Respond to what, his post does change anything that I said. I agree that it does change what you said because it completely invalidates it. no it doesn't. The fact of my report still stands.

Is that based on number of school shooting or number of people killed in school shootings Its entirely reasonable to believe schools are safer and school shooters have gotten more efficient.(god that sounds like a cod game Lmaoo) 2.
