To add to that, these stats can tend to be skewed a bit. For example, is it a school shooting if someone shoots a gun while at a school that closed for the day?

To add to that, these stats can tend to be skewed a bit. For example, is it a school shooting if someone shoots a gun while at a school that closed for the day? Is it a school shooting if it's at a school that is completely closed down? Also, is there a school shooting in every other month of the school year since we started recording? Maybe March is some weird outlier. Unfortunately, it really feels like today's news seem to prioritize clicks over real information, so it's hard to trust what they say. Multiple sources are good when they don't reference each other as a source. But sometimes they just spout stats without actually vetting the stats themselves. It's hard to have a good feel for whether any story is written by a freelancer spitting out a quick article for cheap, or someone who really did some research about the subject.
