        That list has 4 shootings that happened during USSR time, probably all done by psychos. Meanwhile, the USA will get 4 shootings in a week.

          Yeah, like I said, completely different order of magnitude compared to the US

          But still 15 school shootings since 2000 by my count, not counting “shootings” from air rifles and BB guns, and not including listings where the article didn’t specify method of murder.

          But I also have not taken time to check each and every source, nor do I know how diligently the list is updated to include all reported instances, so I make no claims as to the list’s overall accuracy. Just providing some context re: the post above that asked for examples, so if anyone is curious they have somewhere to start looking.
