There is a focus on the AR-15 rifle when it comes to school shootings. Why? Ignorance of the phenomena of school shootings, that's why. Also, the anti gunners know that if they can ban the AR-15 rifle they can come back and demand banning all other semi automatic weapons, including rifles, pistols and shotguns, including revolvers, since they all operate the same way as the AR-15 rifle...they are all semi automatic weapons. This is why the anti gunners are now no longer calling for "Assault Rifle" bans, but have moved on to calling for bans on semi automatic weapons...you saw this at the CNN Town Hall after Parkland.
The fact is.....pistols and shotguns have killed more students than AR-15 rifles....which was brought to my attention by the recent mass shooting in Crimea...a country with extreme gun control laws.....
Mass shootings in school gun free zones:
List of school massacres by death toll - Wikipedia
Bath, U.S., (1927) school.... 44 dead, dynamite, bolt action rifle.
Virginia Tech.... 32 dead.... pistols.
Sandy Hook.... 26 dead... AR-15
Crimea school shooting.... 20 dead... pump action shotgun.
Parkland shooting.... 17 dead.... AR-15 rifle.
Dunblane, Scotland, school shooting.... 17....pistols.
Erfut, Germany school shooting.... 16... pistol.
Winnedan, Germany..... 15.... pistol
Umpquaa college shooting..... 9....pistols, had rifle, didn't use it.
