The idea that this is the only nation where this happens is racist, because it ignores the even worse atrocities committed in certain parts of the developing world that doesn't get much media coverage here.

When a gang wipes out a village in El Salvador and buries the bodies in mass graves, you barely hear about it here. That's just one example of the kind of violence that happens across the developing world on a regular basis.

"At least we aren't Rwanda" is a low bar for America. And school shootings and related tragedies at this frequency are still uniquely America

I'm just tired of this "we're the only country that XXX" that essentially ignores much of the developing world. The world is not just the US, Australia + NZ, and Europe (oh and Canada too <3)

I know what Americas definition of a school shooting is, and America is the one reporting them.

We're better than the developing world, at least in theory. We shouldn't be compared.

Shitholes are expected to be shitty. We aren't. But we live in a country where the President is now held to Reddit troll standards, so we may be having an identity crisis.

The assertion he is making is that we shouldn't include incidents such as a kid pulling a gun on someone after a personal argument or someone shooting themselves in the parking lot in the same bracket as Nicholas cruz. This is fair to a certain extent. However, what he is very conveniently omitting is that these other examples of people taking guns into schools don't happen in other first world countries either.
