Everyone that studies crimes for a living, you know, people with PhDs, who publish peer reviewed studids on mass shootings?
Precise definitions vary somewhat, but basically, a mass shooting is any instance where 4+ people are injured or killed by gunfire, in a single, temporaly and geographically constrained event.
Gas station robbery gone wrong? 3 people injured, one dead, by gunfire?
That’s a mass shooting.
Because a mass of people… got shot.
A mass shooting related to gang activity… is a gang related mass shooting.
It is a subset of the category ‘mass shooting’, not a completely different thing.
You csn take that definition and apply it backward 40 , 60 years, and you will still see a massive, massive rise in the number of mass shootings in the last 20 years, number of people injured or killed by gunfire in mass shootings.
Zoomers are about 3x more likely to personally know someone who was present at the scene of, injured or killed in a mass shooting than Boomers.
No, you’re wrong.
