According to the School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey being a victim of crime at school is rare, yet we are all too familiar with names of schools that experienced horrific violent crimes, including Sandy Hook & Marjory Stoneman High School. I am interested to hear your perspective on why it appears that violent crime at US schools is a growing concern. What is contributing? What changes would you recommend be made?

In my opinion I think violet crimes at US schools is a growing concern because the people who are doing these violent crimes are bored due to the pandemic. Being locked in a home or being in a toxic environment changes people and can possibly make them extremely dangerous and violent. I would put more security in schools and do many check in’s with the students and staff. I would have people train the kids and teachers what to do if they were ever put in a dangerous crime.

Violent crimes are becoming “more popular” throughout the us school, due to almost no gun laws. it’s needed that there are gun restrictions, and background checks, but it would disproportionally attack people of color when that happens. there was a study done, that it was much more common for white people to do this, specifically boys, due to some hormonal thing, that makes them get to a breaking point faster. the school shootings are in fact growing, possibly due to no one taking action.

Climate change and the human race not doing anything about it
