shootings as a tragic norm.

School shootings occur all over the globe, but they happen far more frequently in America than anywhere else. Between November 1, 1991 and July 16, 2013, there were 55 school shootings in America with at least one fatality and more than one intended victim. In the same time period, no other country had more than three such shootings.

Why are school shootings so much more common in America? More puzzlingly, why are they happening so frequently even when overall gun violence in the United States has plummeted nearly 50 percent from 1993 to 2011? Common arguments point to a lack of gun control, mental health issues, and the media’s glorification of shooters. But none of these explanations tell the full story. The underlying reason appears to be a combination of these factors and others that form a unique American culture that perpetuates mass school violence.

For a country with well over 200 million guns in the hands of US citizens it is remarkable that our murder rate is under 5 per 100,000 people, which is nowhere near the top of the list of countries worldwide. Our huge and diverse population cannot be compared to a selective list of countries because doing so offers a biased view of the United States that makes it looks like an especially crime-ridden place. What is the criteria for deciding that the United States shall be compared to Luxembourg but not to Mexico, which has far more in common with the US than Luxembourg in terms of size, history, ethnic diversity, and geography? These comparisons always employ a carefully selected list of countries, most of which are very unlike the United States. They are countries that were settled long ago by the dominant ethnic group, they are ethnically non-diverse today, they are frequently very small countries (such as Norway, with a population of 5 million) with very locally based democracies (again, unlike the US with an immense population and far fewer representatives in government per voter). Politically, historically, and demographically, the US has little in common with Europe or Japan.

#13, #11 is right, I think it's pathetic that they don't teach it anymore, or any penmanship for that matter, you can scribble any which way you want, as long as you produce something onto that paper called homework....now when I went to school....different times, different everything...sad!

Stricter guns laws won't change a thing and the politicians always do peripheral things to get the sheep to believe something is being done so they'll vote for them again.

Sandy Hook shooter's gun was purchased legally by his mother and given to him. She knew he was a psychopath yet she still gave him the gun because they liked to shoot together, if I recall correctly. She was murdered by him so that's one good thing that happened.

Let's not forget that criminals don't buy guns legally, the only thing gun laws do is either delay the inevitable or in most cases makes the honest and upstanding citizen jump through all kinds of nonsensical hoops in order to buy their guns. It does nothing.

Removing all guns only stops gun murders, not murders. And here again, guns will always be available for those wanting them.

What a crock of shit. An excuse for the upper-middle-class liberal deluded narcissistic liberal degenerate pressured by broken family and has a joke for mental health care provider. Has a mother, God bless her, as a single parent attempting to do everything she can to make him a man without a useless father. Absent of all religious values with no pastor or priest that can listen, a coward like his father with no commitments other than pleasing himself but is disappointed that he finds himself excluded by his peers because he is different and shunned. He desperate for normalcy that he can't achieve, so he goes out and revenges himself on those that are weak using a gun as a weapon. I have seen this shit in Boy Scouts, single parent women desperate to help their sons have a male influence because the father is a useless POS that thinks money is the substitute for duty. If you are divorced haven't seen you son or daughter in the last week, you a scum bag and lowest form of animal on the planet.
