> Schools are adding pepper-spraying drones to help combat active shooters
Schools in the U.S.; this is what the U.S. are getting into.
Meanwhile, the majority of the civilized world solves this with gun control. Americans can't do gun control just because of fetishism for their obsolete Constitution.
Try to explain to Americans that their Constitution was written before the Industrial Revolution and cheap ubiquitous guns, during a war, when the overwhelming majority of the population was rural. Try to explain that when Americans try to do nation building (Japan, Iraq, Afghanistan) they choose political frameworks completely different from the American Constitution.
They won't accept it. They venerate their Constitution just as blindly as the Bible, another obsolete document.
Proud American here, I don't think your comment is particularly helpful. Better can be very subjective and a country is not going to better in every single aspect; the other country will certainly have some aspects where they will be "better".

I don't know what constitutes the civilized world for you, but in Western Europe kids lately get knifed, beaten to death or driven over by vehicles. Also Czech Republic or Switzerland also have a high gun ownership without the shootings.
