The former teacher who was shot by her 6-year-old student in a Virginia classroom said she still worries about the other children who saw it happen.

A year after she was shot by her 6-year-old student in a Virginia classroom, former teacher Abby Zwerner said she still worries about the other children who saw it happen, and wonders how they’re faring.

Wounded by a bullet that struck her hand and chest and punctured a lung, Zwerner rushed the other first-graders into the hallway before she collapsed in the elementary school’s office.

“I hope that they are enjoying school, enjoying their second-grade year,” Zwerner, 26, told The Virginian-Pilot newspaper. “I hope that they’re still kind to their classmates, kind to teachers. I hope that they still have happiness, and that their happiness wasn’t completely stripped away.”

    What data are you using to back this claim? Most school shooters seem to come from middle class to rather affluent families. How do you guys manage to pivot every thing to class warfare?

    I was walking down the street and I stubbed my toe: “Ow how can the proletariat suffer the injustice of tripping over uneven sidewalks while the rich continue to exploit us!”

    This is like a meme level comment at this point.

    Edit: to everyone downvoting: Prove me wrong. Give me the data. Show me that income or class had a considerable impact on these active school shooters.

      The closer we get to the root of the problem, the more people we’ll find that contribute to it and the fewer we’ll find that are willing to acknowledge it.

      I’m sorry you’re too innocent or delusional to believe that money doesn’t impact nearly every aspect of our lives.

        You willfully neglected the whole point of my comment. Show us the data that school shooters are influenced by income or class warfare? Not even Marx would stoop as low as you guys do to frame every. Single. Issue. Through. One. Single. Lens.

            Because you don’t have an argument. All you have is “class warfare”. You don’t have concrete paths to solutions. Just virtue signaling. That’s it. That’s all you got.

                Give me something more than “the class warfare of the burgeosie is indicative of the increased prevalence of school shootings”. Im always open to changing my beliefs
