In the last month, 100 school shootings have been reported. This is a dramatic increase compared to last year. In the shootings 502 students have been injured and 100 students have been reported dead. Many parents are worried about their kids going to school. Therefore a lot of kids have been staying home and getting homeschooled by their parents. I talked to Bradley, 14 years old in Alaska, about just this. He told me he was scared about getting killed, and that his friends think the same. His parents are very worried. He also told me he started bringing knives to school for his own safety. The knives are very sharp and could easily kill a person.
Bradley is not the only one taking actions like this. Many Americans do not feel safe at their home nor their school. There have been many demonstrations against just this and how the police don't take this seriously. Many demonstrations have been about where the kids get their guns from. A lot of conspiracy theories have been made. Some of them think that the school shooters get paid to kill kids due to kids' lack of intelligence. Our president said in a statement that this is not true and, I quote, "It's a ridiculous accusation".
The news about the school shootings in America and Americans getting upset is spreading across the world to countries we Americans didn't know existed.
