Interesting chart... Things exploded when the assault weapon ban expired, but 2005 was also the start of social media... im not saying its wrong or setting my position on either side of the argument....but a lot of these mass shooting stats I seen tend to be self serving. Pro gun, theyll find a way to spin it....anti-gun, theyll find a way to spin it. I think 3 people getting shot in one instance is considered a mass shooting. So a lot of scenarios we connect with "mass shooting" arent necessarily what a mass shooting is when it pops in our head.

Here are my questions if you have the answers. I can attempt to find the answers but thought you might already know. I feel like I've already been down this road after the Stoneman Douglas shooting but failed to retain the information.
-Is that data based on injuries or deaths? Deaths. -When did mass shopping criteria/definition change and how did it change? They define it as multiple deaths, indiscriminate (shooter didn't know the people they were killing), and in a public place. -How many were handgun related? Probably a bunch, but remember we aren't counting Chicago crime, because most of those are not indescriminant. -Are gang related shooting in this data? No, see above. -How many deaths by rifle are there compared to other weapons? Data doesn't say.

I wasnt there, I have never been shot at and never put in position to shoot somebody, I dont know how I would respond but I hope I would respond in a way I could look at myself in the mirror the next morning. Thanks to the BP officer who brought it to an end. Hopefully the ranks of LEO have alot more like him. Very well said.

Thanks to the BP officer who brought it to an end. Hopefully the ranks of LEO have alot more like him. I was 15 the first time I was shot at . The first bullet hit a parked car less than 2 feet from my head . At first I didn't recognize the sounds , the second bullet hit directly in front of my foot and made that undeniable ricochet sound . There was 6 or 7 of us in the area . We were being shot at by a kid that one of my " friends " like to bully because the kid was a deaf mute . You wanna talk about adrenaline , holy cow , I ran so fast into the closest house -- my hear was beating outa my chest . The police came quickly and arrested the kid on scene and we never saw him again . The courage it must take to " go in " to a gun fight like Uvalde ---must be insane . 100% guarantee I couldn't do it unless my child or grandchild was in that school . I hope the man that shot and killed this POS is at the next Trump rally --- held up as the hero he is .

Considering the MSM NEVER gets a story correct first time around and always has a slant to the left, save your accusations until the facts comes out. Those cops will live with the fact those children are dead and they couldn’t or didn’t save them. Give the cops some slack until facts are available. Hug your kiddos everyday.

Daniel Defense needs to be shut down
Why? What did they do to cause this?

(sarcasm) Good Lord Man His first comment I’d probably agree with, second one is beyond dumb but typical and the third is right to a certain extent but just not at school where they are suppose to be locked at all times.
