Don’t know if this is hyperbole, but, no. The theater shooting in Aurora was in 2012, years before that you had incidents like Columbine (1999), an Virginia Tech (2004). Aurora was when the democrats chocolate Jesus was in office, and probably when the mass media started counting every shooting in which there were more than two casualties as a mass shooting.
Columbine is on the other side of the metroplex from Aurora and that was two white suburban kids who hated everyone and wanted glory, no politics or money crime involved.
