we all know the real problems, the things that distinguish america from the rest of the civilised world: mental health, not enough security guards, doors...

joking aside, the real solution here is distance learning

Instead of large school buildings for K-12, parents just drop their kids off at a handpicked 'daycare facility' which plugs them into the video chat network for their school district. 20-30 kids per building who all know each other. Each student's computer connects them to the class they are supposed to have for that period.

wrong again
segregation is not the answer
happiness is the salvation (not trying to sound like frodo or something)
and in this case, it wasn't even about economic disparity
could be small peen or some other genetic issue
could be a lot of things
but you want a generation of screens-worshipers?
i think we nearly have that right now. how's it working out so far?

that future is already set in stone. Since there is no way to avoid it, we might as well take advantage of some of the positive avenues it opens up.

i don't think a 20-30 kid building is necessarily the best solution to shootings, but im certainly on board with updating the teaching methods and logistics w/ computer age tech to improve quality and decrease cost.

36 fatalities / 326,766,748 people in America.

This just doesn’t strike me as a huge problem.

You’re almost as likely to get trampled to death by a cow/horse or get struck by lightning.
How many of you are scared of either of those things?

Question - what are the pertinent differences between America and countries that haven't had more than one mass shooting per week so far this year?

Plenty of other countries aren't ruled by dictators and don't have this problem.
