I graduated in 1997, in a rural town, and I can say that we’ve knives that caused some injuries and scares and while we did have a kid that brought his dad’s handgun to school and threatened people with it, didn’t shoot anyone thankfully. This type of shit was around even in the 90’s just not around the world and in the 24 hour news like it is now, remember we had Columbine just a few years after we graduated in 1999.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s been on a steady increase but cripes man, this crap is a “It was always burning since the world’s been turning” kind of a thing. I mean 32 in 1992, that’s not insignificant so let’s not pretend that all of this sunshine and roses until now.

Yeah, but they’ve gone from rare occurrences to multiple-times-a-day events now.
