Uh, what. Were there fatalities yesterday? I hadn’t heard but, did we change the daffynition of mass shootings. I thought it was three or more fatalities. Not that we want any but just wondering.

That might be mass MURDER.

Mass shooting just that....people shot. Not necessarily dead.

Mass murder/mass killing....people dead not necessarily by gun but frequently by gun. The media plays games with these terms in order the gaslight the population.

Miraculously no one was seriously hurt and all the policemen are home and well.

The feds define “mass murder” as being four or more dead excluding the perp(s) from a single event. Doesn’t matter the method of the murders.
