What we can do about this is to inform other people. We should also research about the situation to be more informed. If we inform more people about this situation then they will know. When people know of certain things they will also be prepared for the situation. If we prepare there might be less mass shootings across America. We should also check in for our friend's and family's mental health. Bad mental health is one reason for these shootings.

I think that we can have better shooting drills in school. As of now, the shooting drills in school are probably not going to help when there is an actual school shooter. I also think banning guns will help.

The best thing to stop mass shootings is learning. We need to inform people why this is happening and help people understand the situation.

I believe that in order to decrease the amount of mass shootings across America, we should inform people about the consequences that follow when they commit this type of criminal action. A lot of these mass shootings occur out of hatred against a particular race/ethnic group. If we can educate people to understand how traumatizing this situation can be, then maybe we could live more peacefully as a nation in unity, freedom, and justice for all.

I think the best thing to do about this situation is to educate people about the topic and spread awareness so people can be prepared in case there is a mass shooting close to where they are. Moreover, I think we need to check up on family and friend's mental health since people could be very stressed and worried in this situation, which may lead to panic.

Nothing...we can do nothing about these mass shooting or just shooting in general because no matter what, there will be someone with a gun and shoot it at someone for money or whatever they do it for. But I will say maybe the law of US citizens having the right to bear arm (own a gun) has something to do with the fact that shooting happens often.

There's not a lot we can do, they know the consequences of doing these mass shootings and crimes, the best we can do is probably sit and wait, and hope nothing really bad happens to the people around us, and that these shootings would die down, maybe america could make stricter gun laws, but I doubt that would happen

We can learn about this and find out why some people are doing this. And the people are doing this should go to jail so they would not be able to do this again so this would happen less often.

I think what we can do about this is limit the amount of guns in the states where the shootings are happening. They won't be able to shoot without guns or at least be as dangerous without guns. However, based on other student's comments It seems like educating other people about the shootings is also seems to be a good idea. I don't think it would really help right now but it would probably be a lot more effective than banning guns in specific states in the long run.

I do not think there is much we can do to stop mass shooting. Yes you can check on peoples mental health especially today with all that is happening, but it won't stop mass shootings. You can put the shooter in jail but most shooters kill themsleves after the mass shooting, We can get stricter gun laws, but if someone wants to get a gun they will. So in my opinion I don't think there is much we can do to stop mass shootings.

I think we can spread more awareness to people, especially children, In addition have more precautions. For instance, having more strict police watches over places where mass shootings have occurred or might occur and keeping up with the news to make sure where you are is safe and to be better educated with what's going on.
Jerry Zhang

We should find out why they are doing this and what they want. Then we can give them some sort of punishment and send out a message to the other people who do this.

I think that the best course of action is to stay safe is to stay inside. Another good way would be to try and find the motive behind the shootings or make sure to have the police keeping watch in the areas with a higher chance for there to be a mass shooting.

I think there isn't much we can really do to prevent it in a way. All we can do to keep everyone safe is spread awareness and have everyone that does goes out to be prepared incase something does happen.

I don't feel much can be done because the only thing I'd say to do is to tighten up gun laws but many people don't want to do that.
Edmond Jiang

I think making gun laws more strict so that only people that actually need them can have them would decrease the amount of shootings but there will always be shootings and I don't think there is anything else we can do.

It's quite have guns at home for protection and a lot of people that live normal lives can do anything from even if their background is clean. We have to keep the mental state of the people here on track. I think the only thing we can do is avoid crowded area but that can't be help when people have to work. Everyone is under a lot of stress from the pandemic but homicides aren't the solution.

I think that the most we can do is to protect those who are close to you and spread the message to stay safe because we can’t really prevent people to get guns. I think that spreading the word across communities and keeping an eye out for your neighborhoods is important for the safety of everyone. Also keep up with the news.

In order to stop gun violence, I think that we should help others who seem like they are not themselves. The pandemic has created this dark cloud and has affected many people's mental health. In addition, the US government should make gun laws more strict. However, by making gun laws more strict, this could endanger the lives of families because they do not have firearms to protect themselves. Also, those who own firearms would protest that they should not make gun laws more strict.

What we can do is spread awareness on why this is happening, like any driving factors to lead someone to do such a thing. Moreover, we can educate people on how to handle a situation like that as safely as possible so perhaps less people will have to be wounded/killed. Furthermore, we can also restrict gun accessibility and show the consequences that'll happen if someone decides to go on a mass shooting.

I think upgrading security around places with more people (like schools or other public areas). I also think that laws on bearing arms should be more strict, and only limiting them to those that actually need them. Spreading awareness and staying safe in general is also very important.
Zihao Huang

We can help educate people the dangers of gun violence, have more police in certain areas, create a harder way to access a gun, and we can help people who are feeling down. As in their mental state.

We can pass bills to tighten gun control laws and limit them so only law enforcement can get access to them.
Cynthia L.

