That number isn't correct. 

That includes suicides with no other victims, accidentally discharging a weapon without hitting anyone, intentionally discharging a weapon without hitting anyone, a 3rd grade child pulling the trigger on a school resource officer's gun, shooting a gun outside of a school but technically on school grounds, etc.

Of the first 14 "school shootings" only two people died and that was from suicide. 

There were 3 deadly shootings and I could only find two that could be described as "school shootings" as intended to be used.

So just out of interest, does a "shooting" only count if someone dies?

I mean for me, the biggest issue is that there are guns present in school grounds anyway!

80% of what I talk about is nonesense.. the other 25% is made up statistics...
