It's a rather small list dwarfed by say motor vehicle deaths well over 100 to 1. Doesn't make it any less tragic, but fortunately the quantity overall is far less than the actual horror of these deaths.
It doesn't matter how many school shootings there are there will never be a school shooting that will make headlines like Columbine. I remember when it happened. That was the school shooting that started it all
It starts at home. I was 14 years old when Columbine happened. You know what I’ve noticed that has changed? Father absence. Shitty parenting. We can blame guns, as I once did. But that’s not the root cause. It starts at home. We might not prevent all school shootings, but we could reduce them. Parents today blame teachers and everyone else but themselves. My dad was very strict on me and he sided with teachers when I was bad at school. Now, parents point the finger at teachers.

No teenagers should ever have to face violence on their own at a young age, whether it be at school, mall, movie theater, or other crowded places where it will all most likely take place. Nobody should ever have to endured that. As these five survivors who shared their stories, I'm proud of them all for staying strong all these years and hopefully, their stories keeps being told and shared.
I was in 9th grade when Columbine happened. The following day a friend of mine committed suicide. I remember that time feeling very traumatic, and I didn't even go to school there.

America is a tragedy. I left five years ago due in large part of the fear of random violence. What a terrible thing that this has become the norm in America. Shameful
I was 16 when this happened. My entire high school life was change. I dropped out about 3 mths later. I wasnt even there and about 500 miles away and it effected me so much that i had to drop out. No one understands what a teen goes through when this type of stuff happens. Even when its wasnt directly happing to you. Watching kids your age being dead on tv. Shot and crying. No. It shouldn't have been on the news the way it was. It was awful for me. I was terrified to even look at a school. When my kids started school age. It started all over again. I though i would be ok. Nope. Just the snell of the school set me off. My kids were homeschooled after my oldest first week. Never looked back.

and there are still shootings going on today and we have a big problem and its only going to get worse... I remember Columbine April 20 1999 and then September 11 2001 everything changed forever*** Nothing was ever the same and we had to grow up real fast.
Also no cameras back then either and things were different back then and people managed to live without that junk and no social media either. Times have changed for the worse and its going to get worse and now shootings are the new normal now in everday schools.

What a sad world we live in today.
It would be insane to witness something like this. You would never be the same. I'll never understand why people want to hurt others this badly. The mental health of our youth needs to be taken seriously. I'm glad those two Crumley parents were just found guilty. If you see signs in your own kid get them help. Schools have a huge responsibility in the mental health of kids as well. They spend all day at school, therefore schools are responsible for the children during that time "In loco parentis". My heart goes out to all the families and survivors.
@bsladakovic2939 yes, psychotic. My mom's friend since school lives next door to one of the parents. I used to live there. I attended Columbine Elementary
It's not just those who died that day, but we should also count those who were injured both physically and spiritually. A few students committed suicid3 by 2000 and 2001 because they couldn’t deal with the legacy of the sh00ting
I was 19 and in colorado and I remember watching this graduation and of course this was way before social media, and I thought wow... let these kids go about their lives. the media sensationalized it and still does.
i can only imagine the kids who experience mass shootings like this and Uvalde and Sandy Hook go through… as a child how does one comprehend and get through that?
4-20-99 made me want to hold my child forever and never let go. When it it first happened we had heard it was a different high school. Which was a little closer to where I was. Columbine was a little further but not far. I still remember where I was and what I was wearing.
I was in the 8th grade back in 99, but was supposed to be in 9th. I remember Columbine happening like it was yesterday. Even though from Ky, I Definitely lost my innocence and security that day. Goodbye freedom in schools and hello Cameras and security. Just sad two kids couldn’t look beyond their own misery and ending so many innocent lives for a brief chapter in life. I hated school too, but I knew once it was done I never saw them people again. I blame a-lot of school shootings on the parents as well society in itself. Bullying was a huge problem back then and still is. A-lot of factors plaid into Columbine.
I felt like my generation never did this again or even thought of such a thing (37 years old now).... and now you've got some freaks obsessing over this, idolizing it, and putting us thru this over and over decades later! Same thing with killers, we grew up watching all the same movies, we've seen all the serial killers stories and yet people still won't stop.
It wasn’t a thing they were trained to deal with. It wasn’t normal to have school shootings at this time in history. Now’s it just normalized this was the beginning of the end for school safety
That was the first time a mass shooting of that magnitude happened in school. Unfortunately, they weren’t trained then on how to handle those situations. How, the Ulvade law enforcement should be ashamed! They had plenty of training and were cowards!
