We don't, but it makes headlines, so it gets done. More kids die each year in boating accidents, but you don't hear about those on the news because politicians don't profit from those headlines.

658 people died in boating accidents in 2021, while about 1,600 teen and children were killed by guns in 2022. I didn't find a breakout for children killed at school.
