minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink29•11 months agoJust because they don’t report shootings under ten kills anymore does not mean they don’t happen. But mass shootings, i.e. incidents where four or more people are killed) are still daily occurances in the US.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•11 months agoThat definition is so ridiculous. Shoot 100 without killing a single one? That wasn’t a mass shooting.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•11 months agoI would say that’s a mass shooting, just not a mass killing
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•11 months agoYeah, but for media and the US government it isn’t 🤷
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink0•11 months agoIt also doesn’t happen. Because guns are so good at killing so easily. They should all be banned.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•11 months agoNow that would be newsworthy for being the most inept American gun owner.
