    yeah it is crazy fact of life that schools get shot up so much more frequently than police stations and federal buildings.

    almost like politicians and police are safer than school children in the system run by police and politicians.

      Also that this “fact of life” almost entirely applies only to schools in the US. The world works in mysterious ways indeed. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

        It blows my mind as a non-Amerian that their politicians are saying that the right to own a gun and carry it around is more important than children being able to go-to school without the fear of being killed. That’s just the cost of ‘freedum’.

      Politicians and cops have guns, or other people with guns, to shoot back. Schools do not.

      It’s a class thing.

          That is the case. But it does not make it any less true. Those with weapons are harder to assassinate than those of us without weapons. Again, it’s a class thing and you and I are not a part of that class.
