The students from Uvalde, Texas chanted,"End gun violence" after a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School on May 24, 2022. Eight days after that tragedy, a gunman shot and killed five people at a medical building in Tulsa, Oklahoma. And three days later, three people were killed and 12 injured in a shooting in downtown Philadelphia. The list goes on.

More than a third believe they will run into an active shooter within their lifetime.Psychologist Michi Fu isn't shocked by the numbers.
"How are you able to focus in the classroom if every noise you're hearing in the hallway, you're wondering if it could be an active shooter?" Fu said."I mean, what a way to go through your education career as a student. It's really heartbreaking, and it's something we need to stop." A survey by The Kaiser Family Foundation found 84% of Americans said they have taken at least one precautionary measure to protect themselves or their families from being shot.
