    School Shootings

    Why does America have so many more school shootings than the rest of the world? Is there anything we can do to end this? I can't imagine how the parents of those three kids who lost their lives must feel.

    Why has there been no substantive action taken? Are we ok with this as a country?

    I believe it is our culture/mentality. Switzerland has more freedom with guns than we do but their peoples mentality is totally different

    It's a shame that not even kids dying in school in droves changes this attitude. I've also never understood the whole "good guy with a gun line."
    If you've ever had the displeasure of seeing a school shooting video, you'd know that by the time anyone "good" could get to a gun, multiple kids are already dead.

    Cannot compare a fairly homogeneous country with 8.7 million people to an incredibly diverse country with over 330 million people.

    It’s not an apples to apples comparison.

    You can when they have the mentality that they do our mentality is based on the individual we chose that. They also have more diversity than you think

    It’s a subjective comparison at best.

    And Switzerland is nowhere near as diverse as the USA is. The USA is an anomaly in terms of diversity.

    Do you think the state of our country leads to worse mental health outcomes over other countries?
