#1 - We live in a very large country, so there are usually going to be multiple incidents of any type of crime on any particular day.
#2 - Sometimes, when a crime gets a lot of media attention, it produces copycats.

I can see the copycat thing definitely.
My point is.. these shootings SEEM to be coordinated.. happening all at once.. or within hours of one another.

3. 24/7 news coverage needs something to report and wants attention - ratings - no matter how statistically insignificant the incident may be. “If it bleeds it leads”
4. Media shares an agenda with the Progressives - Anything to manipulate public opinion against firearms and their owners goes to the top of the pile.

Europe is about 3 million sq. miles. The US is about 9 million sq. miles. So you can basically put three Europe's in the US. France is the size of Texas. Germany about Montana. Greece the size of Alabama.
Australia is about the same size as the US - but here's a good comparison.

#3 - It now fits the leftist media agenda to report as many of these events as they possibly can.
