Yeah not so many shootings in Pakistan but loads of other multi person crimes. Its just their focus is religion while in America the kids want fame.

And I don't think there's any evidence to link bullying to school shootings. If anything the shooters are often bullies rather than bullied. Domestic violence or mental illness at home is a far more common issue. America definitely has more mental illness.

You can shoot up a school and be famous anywhere in the world it's not unique to America. There is zero percent doubt that something is indeed very unique about America to be leading by 1000000% in the number of school shootings. America is the top consumer of antidepressants. Maybe the antidepressants they prescribe to teens who can't get over the fact that their dad didn't buy them the new iPhone has something to do with it. Who knows.