I think we should just try to stay safe and protect one another and avoid areas that would most likely have trouble. There isn't really something we can do to stop the mass shooting because there is always that one person who would rebel and think the opposite. Maybe making the gun law more strict and have severe punishment if shooting does happen. Extra security.

There’s not much we can do but the best thing is to educate people on the topic, be prepared if a mass shooting happens, and try to stay away from large areas where shootings can happen.

I think limit the time outside. Also stay in area where there are more people. To also spread awareness about how mass shootings are not okay.

Ying Zhu

I think that people should stay inside more often and be with a group of people they know like family members or friends. We should also spread messages to tell other people about whats happening and to stay safe or avoid going to a certain area where there are people with guns.

To prevent mass shootings, I think the police force will have to be more spread out, so any suspicious activity can be stopped quickly. In addition, shootings can be prevented if people had self-defense items, such as pepper spray.

We need gun laws. People are just walking around with guns and this is happening if guns weren't allowed shootings wouldn't happen as often so we need restrictive gun laws. No Guns.
Xi Ling Z.

I think we should spread the awareness and try to stay away from the shooting. If possible, try to limit the number of guns sold or try to increase the price of the guns so that less people is able to buy it.
Kayla Li

I think we need stricter gun laws. I don't think anyone should be allowed to buy a gun. I also think there should be more security guards at schools to spread awareness of an active shooter and protect as many kids as possible. In addition, I think that lockdown drills should be changed. Often when they is a school shooting, the shooter is a student. That means that the shooter was in the classroom with us while we practiced the drill.

We need to find ways for guns to not fall into the hands of people with malicious intent; gun control is a serious issue at the moment in America. Not only is gun control too loose here, these times make many prone to mental health concerns. I believe what fuels many of these shootings are hate and sadness.
Johanna L
4/19/2021 05:43:11 pm
I think the best way we can help is to stay informed and tell others you know about what is going on. Research situations or the mass shootings you see of online to get a better idea but other than that there isn't much we can do to help.

I thing what we can do is controlling guns and educate peoples when they are in elementary school and also controlling those shooter games and movies.

I think what we can do about this is to spread awareness to the people who don’t know that there are shootings around America because there’s nothing we can do about the shootings that much because they always happened due to getting it from a different place.

I think the first step is for the government to notify people that mass shootings are occurring and that people should be warned. There should be rules and regulations about weapons in public places like stores and e.t.c. Mental health also is a major factor. Things like death threats or any sort of shooting or stabbing threats should be monitored by the local police department. These steps would definitely help lower some of these shootings.

The only thing that we can do as of right now is to educate people on why guns are dangerous. We should also do frequent background checks on the people who are purchasing weapons, to ensure that they won't use it for bad. Another thing we can do is to talk about racially charged crime and spread awareness to the groups bein targeted so we can be safe. In the end, mass shooting is really hard to stop but if we educate enough people and spread awareness about the issue, people will start being more careful.

I think that it better for people to get educated and learn how dangerous it could get during a situation like this especially since it happening around America. I think it would also be very helpful to warned people and let them know.

I think that they should shut down gun shops so people arent allowed to get guns anymore, yea guns are for hunting, police, and keeping your family safe. But that doesnt mean having a gun means to just shoot for fun, This needs to stop 4/21/2021 10:23:28 am
Restrict gun use for example if you are gonna get a gun you have to be trained with it for about 6 months before getting the gun. This will reduce the amount of shootings. Another solution is to talk about the importance of the gun not just simpily saying why is dangerous. Talk about how guns could cause violence and how it would be used properly to defend yourself. Another reason is to talk about major figures involved with the gun to give a better understanding for those who might wanna get a gun.

We must include a assesment required to test your mental health before you purchase a firearm, this is important as the assesment will detect potential mass shooters and keep them from getting their hands on a firearm.

I think that this is not safe because people are trying to survive and want to stay safe live as long as they can and provide for anyone that they care about. This has been an ongoing situation and America and many solutions have been provided however, people will always find loopholes and ways to get anything they want.
Anthony Chin

In my eyes, the most safest way, is to spread word about a lock down, So less shootings will happen, furthermore Police Officers should take a huge action into this and investigate the entire area.

As is, for practically any social issue, there is no way to completely "solve" this problem. The only thing we can do, is to minimize such things from occurring as much as we can. The most effective way of doing this, is educating and spreading this information to others; and why it is so horrendous. Teaching and practicing gun safety is also an option, as well as making sure there is mental support to those who feel they may have such an tendency. Making sure all buildings, especially schools, have safety precautions against this, and to keep new technology that may aid in the prevention of mass shootings up to date.

There is not a lot of thing we can do about this. I think the best thing you can do is to stay at home and go out when ever you need while the government will take care of this. Another thing you can do is maybe try to learn some karate to protest yourself.

To stop guns being bought. Since shootings happen with guns so if guns are stopped being produced to the public, it can somewhat stop the shootings.
