And that has to happen now.”The NRA is in a tough position on school shootings. So once every 140,000 school days or so, there was a shooting incident at an Alabama school. But it gives a sense of the rarity of a shooting incident at any particular school in any given state. This argument might easily be extended, too, to question the need for curtailing firearm ownership if school shootings are so rare. It’s worth noting, though, that while school shootings only happen at schools, schools aren’t the only place shootings occur.
