School shootings don't happen anywhere near weekly in the US. They are a freak event as I showed already. Other countries also have freak violent events that don't happen in the US. For example, acid attacks, car bombings, sword attacks, and so on.
In 2023 there were 14 deaths from mass school shootings.
