*day
lol yeah, right? Being able to say “every year,” would be nothing short of a miraculous improvement for us…
Imagine living in a country where having one school shooting every year would be a miraculous improvement. I really feel for the US.
More likely daily/weekly unfortunately
Sure it sounds bad when you point out that it happens almost every day. But, that is just an average over the span of a year.
When you really look at it and realize that most schools in the US are closed for at least a month's worth of holidays, 3 months for summer vacation, and of course 2 days out of every week. Well, then you will see that it's really much much worse than you originally thought.
IIRC some days don't have a school shooting. Not sure about weeks or months though.
