It’s a monumental moment that has given some survivors hope for change, nearly 12 years after 26 first graders and educators were killed in the shooting.
School shootings in particular are a “new thing” - I’ll grant that. But in general gun violence in the US is definitely not a new thing.
EDIT: Also - schools shooting today are actually still “extreme outliers” on the order of the gang violence of the '30s. They’re far more common than they should be, but they’re still pretty rare given the number of schools in the US.
