There have been 273 mass shootings in the US so far in 2017 — here's the full list

The death toll continues to rise on Monday in Las Vegas, Nevada, where a gunman killed at least 59 people and injured at least 527 others at a country music festival on Sunday night.

It was the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history.

The incident marked the 273rd mass shooting in 2017, according to the nonprofit Gun Violence Archive, which tracks shootings in the US. To put this into perspective, we are 275 days into the year, which means the US has had nearly as many mass shootings as days in 2017.

Unbelievable.


What demographic criteria is being used? What I mean is, how many of the shootings that comprise the list were gang related or were the result of another crime being committed?


All of them except for 6 for last year........that is the number of actual mass public shootings according to the Mother Jones mass shooting data going back to 1981.......and Mother Jones is an anti-gun, left wing source.....the Gun violence Archive lists every shooting, including gang shootings at parties and dice games...which the FBI does not classify as mass public shootings.

Groupings like this are essentially applying a "one size fits none" approach to counting mass shootings. I would like to give hoplophobes the benefit of the doubt and think that they are just being lazy, but I already know better.

Two hundred different genders, but only one criterium for mass shootings. Makes perfect sense ...

And here is what we need know, since you are so deep into the statistics----------->

How many of those weapons were legal, and how many were wielded by the people they were registered to?

We know the clown in Vegas was the owner of the weapons. He also altered them, which is illegal. On another thread on here, it is claimed he was a registered Democrat, but I can neither confirm nor deny the accuracy of that claim at this time.

And so, the point of this question is-------------> IF the biggest % of the mass shootings (or any shootings for that matter) were done by people that registered the fire arm, then you have made your case, and that should be the crux of your debate point, and you should NEVER move off of it!

On the other hand, if most of the shootings were done by ILLEGAL firearms, then your case has no merit whatsoever, unless of course your intent is to overturn the 2nd amendment. And if that is your intent, then tell us how you intend to strip people who already ignore the law, to turn in their ILLEGAL firearms, which they already have illegally, and do not care!

This chart says even more. Much more.

1,516 mass shootings in 1,735 days: America's gun crisis – in one chart

Wow. That chart really puts things in perspective.

For gibbering, Cyclopean numbskulls, perhaps.

Derp! Why's that, dipshit? Because the harsh real world FACTS don't jive with your pro-gun agenda?

Nope. Because real-world facts are non-existent in your pitiful presentation.

Gun lickers won't want any of these weapons controlled, lord knows we wouldn't want to keep 30 people from shooting off automatic weapons at a range, it would be monumental disruption of fun! And so there will be a 'next time, and another after that...', Christmas shopping season is coming up. Or New Years, or this time next year. But it will come. And now that the fully auto machine gun genie is out of the bottle the frequency of these types of mass slaughters will get worse, as will the number of dead.

All because a handful of wannabes are scared of their own shadow. And to cover their abject fear they have glommed onto the fake idea of 'pertecting 'ar raiwwghts from th' gubmint jes' like in th' olden days'.

Arm every person with a fully auto AK-47 and they last two days against our military. The days of citizens defending their rights against their own government with rifles ended 130 years ago. But the self delusion of today's gun carrier keeps the myth alive in their heads. And that is all they know or want to know. The reality of the situation is far too scary for them.
 
thanks , plus i think that rifles are banned in France but i think their death toll by rifles and guns is over that number . Think that the French ' WIN ' as they had 139 deaths at a 'little girl' music concert of some type didn't they Sytfe
What's the murder rate in France?
What's the murder rate in Chicago?
Super high. Over 400 million guns in the country, you know.

Where I live is literally awash in privately owned firearms. I recall there was a murder here about twelve years ago ...

Actually, some put the number closer to 600 million......and our gun murder rate went down 49%...from the 1990s to 2015......
 
Conceding what point, troll? It would be great if you could at least try to be coherent. Instead of drooling all over your keyboard and hitting "post reply," work on actually making a post that makes sense.
If you'd stop bad-touching yourself over the thought of more dead bodies, you might actually see that your source is bullshit and your OP is pointless.

Try conceding that and engaging in some intellectual honesty with what little intellect you have, dipshit.

My "source" is bullshit, gimp? How so, moron? Take your thumb out of your ass, wipe off your chin, and prove how the stats are "bullshit." Oh, you can't do that because you're a fucking moron?

Do you kiss your mom with that mouth?

How many people died in car accidents....35,161.......

Have an adult read you the entire thread. It has been pointed out already.

I'm beginning to think you're actually not just being intellectually dishonest and are actually that sto0pid.

Exactly as I thought. Go back to chewing on your crayons, drooling retard. That's what you're best at.

You really should post within the rules.

Less. But they don't have 11 million illegal third world immigrants either. Get them up to that number and their murder rate will be the same as ours.

The really funny part is that those on the Left have convinced themselves that US Armed Forces would support THEM in a domestic dust-up.

Essentially that a well-run guerrilla campaign can hold off the world's strongest armies. It has been done many times just in the last century.
