14 Children and Teacher Killed in Texas Elementary School Shooting

Wow, again loramin with the "hey if you look at this one specific, narrow sample, it's sort of higher in a specific way if you're measuring "mass shootings" by some arbitrary definition you just made up!"

That's not how statistics work. But even if it was, what is your point? An armed guard in that school would have almost certainly prevented that.

And let's say you could somehow magically wave a wand and only cops would have guns? Cool, fine, there should STILL be an armed guard in that school cause the psycho who did this could have just stabbed a bunch of kids instead.

Make a coherent argument, pearl clutching about the scary guns is just an insanely low resolution way of thinking about this problem.

Actually, I did nothing of the sort: I avoided exactly the sort of trap you keep trying to use, by referencing an objective 3rd party.

You just didn't like how that objective 3rd party contradicted your incorrect view of reality.

Yes the nefarious TRAP of internally consistent logic. Sorry about that.

The trap of you cherry-picking a response any statistic I could possibly provide. I avoided it by not providing just one fact, but instead a deep and thorough analysis by an objective third party ... and you ignored it and pretended I'd given you a specific single fact you could "disprove".
