That's where most of this stems from kids being bullied. The kids may tell a teacher are principal and nothing is done. They don't take the child serious when they tell them. And kids get tired of being bullied and they are scared to fight so they bring guns to stop it. And there no reason for it to go so far. Parents talk to your children and find out if the are being bullied they talk too the school. There has to be common ground.
