Nothing on that site claims that it's "school" shooting. Just "Mass Shootings".
The simple answer is that they don't happen everyday...
Right... So where on that site does it say there's a school shooting every day? Where on the source site that they were discussing (https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting)... does it say that as well?
@MNByChoice added relevance by stating that there was one for that day... They're just behind. So where's Monday? Last Week? The Week Before?
I looked at the site. I didn't walk away with the idea that there's school shootings every day. Virtually ALL of the recorded figures that I saw for weeks on end were 18+ and didn't appear to be around schools.
