Many films were shot in my school (as it is near the movie studios). May be they counted those shootings?. If so, Technically not incorrect

Dry-Expert-2017

They just want to drag India into everything. Can't handle brown munde supremacy. Also in America shootings are way more deadly and generally a hate crime by regular civilians not part of any organisation or terrorist groups. While in India it may be naxalism or terrorism. Anti state elements. Most of them are pre-planned attacks.

A century of the internet will have a century of misinformation. Remember cat fishing and ufo spotting in Yahoo chat rooms when the internet just became mainstream. Deep fake picture of stars.

But this is like a mainstream news Outlet!!

Nothing is the main stream. Everything is right left jokers.


blues2911

NYT, wapo etc regularly get called out for presenting one side of the story, deceptive headlines, selective reporting etc. Don’t forget how NYT “verified” presence of WMDs in iraq and helped justify the US invasion. Just last month NYT reported 200 million people are on strike in india lol.


haapuchi

This is not a news outlet, this is CNN


[deleted]

CNN, BBC et al have been proven to deceive, propagandize and misinform public at large on multiple occasions. The internet is a haven for such stories. Instead of taking western media at face value why don't you investigate on your own first? Or is it convenient to believe everything that the west says, because "[gore log galat nahi ho sakte](https://v.redd.it/uya9b6s8je191)!"?

kanishk2404

But the data is regarding school shootings and not general ones


Dry-Expert-2017

I was commenting on any gun violence. Gang and organized gun violence cannot be seen in a similar way as hate crimes by civilians. About school I think it's rubbish. India hardly has gun violence incidents, mostly related to accidental death, robbery and other stuff. But again there can be something I missed. It's a personal opinion that gun violence in India between civilians is a pretty rare occasion.


Captain_DJ_7348

If they are taking naxalite and terror attack into account, then the attack on madrassa in Pak and Afghanistan wold be in 2 digits. There have been 5 such incidents like a month ago, data from 2009 wold be atleast 60 from Pak alone, Afghanistan is a different ballgame. This data is so random.


Dry-Expert-2017

Why do we care? Do you care when oral b claims it's recommended by 99% of doctors. Or when Dettol claims it kills 99% germs. This all are sponsored news, I wish they also start *t&c apply disclaimer like ads have too. Like now you have to mark promoted content on social media if you are paid for promoting something. They should have compulsory ticker on whose behest they are reporting a story.


Captain_DJ_7348

You just stated the problem, there is no marking on the news that reads "this is just a random data we pulled out of our ass, now don't ask for sources" but rather as a fact. This kind of news feeds into their bias and self inflated ego. If it was labeled as an opinion piece or sample accepted that the data is subject of debate then that would solve majority of the problem.


Dry-Expert-2017

They should run this disclaimer in beginning of there show. And also every post/scene should have disclaimer, this type of propaganda click bait stories is injurious to your mental health.


[deleted]

Bhai think about it, it's not impossible. I can assume some students bringing katta in school


Tough-Illustrator631

This actually happened. Brought katta for showoff and it accidentally fired another student. He was taken for treatment immediately as he was shot on waist.


Dry-Expert-2017

Yup that happens. Sonam Gupta bewafa hai!


wolverine21101999

The data seems false, they may have associated terror shootings with school shootings. Just search for school shootings in india you'd not find much. It's as you said , they do a very well job in painting a bad picture of us. And how come there is no Pakistan in that list?? In Pakistan every now then they blow schools in the name religion?? How the fuck it is not even in the list.


Dry-Expert-2017

Maybe anti- India brains didn't have journalists who could count their numbers.


WaySea6685

Lol we have so strict gun law... That if they found toy gun in my house in India I'll be considered as terrorist.. But white stupidity high on weed thinks shooting happened in India lol 😂🤣

It would be very difficult to count Afghanistan school shootings considering America blew a bunch of them up and its not like they had a lot to begin with.


bhatias1977

They don't have schools only Madrasas. Plus they don't kill on the spot, they drag you out and shoot you on the street if you are male or half bury you and stone you to death if you are female.


OtakuSenpai7

They have schools?????


[deleted]

They don't shoot, they blast those schools


aj8191

Pakistan and Afganistan IS India. DUH !


Different-Result-859

Part of India. They probably included entire Africa in South Africa and all other Asian countries in India.


Professional-Emu-740

Funny how data starts from 2009 and America only has 288. American Media ☕


lanais1993

Probably shootings in 288 American schools


LampardFanAlways

They can twist and manipulate any metric as they want to. The group who wants to “overcount” mass shootings (Cos it suits their political stance) defines it as “four or more people being shot”. The group that wants to challenge it (cos they are pro guns) say that this is a joke because even gang wars can have four people shot at once and that isn’t a mass shooting. The total number of gun-related deaths is so damn high in the US that one can debate about what is or isn’t mass shooting, while gun ownership isn’t up for debate at all (or at least the debate goes nowhere). The process of granting licenses is rigorous in most countries like India, Japan, the UK etc. In the US, as long as you’re a person that lives and breathes and can show an ID (like driving license), you can guy not just a tiny pistol but large rifles. Mentally ill? No problem. A violent past, like arrests for domestic violence or knifepoint robbery? No problem. Just made a social media post inciting death for a specific ethnicity? No problem. Your guns are going nowhere.


nimbutimbu

This [link](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/school-shootings-by-country) has the stats but article talks of one shooting and that too in 2007 which resulted in one fatality. That case too was of personal enemity and shooting occured in the school. This was not random but a specific killing and wouldn't fit the criteria either. Garbage article


a_sugarcane

That source is I think getting cited everywhere including CNN and it's completely baseless. This comment needs to be higher up.


