Or maybe kids are tired of being shot and killed while trying to learn something at school?


Because that is statistically significant risk and cause of death..

Oh wait, it's not.


Because the statistical probability of a school shooting is low is a reason to ignore them and do nothing?

The statistical probability of a terrorist attack in the U.S. and of airliners being flown into buildings remains impressively low as well. Yet America has totally changed the way we live in the U.S. with increased airport security, and border crossings where we need passports to visit Canada and Mexico. Not that these have made a hill of beans of difference, but the U.S. has made major changes because of events of statistically low probability.

Preventing all school shootings is statistically impossible, but schools could be hardened against unlawful entry, and most school shootings prevented. But since a school shooting is of statistically low probability, I guess you would prefer that nothing be done?
