I took St Louis's homicide rate at 64.5 per 100,000 and scaled that to 77 million K-12 and college students in the US.

The most prolific school shooter (32 deaths), an Asian named Seung-Hui Cho, would have to repeat his feat 4 times a day, every day, to match St Louis's death rate.
 
Guns are quite the problem aren't they?
