holy fuck the copium here is pathetic. is this honestly what people tell themselves in order to feel ok about gun violence?
“of those remaining” “take out the gang related shootings” like holy fuck you realize this is an epidemic right? bro if I’m breaking down the different mass shootings into tiers that’s a fuckin problem. 1 mass shooting, regardless of your arbitrary criteria for what it takes to actually qualify as one that matters is too many. there’s no other argument to make there.
the discussion isn’t about what you tell yourself to feel safe. it’s about the perception other countries have looking at it. the mentality you’re displaying is just contributing to it: you’re all fucking nuts lol.
Now filter that by suicide and crime/gang related, and you will realize that the type of Maas shootings the public concerns itself about (school shootings, mall shootings etc) are a very small portion of gun violence and not as common as the media portrays them.
That measurement is ANY instance where 3 or more people are killed or injured, the motivation or background is completely removed from the data.
All if the data is way more nuanced than you are willing to admit. You are very unlikely to get shot going about your daily life in america, or visiting. Just because the media hypes it up doesn’t mean Americans fear for their lives everyday. You would be way more likely to get shot in Brazil, Guatemala, Mexico, Columbia, or by suicide by firearm in Canada, Australia or Germany
he’s not wrong though. like, the mass shooting yesterday was something like the 340th so far this year? the place is fucking nuts

hmmm so what, only like 20 then? you’re right, that’s absolutely an acceptable amount of mass shootings in the first half of the year.
totally normal and something every country experiences. my bad.
