The murder rates in those cities are because of the poverty stricken areas and drug use etc. I hate to say it but the people murdering other people in those areas don't care about mowing down a school full of kids and keep to themselves so to speak. In fact I would even say that jailed criminals from those areas would be the same inmates that kill child molesters in prison. Point being when they murder or break the law its out of a hopeless necessity to stay alive and live the gang life or die. Thats a totally different issue and needs to be addressed asap. We have the same shit in Canada but it tends to stick to poorer areas.
A 19 yo buying ANY gun that can fire multiple rounds from it' chamber with the sole purpose of doing lots of damage so they can shoot up a school is not the same as above. These kids are troubled middle class people that need help. Putting school shootings and homicides from the 'ghettos' is ridiculous imo because the root cause is totally different. The only thing they do have in common is the use of easily accessed weapons.
