This is something that seemed to die down during Trump...no pun intended...but why as soon as we get another democrat president we begin to see mass shooters again?...it happened under Clinton Obama and the anti 2nd amendment RINO Bush...makes me wonder if all of those stories about CIA mind control are true....
Lets face it...dems want to take guns away and need us to want that too...what better way than to create more random shootings....
It didn’t die down Scooter. You just want to believe it did.

Ok. What was the lie? The lists provided by the link? Those are based on crime reports aren’t they? I faked crime reports? Or did I fake the list?
That is the problem with radicals. Any information they don’t like is automatically denounced as a lie. Sadly. Neither side has an exclusive on this trait.
The lie is the Gun Violence Archive...
Notice they use the combination of words "Mass Shooting." This is to lie to uniformed Americans because when they see those two words, they subliminally add "Public," to the combination.
The GVA knows that Americans understand a "Mass Public Shooting," to be an individual walking into a public place and shooting innocent men, women and children.
The GVA, in order to get their number up....add gang shootings.....which is the lie.
Of the 10,235 gun murders in the U.S. in 2019, over 70-80% of the victims are criminals, murdered by other criminals. Of the remaining victims, the vast majority are friends and family of the criminals accidentally hit instead of the criminal they associate with. And these murders occur in tiny sections of democrat party controlled cities....
Americans understand that they have almost nothing to fear from regular criminal gun violence...as long as they don't associate with criminals and don't have violent criminals in their families, and as long as they stay out of gang controlled sections of democrat party controlled cities....
They do, however, fear mass public shootings because those are random, and target normal people in normal places. and they are made to seem more prevalent than they actually are by the democrat media covering them 24/7 when they happen.
For example, according to Mother Jones, the anti-gun, left wing news organization, there were ...

Mother Jones uses the actual FBI definition of a mass public shooting...
US mass shootings, 1982–2021: Data from Mother Jones’ investigation
Dating back to at least 2005, the FBI and leading criminologists essentially defined a mass shooting as a single attack in a public place in which four or more victims were killed. We adopted that baseline for fatalities when we gathered data in 2012 on three decades worth of cases.
-------
- Here is a description of the criteria we use:
- The perpetrator took the lives of at least four people. A 2008 FBI report identifies an individual as a mass murderer—versus a spree killer or a serial killer—if he kills four or more people in a single incident (not including himself), typically in a single location. (*In 2013, the US government’s fatality baseline was revised down to three; our database reflects this change beginning from Jan. 2013, as detailed above.)
- The killings were carried out by a lone shooter. (Except in the case of the Columbine massacre and the Westside Middle School killings, which involved two shooters.)
- The shootings occurred in a public place. (Except in the case of a party on private property in Crandon, Wisconsin, and another in Seattle, where crowds of strangers had gathered, essentially constituting a public crowd.)
- Crimes primarily related to gang activity or armed robbery are not included, nor are mass killings that took place in private homes (often stemming from domestic violence).
- Perpetrators who died or were wounded during the attack are not included in the victim tallies.
- We included a handful of cases also known as “spree killings“—cases in which the killings occurred in more than one location, but still over a short period of time, that otherwise fit the above criteria.
- ----------------------
Our research focused on indiscriminate rampages in public places resulting in four or more victims killed by the attacker. We exclude shootings stemming from more conventionally motivated crimes such as armed robbery or gang violence. (Or in which the perpetrators have not been identified.) Other news outlets and researchers have since published larger tallies that include a wide range of gun crimes in which four or more people have been either wounded or killed. While those larger datasets of multiple-victim shootings are useful for studying the broader problem of gun violence, our investigation provides an in-depth look at a distinct phenomenon—from the firearms used and mental health factors to the growing copycat problem. Tracking mass shootings is complex; we believe ours is the most useful approach for studying this specific phenomenon.

The actual number of mass shootings from Mother Jones.......
Here you go...the number of mass public shootings according to Mother Jones...rabid, anti gun, left wing news source.....not the NRA...
The list below comes from the old definition of 4 killed to make a shooting a mass shooting...if you now go to the link there are more than listed below...but that is because Mother Jones changed the list from the time I first posted it...and changed to obama's new standard of only 3 dead to make a mass shooting...
I have put obama's updated number in parenthesis..........
we will see....
