Correction

I apologize for an incorrect information in my post today "Not only today's news on shooting"
where I was talking about number of school shootings in the USA in 2013. I listed 14, but missed one page, there were actually 30 shootings in 2013. It is even more disturbing, but it is reality. Amazingly, there are still many Americans who believe there are not enough guns among the public.

Here is the list from Wikipedia:

"This is a chronological list of school shootings in the United States. It consists of incidents in which a firearm was discharged at a school infrastructure, including incidents of shootings on a school bus or near school property while school was in session. This list contains shooting incidents that occurred on the campuses of K-12 public schools and private schools, as well as colleges and universities. This list also contains incidents of where a person intentionally shot him or herself in a suicide or suicide attempt. The incidents below are classified as "school shootings"."
