Because the media and the people that count such things were given their marching orders when obama/holder/emanuel took the White House.That is curious, isn't it?
But my first question is, what what do the creators of this graph consider to be a 'school shooting'? We've already seen that they are lumping in shootings near schools as well as shootings that are off hours, such as a drug deal gone bad in a parking lot at midnight. Hardly qualifies as a school shooting.
Help us make the case for gun control!

I'm rather curious about the source of the chart, and the data used to create it also.I figured that much, I just don't know the source of this chart, so I'm curious whose bias is behind it. Was it put out by a pro-gun group? If so, did they use the same distorted numbers that Obama and his cronies do, to try and make their point?
Seeing as the chart seems to show a strong relationship between school shootings and the "Obama gun sales spike".... It would appear that this chart is put out by an anti-gun organization. Really ?? 39 school shootings last year?? 2015 isn't over yet (2.5 months to go) so is that figure a guess-timate, or an actual count with foreknowledge that there will be no more shootings this year??
There is no attribution, no definition of what a "school shooting" is, or even a clear statement of it's being published or reviewed...
...and exactly who is the "MY" in "My Life"?
It was cobbled together to appeal to the "redneck, uneducated, racist, bible clutching " stereotype, that the rabid anti-gun lemming has of gun owners.
The assumption being that we will use it to crow about how Obama caused school shootings, because we're too stupid to figure out what it's real purpose was.
This list seems to be a good source on what is being counted

You can see the most recent one counted was a pellet gun shooting. And many of them are counted because they were in the parking lot after hours.
Yeah, but that was probably one of them fancy high-capacity fully auto pellet guns. And really, who needs that kind of military firepower
If you look at the chart on the bottom (school attacks, not school shootings) there is no trend upward.
we should be referring to school attacks different than a shooting that occurred on school grounds.
The guys name is
Robert Arco
and he runs a facebook page called Gun Rights Collation
This is his link to the data used to generate the charts.
