Organised criminals in all countries can get guns.
They are not the problem, it is all the slobbering half wits with delusions of Clint Eastwood or Hip Hop grandeur with guns that sees so many people killed in the United States of Anger.
Did you actually say that guns in the hands of criminals are not the problem?
Are you really THAT stupid?
Poorly written and cheerfully withdrawn.
Allow me to clarify.
Criminals get guns in any society. That is the for the police to deal with.
But only in America can any half wit, slack jawed, moronic hick with a small penis and mental issues as a consequence get one and go off half cocked on society, shooting up schools and their neighbours and so it goes in the blood stained United States of Anger.
Hey....shit stain...........you can't explain how it is that as more Americans own and carry guns, those half wits you hate, our gun murder rate went down 49%, our gun crime rate went down 75%, and our violent crime rate went down 72%, you dumb ass.
The problem in the United States is not gun ownership. Our problem is the democrat party, you slack jawed dumb ass........the democrat party and it's policies drive our gun crime rate, it is not normal Americans who own and carry guns for self defense.....you moronic half wit.
the democrat party creates laws that allow violent, repeat gun offenders to be released from jail and prison over and over again. It is democrat party prosecutors who drop gun charges against violent criminals over and over again, allowing them to be released on bail, and released from prison on short sentences.....and it is these criminals who are known and who have been arrested over and over again who are driving our gun crime rate in democrat party controlled cities......
It is democrat party judges who allow violent, repeat, known gun offenders to be released from jail over and over again on bail, now often on "No Cash," bail, and out of prison with light sentences even though they are known, violent, repeat offenders....
You are the slack jawed idiot who doesn't understand the issues involved in gun crime............you are the problem.
The evidence is clear, America has the most mass shootings because any half wit can get a gun than any other developed country.
America has more half wits in general too.
As of September 2024, California had the most mass shootings in the United States, with 26 total shootings since 1982.

You, and they, don't know what they are talking about......
Mother Jones collects mass public shooting data for every mass public shooting that happens in this country....in 2019 there were 10 mass public shootings in the country.....a country of over 330 million people
What you, and they don't understand, is that there is a difference between criminals shooting at each other, and actual mass public shootings...they are not the same thing.....
US mass shootings, 1982-2020: 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....
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...