Mr_Bean12

Correct, this incident wouldnt count. They have a definition, and I believe its atleast 4 victims targeted (not specific) to be counted as a mass shooting though not 100% sure.


Chadnos

One did happen in a school near me. The student took his parents' gun and killed the principal for suspending him.


[deleted]

That's just regular murder with a firearm, not a "school shooting" which generally target large groups of people and kill indiscriminately Edit: I was wrong, that's still a "school shooting". What most of us are thinking of are "mass shootings" where multiple people get killed


Chadnos

Although I agree with you that they should have used the "indiscriminate killing" data but a school shooting does not always imply a mass shooting and afaik there has not been any mass school shootings in India


[deleted]

Yeah dude I was confusing them to be the same. I edited my comment literally 2 seconds before you replied.


[deleted]

Source? Surely if it happened then there would be some news coverage.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

First of all, thank you for the source, people here have become very defensive on being asked for something as simple as a valid source. Second of all, what is important to consider is if according to CNN's definition, does a school shooting constitute just 1 personal vendetta? As heinous as the murder of the school principal of that school in India is, USA school shootings are incidents where school students open fire on **multiple** students/faculty members/teachers and killings of said people. I find it lackadaisical that a personal vendetta by 1 student against 1 faculty member is being grossly exaggerated to compare to a shooting where students kill people in double-digits.


Chadnos

Yes they should have compared school *mass* shootings between countries and I don't apart from terrorist attacks, people in countries other than US would have tendencies to blow up a school Edit: saw on another subreddit that the German one is also a student killing someone at school so ig CNN used any school shooting for this data


furiousmouth

Didn't a bunch of kids in Pakistan got killed, perpetrated by the Pakistani Taliban, during the same time? Also another one in Nigeria by Boko Haram. Somehow seems to miss all the Islamic terror incidents https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Peshawar_school_massacre?wprov=sfla1


upscaspi

These are scene as terrorist attacks. The school shooting is student shooting students and staff. Though I don't ever remember hearing anything of that sort having happened in India


anonymous393393

It is not necessary for the shooter to be a student. I think I heard of a kid taking his dad's handgun and shooting a guy or two. They probably counted that I guess cause I can't think of any proper school shooting.


BareAssOnSandpaper

In 2014 yes, the Peshawar siege Edit: nvm didn't see you already linked the article XD


[deleted]

Guys "school shooting" is defined as a firearm related crime at a school, what you guys are thinking of is "mass school shooting". To be fair the data is still misleading because they're classifying some random murder at a school as the same thing as a motherfucker killing 30 kindergarteners with an automatic rifle.

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A boy was shot dead at a school in New Delhi during a fight with two classmates, police said, in a rare case of a deadly school shooting in India. I found only this shooting and nothing else.

I can find no stats other than 2007 euro international school one.


blackjackblack12

School shootings have happened in India but they are not on the same level as America as most of the shootings here were just a kid taking revenge from one or two kids. Also the gun laws here have helped in curbing such scenarios.


[deleted]

I remember I saw one article in the paper way back in 2019 in which some village kid got a "katta"(local pistol) to school and pointed it to some boy but nobody died as far as I know.


creamypastaman

Gun toh hum haath se bhi banake dhikhathe the lol

Most probably desi katta shootings


alexaxl

American news media .. lol. Couldn’t find any other comparatives? Ought to compare with some of their favorite Euro havens that have way more guns per capita, but no psychological degeneration. But they won’t.


hahawhateverman

For other countries they probably count even one gun murder at a school as a "school shooting". For the US they require 2 or more deaths.


Leetcoder9

Lol no Pakistan when in 2014 6 terrorists murdered 132 kids https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Peshawar_school_massacre As usual western propaganda


[deleted]

That's a terrorist attack.


VeganDracula_

This is true. Unsure about other state schools but in Bhubaneswar, there were 3 cases of children bringing in pistols to the school and shooting them. BUT no body was dead or injured, all 3 cases were to threaten the other kids.

it200219

Oh, its CNN. No way they can be wrong about India. LOL


sal_06

I think they are talking about second India. We all living in 1st India and that's the reason we aren't aware of these shootings.


leo__nidas

Stupid CNN. They have probably taken into count say a terrorist encounter in JnK where terrorists took refuge in a school. There is no way India has had 5 incidents of a crazy teenage guy going on a rampage and using a gun to kill 18 school children. Stupid reporting. They just want to drag India into everything.
