interesting that gun suicides went down when students were learning from home, rather than at school. Reduced bullying, or was the early pandemic grill & chill as good for other peoples’ mental health as it was for mine?
I think school shootings “declined” because there wasn’t a school to go to, not suicides.
What? Gun suicides did go down too though only barely
Yes, but in this graph the decline was around 2017-2018.
It wasn’t really much either. It might be statistical noise more than anything meaningful now that I’m looking at it more closely
I went to university with a lot of Americans in Ireland and the stories they’d tell, nerds, jocks everyone. It sounded brutal, the popularity contests and the bullying. Nobody thought of their school days fondly.
Overwhelmingly black children
