Apparently it was an “automatic” weapon and a “mass” shooting. But then aren't they all. I'm not so sure there really are more of these “mass” shootings. Just more labeled as such. Was it a mass shooting in Boston this weekend when 3 people were killed on a basketball court? How many have to be involved to be classified as mass anyway? Multiple yes, but mass sounds like it carries a certain crazed gunman connotation since it is usually only associated with nut jobs firing at crowds. This guy in College Station apparently was being served a warrant to evict. Not saying he's not nuts just not quite the same thing as a mass murderer.
