US homes are now supposed to function as schools, and have always been where most US mass shootings happen anyway. The ongoing churn of US familicides, which will likely only increase, thus ARE school shootings, and point to limits in how we understand space and gun violence. https://twitter.com/RobertKlemko/status/1249716012599083010

Much as tons of US school shootings *start w/ acts of gun violence in homes,* theres an entire system of social reproduction at work here that is at once invested in hygienically preserving ideas of public vs private space while preserving basic hierarchies of human disposability

It is also empirically the case that for US children, homes have in fact long been where they are vastly MORE likely to die from gun violence than schools. At least as far as death by gunshot is concerned gunpower's doubling down on the home as private space intensifies that toll

Anyways I'm not trying to own RK here - what I would really, really like us to do though is reject received categories of space and place and think about different kinds of gun violence as in fact operating as a whole to reinforce a basic body count and set of prerogatives.
