The Washington Post's  Database of School Shootings puts the impacts in gun violence in frightening terms. 

​The Washington Post has spent the past year determining how many children have been exposed to gun violence during school hours since the Columbine High massacre in 1999.

Beyond the dead and wounded, children who witness the violence or cower behind locked doors to hide from it can be profoundly traumatized.

The federal government does not track school shootings, so The Post pieced together its numbers from news articles, open-source databases, law enforcement reports and calls to schools and police departments.

Science is pretty important, but some studies and research is being silenced because it doesn't promote a particular agenda.  The Silencing Science Tracker tracks government attempts to restrict or prohibit scientific research, education or discussion since the November 2016 election.
