Data. Click on all the school shootings and based on location and enrollment most happened in urban areas. Not saying there aren't any in rural schools. I'm saying the percentage is really low. In towns where the high school could have 500 kids I guarantee you most grew up around guns. People in the countryside communities are more aware of what a firearm is and most kids raised in a rural community have handled a gun. Walk around with a gun on your hip in the city. See what happens. Then go to a small town and do the same. Tell me where you'll find more Karen's. Go to a gun range and talk to people. ask around. Why do you think you don't see small rural communities protesting gun control? A small town. Don't you think a mayor and city councils would be able to easily pass an ordinance for gun control? How many small towns do you know are anti guns?
Here are two articles.
Article one Small Town passing pro gun ordinance
Second article. Noticed there's Connecticut "urban" gun-control coalition. It's not the Connecticut gun-control coalition. It's not the rural gun-control coalition. It's urban. In the second smallest state in the country why would it be called urban and not just gun control coalition?

Example of multiple armed citizens stopping a shooting. https://youtu.be/5IKbgO9qnLs One guy made the shot but I believe multiple people in the crowd had pulled guns to engage shooter.
Plenty of examples of kids defending their family.
