With the understanding that one death is too many, I question the definition of: “as defined by the Gun Violence Archive, which categorizes a mass shooting as an incident involving four or more victims shot, either wounded or killed, not including any suspected gunman.”
When we us an exaggeration of a number, in this case 4, to justify using the word “mass” I believe we do an injustice to our language. This kind of justification allows people to make comparisons between Uvalde which was a terrible murder spree, and 9/11 that is a true mass murder. In my mind these kinds of comparisons are for political purposes and are tearing our Country apart. MHO

There is nothing you can do about violence... It will always be used to settle disputes and there is little anyone can do to stop it... It's inertia... No one has the mass to stop the capstone of civilization... They would just be crushed by monstrous forces beyond their capacity... Despite the bravado these people may put on.. they can't win in the end because their goals and victory conditions are unattainable

Well stated Sarge! The media gives far too much hype to any gun event that fits the anti-gun narrative or just about anything that involves so-called progressive ideology. It is definitely polarizing and detrimental to society overall.

Yes, the media does the dirty work for our Progressive Marxist Democrats and Republicans while massive amounts of primarily innocent people are murdered around our Country because of these Marxist policies being established. We have a lot of useful idiots in our Country that's for sure.
