CLAIM: President Joe Biden reacted to the Allen, Texas, outlet mall attack by claiming “there have been roughly 200 mass shootings” in America thus far in 2023.
VERDICT: FALSE, as long as one adheres to the standard definition of a mass shooting as an incident in which four or more individuals were killed by one attacker in one incident.
Biden said, “American communities have suffered roughly 200 mass shootings already this year, according to leading counts.”

Jo Jo and his Dung Beetle Party have the record for the most mass shootings in 6 months and the largest body count in a year. Those ****ers would do anything to win an election. They gave us the dempanic and now they are giving us mass murders. Damn communist turd rollers. FJB.
Although it is, of course, a bald-faced lie, coming as it does from Joe Biden’s mouth, let’s just suppose for a moment that it’s true. 200 mass shootings this year.
How many of those were in GFZs, where guns were already banned? This first one already excludes the recent mall shooting in TX, as Simon Properties are GFZs.
How many were committed by those with pre-existing felony convictions, e.g. gang members, career criminals, and especially those already “under the supervision of the authorities”, e.g. on parole?
How many were committed by known criminal gang members, even if they’ve never been convicted of any felony?
How many were committed by illegal aliens, and especially by those who have been previously deported?
How many were committed by otherwise prohibited persons?
How many of these “mass shootings” were lawful, defensive uses?
Finally, how many were committed in deep Blue cities or states, with extremely strict gun control, but not technically GFZs, e.g. in MD, CA, IL, NY, NJ, CT?
Once all of the above are removed, the remaining total, if any, are the ONLY ONES that can ethically be used to justify the restriction of gun rights of the law-abiding - except, of course, for the pesky Second Amendment.
My guess is that once the above shootings are eliminated, there would be so few left that the draconian limits would be clearly seen as what they are, a depraved effort to disarm the general public for reasons other than what are stated.
Furthermore, only the depraved would include shootings in the categories above and give them as a reason to disarm the law-abiding.
That little biatch, Mayorkas, needs his ass fired and deported. The boy might have a worthless piece of paper saying he is a U.S. citizen but he sure as hell IS NOT an American and never will be.
Thank you very much, Ms. AntiFeminazi! Good to see you.
Keep talking Joe. Your words are apparently having the desired effect because you will NOT shut up.
What about the mass shootin’ with an assault SUV in Brownsville? Are AAA members responsible for that or the banks that lent the loan? What about the “roadside service” lobby? How do they play into this?
Chicago, Chicago, It’s a toddlin’ town.....
Just fire a shotgun into the air and you’ll be fine.
You wanna know how to divide and conquer? Just do this stuff that you all keep posting here.
It is all Red vs Blue and it is all about controlling you.
The Bee should do a truth check article on Biden.
The definition of mass shooting I’ve always seen is one whhere 4 or more people are injured, not killed. By that definition, it is true.
The count that many on the left have begun to watch is that of the Gun Violence Archive (GVA), which replaced the standard definition of a mass shooting with one that counts incidents in which there are “a minimum of four victims shot, either injured or killed, not including any shooter who may also have been killed or injured in the incident.”
Yeah, they want to use the GVA count, but they don't want you to look at the details. See here.
What a coincidence he mentions this.
Two mass murders in Texas and now this attempt. The democrats will kill as many people to get power.
There are no coincidences with the democrat party.
