    It’s not the number that matters, it’s whose kids it is getting killed. If someone were to shoot up a school filled with politicians’ kids you’ll see some change rapidly.

      When a dude’s gettin’ bullied and shoots up his school

      And they blame it on Marilyn and the heroin

      Where were the parents at?

      And look where it’s at

      Middle America, now it’s a tragedy

      Now it’s so sad to see

      An upper-class city havin’ this happenin’…

      but its less likely to happen since private schools tend to be in wealthy areas, and is probably gated up. and PRIVATE school admins/rich parents are very quick to get rid of “problem students” aka “quiet dismissal but not outright expulsion”, a public schools wont do that, unless it becomes serious. i was in a sub about youtube channels owner(used to follow who sent thier kid to a private school, he was forced to leave because he was displaying aggressive behaviour from seizure meds, and the school was pressuring/ostracizing the students to leave the school, last i heard the kid sits at home and does nothing.)

        Doesn’t really change the fact that it’s more about whose child it is getting killed. They don’t care til it happens to them, the fucking GOP in a nutshell… Even then, significant change for the better is a crapshoot at best.
