It appears that it's CNN that is doing the stretch-the-context storyline, then they stop at a fact check of their own stretched headline...
Everytown Headline
Matrixed with several columns of what actually took place
Legend:
* Discharged Firearm: Shooter discharged firearm on school property *Injured 1+ Person: Shooter injured at least one person but did not kill anyone *Killed 1+ Person: Shooter killed at least one person *Attempted Suicide: Shooter attempted but did not complete suicide *Committed Suicide: Shooter committed suicide
CNN Headline:
Yes, the CNN 15 are "Newtown-Like"...all the rest seem to be some sort of "School Shootings..." as the Everytown Headline stated.
And, since you seem to want to equate in some equivalency "knives and playground equipment" to guns...I'll concede to you that there are a lot more band-aids dispensed for playground equipment encounters than for bullets.
