      Only shootings that have Wikipedia articles of their own are included in this list

      It doesn’t count unless there’s a Wikipedia page about it? Really?

        So to you it’s the same thing when a drug deal goes bad and people get shot, and when a kid goes and shoots up an elementary school? The motivation is clearly the same to you? Get real nobody with half a brain considers 95 percent of the shootings in the list of over 600 “mass shootings”

        Stay fearful my friends!

        Find me one of those “mass shootings” in the big list that’s not on the Wikipedia list where there’s just a shooter out trying to kill randoms that are unarmed.

          So the innocent people caught in the crossfire of a gang shooting or the bar fight that got out of control that keeps being mentioned here don’t count to you?

          If you end up dead for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, do you really care what the shooter’s motivation was?

            Americans have shown that they value their guns more than their personal safety, or the safety of their children. Sandy hook was the last stop and looks like nobody got off.
