    Even amid growing protests to make gun laws more stringent and curb gun violence in the US, another report of a school shooting has come in this week.

    On Tuesday morning, a gunman walked into Reynolds High School in Troutdale, Oregon, and killed one student and injured a teacher. According to police, he then took his own life in a school bathroom while cops encircled the building.

    Thankfully, the teacher will survive his wounds on this occasion, but there have been a staggering number of these school shootings since the Sandy Hook shooting in December of 2012.  To be exact, Tuesday’s hit brings the total to 74 in a year and a half.

    74!

    As a parent, you expect to be able to send your child to school safely with the most dangerous part of the day being the commute to and from the institution. This has proven not to be the case in the US at the moment and frankly it is horrifying.
