ON FEBRUARY 14, 2018, A FORMER STUDENT AT MARJORY Stoneman Douglas, a large public high school in the wealthy Parkland suburb of Miami, entered Building 12, the freshman building of his alma mater, and shot to death 17 people, including 14 children. It would become one of the top 10 deadliest shootings in U.S. history. Within hours, the media—now disturbingly eficient at this sort of story (it was the sixth school shooting in just 2018)—had descended on the sleepy Everglades city.
