No it isn't. They are just using statistical cherry picking. In the '90's when there was a lot more gang violence there were more shootings at schools, but these usually involved very small numbers and the victims were targeted for a reason (usually gang membership).
However if you just look at the number of shootings were at least 4 people were shot at a school here is what is happening
1990's........................15
2000's........................15
8 years of the 2010's...27
Don't just blindly believe something just because it supports your side of the argument.
Stop letting children get shot just because your political party tells you nothing is wrong.
