Will Trump control guns?

Yet another day. The most powerful democracy of the world woke up to the news of another shooting in a school killing one child and teacher injuring several others. But this time the difference was that the shooter was a girl who shot herself dead after the heist.

A 15-year-old shooter was a student at the school Natalie Rupnow, who also went by the name Samantha girl opened fire in a Wisconsin school classroom on Monday leaving a fellow student and a teacher dead and wounding six others before killing herself with the handgun.

The shooting took place in a mixed-grade study hall at the Abundant Life Christian School, which has 420 students from pre-kindergarten to 12th grade on its rolls.

There have been 322 school shootings in the United States this year, according to the K-12.

School Shooting Database website. That is rated as the second highest total of any year since 1966 topped only by last year's total of 349 such shootings.

Monday's shoot was a rarity in that it was carried about by a girl. Who account for about 3% of all U.S. mass shooting, studies show.

Only last month President Biden had announced new laws to control gun laws Nothing happened.

And nothing was expected. Not because it was ordered by Biden but because the country he presides over is USA.
