On another site, someone claimed that since 1999 there have been 26,000 students killed in school gun violence. That’s well over 1,000 a year. Does anyone know where that stat is coming from?

In 2016 ALL homicides with victims under 18 total 736. The only way he gets that number is by counting ALL homicides of those 18 and under.

And yes, from looking at the figures, it looks like the bulk of those homicides are from youth crime (gangs, etc), and over 60% are of blacks.
