one wonders how many of these 33 students who were kiled by bad guys were targeted because they were students, and forbidden to carry guns on campus, and would be alive today had they been able to defend themselves.

blamign poverty is disengenuous because poverty is no reason or excuse to shoot someone.The real problem is ignorance. Teach children about guns, rather than Heather’s two daddies, and maybe you’ll see something.

Blair Holt's father, a Chicago police officer, has dedicated himself to curbing gun violence against minors in Chicago — where 33 other students were killed in the same year as his son.

A little research would probably find a significant majority of these "students" to be thugs, perhaps carrying an illegal gun themselves, who were killed by competing thugs in the course of their thug activities.

The emotive word "students" is used precisely because it implies they were all innocent children, students killed by guns rampaging out of control.
