School Shootings

School shootings are a lethal type of school violence that always leads to serious injury or death. This type of violence atractted the public's attention due to the rise of deaths and murders that were started in far locations. The string of tragedies forced the United States to acknowledge the serious problem of youth violence. The common theme in these "episodes" was a perception of the perpatrators as outsiders who had been ridiculed and teased by their peers. Some people think that it was a way to get attention of the perp's suffering since some of these horendous actions would be displayed in the "good" schools or schools that would have never had thought to experience the catastrophe of students, teachers, and school workers being shot by a burning, hot bullet. There have been some other factors locating these shootings in urban schools, found in poor inner cities, who have been known to cause trouble over the years.
