School Shootings

Before the Bullet

School shootings are a serious issue in the U.S., killing dozens of people each year. Many perpetrators feel anger, resentment, and social isolation, often seeking revenge against bullies, parents, or society. Factors like bullying, abuse, mental health struggles, and easy access to firearms contribute to these tragedies. Some shooters are influenced by violent ideologies or past attacks.

Prevention relies on recognizing early warning signs. Schools and communities can help through mental health support, conflict resolution, and responsible gun laws. Addressing the root causes by combining education and community engagement to create safer learning environments for everyone.
