Uh, no. It's nowhere near the same level of problem in other countries as it is here. Trying to "what about Europe" as a gotcha isn't trying to solve the issue, it's diminishing the reality that the USA has a fundamentally flawed issue around gun rights and fun control, and we pay for that problem with too many dead kids.
That's ... not what I was doing? Why read it in the worst way possible?
I'm saying: it's untrue that everywhere else in the world is happy school time, that the problem is unique to the US.
People are people. If you want to understand the factors that drive a person to hurt their classmates, it's even more useful to consider the whole of contexts in which that happens, instead of wrongly pretending it doesn't happen in the rest of the world.
