'Gun Control' Doesn't Stop
Shootings Outside The United
States, So It Won't Here Either

School shootings are once again in the news. There were two last week. When the pundits in the media and online talk about school attacks, a false narrative often emerges that it is a uniquely domestic "American epidemic," fostered by widespread firearms ownership and insufficient firearms regulation.

'Gun control' activist Shannon Watts tweeted, "America is the only high-income country to have constant shootings on school grounds, and to do absolutely nothing to stop it." Everytown for Gun Safety tweeted, incorrectly, "This is the 81st mass shooting of 2025 and the 18th shooting on a college campus in 2025. It's not a coincidence that we have a gun homicide rate 26x that of peer nations."

Then-President Barack Obama uttered a similar sentiment in 2015 when he said, "The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world." Corporate media and anti-gun advocacy groups reinforce this narrative constantly, shaping public perception and driving political agendas.

But here's the sleight of hand: When attempting to make a point about targeted school attacks, activists change the terminology to the more generic "gun homicide," or "mass shooting." Gun homicide is any murder committed with a firearm. The causes and solutions to each of these problems is unique. The point of claiming America suffers from exponentially more gun violence serves one purpose: pressuring lawmakers to enact stringent 'gun control' measures. .....
