Virtual school shootings - fredtoast - 03-04-2021
If students were shot while at home during a virtual class session would it still count as a "school shooting"?
RE: Virtual school shootings - fredtoast - 03-04-2021
I say "yes" because the impact would be the same. The victim pool would be the same. All of the killings would be connected through the "school".

Are we talking about ONE isolated shooting, or a shooter who goes from house to house shooting students on Zoom or something?

Multiple students killed while on same zoom session class.

If a tree falls in the woods, and no woman hears it fall, is it still the man's fault?

Depends.
Are there any deaf women nearby?

School can transcend the physical building, but someone being shot while logged on a virtual class meet is not a "school shooting".

I agree with that school of thought.
Most students say they are "in school" during on-line class sessions.

What if someone shoots two janitors who are working at night in a school building?
Is that a "school shooting"?

No, not as we track the statistic in that line of business. We also throw out shootings that occur just outside the building but on the property that isn't during school hours (which is more common than you'd think).

It’s a shooting at school. In the most technical sense it’s a “school shooting” but in the sense that it’s a “school shooting” as in a shooting designed to target minors, no, but that’s only relevant within certain context
