Or, there's also Ani DiFranco's take on how school shootings make news when it's the middle class areas:
"and every year now like christmas
some boy gets the milk fed suburban blues
reaches for the available arsenal
and saunters off to make the news
and the women in the middle
are learning what poor women have always known
that the edge is closer than you think
when the men bring the guns home"

Basically, no school shooting is worse or more tragic than the other one. Does a kid being shot in Southeast DC more tragic than if it happened in my town? No.
