it's the killers. In high school, English 4, one could write an essay about whatever you wanted, (well, within reason), and bring a prop/subject of essay to school. On essay day, it was allowed to bring a rifle or shotgun to class. Nobody was ever wounded/killed to my knowledge, because of responsibility. Some schools in the past actually had ranges, and had .22 rifle leagues. Hunters would bring their guns, and leave them in their cars. No mass shootings.
