A Few Numbers

Rember this photo: Stacey Feeley's 3-year-old practicing a lockdown drill and hiding from a potential attacker, June 2016

"Politicians – take a look. This is your child, your children, your grandchildren, your great-grandchildren and future generations to come. They will live their lives and grow up in this world based on your decision." - Stacey Feeley

I think most people would agree that gun violence has not improved in two years, but how much worse has it become? Philip Mudd, former FBI agent and counter-terrorism analyst for CNN, speaking with Wolf Blitzer about the Parkland, Florida shooting.

"A child of God is dead. Can not we acknowledge in this country that we cannot accept this. . . . I can't do it, Wolf."

A few numbers about the US and guns:

There were more than 38,000 gun-related deaths in the US in 2016 . . .

The US is 4% of the world’s population, owns 43% of the world’s guns and is responsible for 34% of civilian mass shootings. Guns in the classroom by TAP The Ale Party

312 US school shootings since 2013 (an average of nearly one a week) . . . Note from Aztec High School shooting in Dec 2017. William Atchison shot two students before killing himself.

7 children and teens die in the US from gun violence (murder, suicide, accident) per day. Candlelight vigil at Virginia Tech after the April 16, 2007 shooting left 32 dead 17 injured.

School shootings with the highest fatalities:

Sandy Hook Elementary School

Dec 14, 2012

Newtown, CT

27 dead and 2 injured

Stoneman Douglas High School

Feb 14, 2018

Parkland, FL

April 20, 1999

Columbine, CO

13 dead and 24 injured

Santa Fe High School

May 18, 2018

Santa Fe, Texas

10 dead and 13 injured

Since Columbine, 214,000 children at 216 schools have experienced gun violence in school.

At least 141 children, educators, and others have been killed, and 284 have been injured during school shootings.
