Today, another school has suffered a mass shooting. This time the heartbreaking event took place at a school in Madison, Wisconsin. Our hearts go out to the families who sent their children and loved ones to school today for the last time.
The state superintendent, Dr. Underly, mourns the loss of life in a statement released by the board of education: “Our schools are meant to be safe places.”
This marks the 488th mass shooting of 2024 in the US, according to the Gun Violence Archive.
I think this situation is unacceptable. Do you think the US is doomed to always have daily mass murders? If not, how can we prevent school shootings and other mass shootings? Please share your ideas so we can find a solution that the country as a whole will be satisfied with.
How would you handle this?
