Twice a week? According to this, there were 346 school shootings in the US in 2023. Almost enough for one per day. Then remember holidays and the winter and summer breaks...
I think this stat only counts K-12 schools too, not colleges.
Oh god, why do I do this to myself...fuck, ok, here we go

Like almost all gun statistics that are shared in left-leaning media, this one is grossly misleading.
Casting a wide net, the database captures not only incidents in which a gun is fired on school property, but also those in which a bullet hits school property, whether or not school is in session. Incidents in which a gun is brandished but not fired and those in which there are no victims are also included.
So in this case, a "school shooting" can include incidents where there was literally not a single shot fired at all by anyone. A kid bringing his parents' gun to school and showing it to his friends is counted as a "school shooting".
People are not rational when it comes to guns, abortion, anything to do with children, etc. Contributing information is usually a bad idea and roundly rejected.
