The article is not formatted in a manner that would lend itself easily to cutting and pasting the entire thing here, so I've just posted an excerpt.

I recommend following the link and reading the full article.

“In 1998,” Grossman said, “school violence claimed what at the time was an all time record number of kids’ lives. In that year there were 35 dead and a quarter of a million serious injuries due to violence in the school. How many killed by fire that year? Zero. But we hear people say, ‘That’s the year Columbine happened, that’s an anomaly.’

Columbine happened in 1999. I'm always suspicious of an article that has a major factual error in the first paragraph.

g. Armed citizens can help. Think United 93. Whatever your personal take on gun control, it is all but certain that a killer set on killing is more likely to attack a target where the citizens are unarmed, rather than one where they are likely to encounter an armed citizen response.

Bears repeating.
