Mass shootings
« on: December 13, 2013, 02:55:14 PM »
We should probably just have one thread given the regularity with which it happens.

In today's fun and games, a gunman has opened fire in a high school in Colorado, 10 miles from Columbine. There were reports of injuries, currently it looks like the shooter is injured and the school is being evacuated.

Update: shooter is dead from a self-inflicted injury. Was a student.

Further update: one student seriously injured with a gunshot wound, another not so serious. Shooter was apparently after a specific teacher.

I don't see any Canadian entries in there......so, I do.

The last school shooting in Canada was 1999. Prior to that it was 1975. I'm presuming that the reason for so few school shootings in Canada is because we have all those armed teachers acting as a deterrent.

Well it's certainly not gun ownership:

You didn't say anything about Canadian kids.

But since you asked: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:School_killings_in_Canada

Maybe you should avoid shooting threads, you're bad at them.

1/3rd the rate of the US.

I'd like to see the distribution of the type of firearms and the purposes.

Quite a bit of hunting grounds in Canada. I imagine a lot of hunting rifles and shotguns

Actually, that's a really skewed way of using the statistic. Private ownership of firearms in metropolitan areas is virtually non-existent - the vast majority of firearms in Canada are owned by people who live in rural areas, and the vast majority of those firearms are rifles and shotguns because bears and moose and excrement.

That was exactly my suspicion
