Why Don't School Shootings Happen In The 'Hood'?

Why don’t school shootings occur in the ‘hood’? A question which has circulated around social media since the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida.

The incident left 17 students dead and 14 wounded after 19-year old, Nikolas Cruz opened fire. He has since been booked on 17 counts of premeditated murder.

Many believe gun control is the main issue, but if gun control is the problem, why don’t these incidents occur in inner-city schools?

There aren’t enough stats, to say why definitively. Regardless, lets talk about it. Schools in rural areas are different, in comparison to urban schools. Typically, rural students are majority white, coming from a two parent homes and they attend large schools with minimal security.

In contrast, urban schools are typically majority black or non-white, with multiple schools sharing one building. Students come from single parent homes or they live with relatives other than their parents.

For the sake of discussion, lets say both rural and urban students have equal access to guns. However, even Cardi B can attest to the criminalization of urban students. In a recent Instagram post which reads: “Ya wanna know whats the problem? That the government only put metal detectors in schools in the Hood!”

Why are these students viewed as a threat? Why are their bodies heavily policed? Yet these mass school shootings don’t happen in the hood.

We must closely examine our culture and society. Typically, school shooters tend to be loners and social outcast who have no place to belong to to. Now this doesn’t mean only rural students can be loners or outcast. However, when you come from the hood, even if you have no friends at school: you still feel a sense of connection to your neighborhood.

The problems that each race faces in their environment–differ which means where and how crimes are committed differs as well. While a white child may be angry over an impending divorce, parents lack of attention or losing a resource they’ve become accustomed to. These issues are common place in the black community. As a result, a black child is more likely to worried about going to bed hungry. So school can be a place of refuge, at least they can eat. They may be escaping the roaches and mice which can come along with living in the hood.

Also there a difference in mentality. If two black students get into a problem at school, they will usually fight a couple times before gunplay. If it escalates to gunplay, the problem stays between them, with an intended target. Furthermore, incidents occur outside, away from school.

Lastly, as a whole, we need to reevaluate how we handle and diagnose childhood anger, majority of school shooters have a history of prescribed psychoactive drugs. Are these drugs really treating the issue or are they simply pacifying it?

The truth of the matter is, social isolation/ feelings of rejection, coupled with a violent streak or anger issues can produce a school shooter.

Sounds like cacs are upset that they can't use the b b but black kids do it too angle. Uh because we bring weapons to school for protection, . Yeah it's sad but that's the way it is. I can't speak on white kids because I don't know too much about em.

First I have to say Cardi B is a beautiful woman women are beautiful human beings in Life

Yes There needs to be more mental health awareness and helping people who have a lot of resentment and anger in their Life with therapy

Black serial killers and black spree killers are ignored. Nikkas spray up multiple people all of the time.

Nikkas have nothing to lord over cacs.

Cruz is LATIN not cac. Why isn't this framed as a brown issue? Where is Latino scrutiny?

Latino is not a race. He’s white and was affiliated with alt-right and white nationalist groups.

According to CNN, Cruz advocated for the killing of Mexicans, blacks, and gay people. He said that his hate for black people was "simply because they were black"; he referred to white women in interracial relationships as traitors, and he also expressed anti-immigrant and antisemitic views.[50]

Latino isn't a race -- except when it is.

He is Latino. As such, what he pulled needs to be examined through the lens if Latino -- not the lens of Anglo.

EurasianTiger used to be an alt-right white supremacist, too. But he's Hapa. Same with Elliot Rodgers, who never woke up. They are both white men in Asian bodies but that doesn't make them Anglo.

White means Anglo. Even when it doesn't.

Grouping the sins of non Anglo whites with those of Anglo whites is a Vulcan chess move that benefits no one on the ground.

Cruz' actions need to be examined from his Latino-ness as well as his honorary cac-ness, because the shyt CNN wrote is about a nonWASP trying very hard to fit in as whiter than white while not being Anglo.

Both are false. The AP had to issue a retraction. ***** also trolled a number of media outlets that didn't bother to do any verification.

Metal detectors are a huge deterrent, but these white folks don't want them to sully the schools they send their kids to. They'll the hard way every time.

Cause more than likely, the knucklehead attending a black school would rather drop out and body that ONE person over shooting an entire school over a petty beef.

I bet you that school shooter had strict parents that forced him to go to school and not able to do anything see outside of academics. For some people, academics is another way of a lobotomy in terms of personal development.

 

[MR. SNIFLES]

BECAUSE NOBODY CARES ABOUT BLACK KIDS. PEOPLE SHOOT UP SCHOOLS FOR REACTION OR ATTENTION TO WHATEVER THEY'RE INTO. SHOOTING UP AN INNER CITY SCHOOL WOULD BE ON THE NEWS ONE DAY AND THAT WOULD BE THE END OF IT.

Uh you do realize he got that last name from the family who adopted him right?

And one more thing. Find Spain on a map for me considering that's where the Spanish originated from.

[BaileyPark31]

Black male shooters tend to target individuals (& hit unfortunate bystanders) they have a beef with.

White males shooters tend to wanna take out groups of people they have a one sided beef with. (As in the victims dont even know the shooter or understand why theyre a target).

Both situations are fuked up.

 

[TransJenner]

I mean they kinda do just not in the schools

No I did not realize he got the last name from the people who adopted him. That makes it worse.

To be Spanish in America is equivalent to being a Cac calling one's self native American or a nikka calling one's self French.

The Spanish in America are Indians (and Africans) who no longer have a tribe. They speak the language of the men who raped their mothers and chopped off the feet of the fathers. But they are not real Spanish anywhere except in the New World.

Someone needs to run a regression on the variables specifically income status, race and city/state . then compare it to the most violent gun cities in the inner city, specifically black dominant cities.
