America isn't having more school shootings its just that the media is just deciding to pay more attention to them.

No, that is incorrect. [url]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/5689760/Mass-school-shootings-double-in-a-decade-report-shows.html[/url] The frequency of mass school shootings in North America has doubled in the last decade (from 2009).

Ok but to be fair one of the main reasons that the number of school shootings is increasing is because the killers are getting publicized by the media and most of them are now probably thinking that if my life has gone downhill and I have nothing to live for and im going to kill myself I might as well be known across the world for it and then another mass shooting happens and judging by the suicide rates in the states I don't expect it to get better if the media keeps talking about the killers.

I second that.
