School shooting and violence that leads to death and injury have been happening for too long, when will we realize that something need to change. School shooting after school shooting people are outraged and families separated.
With a look of anger and frustration on his face, Obama spoke forcefully against school shooting and how they are unnecessary and that the amount of resources being spent on school shooting are not enough. He pointed to U.S. lawmakers' refusal to pass gun control measures that he said would curb mass shootings and reduce the level of gun violence.
The USA is not the only place where school shootings are present but it is where school shootings happen the most in a country so developed.

This latest school shooting resulted in a student and teacher killed and another student and teacher wounded. The attached was wearing a mask and supposedly had one or two large knives and a sword.
It's so hard to believe that this is happening... How do you think the government/people can change this?
