Student to student beef and one brings a gun to school to settle the score? Hopefully I read that correctly.

The last mass shooting in Nebraska was in June.

"the shooting was an isolated incident between two students."

IMO But it was a shooting inside a school. The intent may be isolated to one person, but the violence and fear is experienced by everyone in that building. Plus parents. Plus first responders.

Another traumatized community.

This is not a mass shooting.

You are right, it looks like a single 15 year old kid was brought to the hospital this time.
Mass shootings count physical injuries only.

You are right, PrairieWind. I understand your point.

IMHO I understand school shootings affect everyone in the building, emotionally and psychologically, even if they don't physically catch a bullet. IMHO any school shooting feels like a mass casualty event to me.

A school shooting eliminates Maslow's Heirarchy of anyone feeling safe in school.

I believe the shooter is in custody from what I read.

So everyone was stuck on lockdown for an hour while they searched for the shooter?

Terrifying.

Again, I wonder how the kid got the gun. Whatever kind it was.
