In the wake of those shootings, an industry has emerged to try to protect schools โ and business is booming. According to the market research firm Omdia, the school security industry is now worth as much as $4 billion, and it's projected to keep growing.
i'm not surprised or even disappointed, but the existence of a school shooting industry means the existence of school shooting industry lobbyists which means that even if there was a big push to end this societal problem from average people it would basically be impossible.
