More American Kids at School Killed in 2018 Than US Military Service Members

Hannah Harrison carries roses during a prayer vigil following a deadly shooting at Santa Fe High School in Santa Fe, Texas, on Friday, May 18, 2018A new statistic has revealed that, to date in 2018, more children in US schools have been killed in shootings than the current total of military service member fatalities.
Friday's school shooting in Texas created a terrible new statistic; that more Americans have been killed at schools to date in 2018 than have died while on active US military duty over the same time period.
Using statistics compiled from US Defense Department statements, the total number of student — excluding even teachers, administrative and maintenance personnel — shooting deaths in schools exceeds all US military casualties in 2018 to date, according to a deep data dive by the Washington Post.
In comparison, in 2017 US service member fatalities were much higher than the number children killed in school shootings.
