Just a little reminder that here in Europe, we play the same exact video games as youth from the United States
We do not have (daily) school shootings however
Instead of blaming video games, start looking at the super easy to get weapons on each corner of street problem
Games are not the problem, weapons are 🇺🇸
@stux I was going to say that we have daily MASS shootings, but SCHOOL shootings are rarer. Sadly, it looks like school shootings are between weekly and daily, depending on how you count.

Regular school shooting is apparently unique to USA.
In my country, in 1 century we've encountered this 1 time. (4 dead & many injured)
If we count unique murdering, the total goes to 6 times.
And we are one of the most impacted country in the EU. Many other country are far less
PS: I know that is to be informative you said that, but this is just to put in perspective with people like us, where daily or weekly is A LOT when most of us never known a single one
@peterdrake @stux
If I can rassure you, we are not immunized from all of that, but concerning violence, if someone want to engage a mass murder, he will have to planning it patiently and it will be very complicated
This reason alone exclude many act to be committed I think
