The Reason Why High School Soccer is More Dangerous Than The High School Shooting Team

Concussions.


Frankly, I would love to see the injury ratio between people playing competitive soccer vs. people involved in competitive shooting. I would especially love to see that stats at the high school level.


For while soccer and other pounding competitive sports are encouraged, injuries are rampant. But while competitive shooting is incredibly safe, it is demonized at middle and high schools.

For no reason other than political correctness, and irrational fear.


The best line I've ever seen on a sweatshirt? "My daughter participates in an Olympic sport that she can't talk about at school."
