    It’s already been 2 days since the last mass shooting, and the number of school shootings per year never exceed the number of days in a year, so it’s safe to say we still have gaps, but especially in recent years, the numbers are… not looking good.

    As in: just 15 days out of all of 2023 would have had no school shootings, if there was only 1 per day.

      Do kids go to school every day of the year? I thought they where free on weekends and hollidays.

        I acknowledge your point but in fairness the question was when was the last day we experienced no school shootings

          Then you need to consider unreported school shootings.

          If somebody goes on a Sunday and starts shooting, will they know if the bullet holes are new or from the last shooting?

          It also means if we take out the weekends and holidays from the equation that there were more school shootings than school days in that year.

          Kinda depressing to think it doesn’t stop during the weekends. Fairnff that that was the question tho.
