“A Vancouver man shot and killed his wife, two adult daughters and adult brother before turning the gun on himself . . . .”

Nobody seems to care when blacks kill each other.
It is only news when some white idiot does stupid.
What is wrong with that picture?

You would be wrong.

I have done a little research on the 38 mass shootings that have happened in 2023.

17 were domestic. I make no reference to the races of the shooter or the victims in these cases, suffice to say most were white males age 35 plus. 10 of these shooters killed themselves and one was killed by police.

1 gang related killing that took six lives

4 incidents I can best describe as mental illness (I suspect most of the incidents involve mental illness, but these 4 have it as the only discernable factor) They were two 52 year old males, one 72 year old male and one 18 year old male. Two shooter killed themselves.

4 were neighbor disputes with shooters ranging from 21 to 40. The 21 year old killed himself

2 are party related. Both involved multiple male shooters.

3 are “random” including the Lewiston, Maine incident, but more likely mental illness. Robert Card killed himself

1 robbery in Dallas Texas, 4 victims, two suspects, male and female (she is one of two female suspects on the list).

1 school shooting. Police killed the 28 year old female trans person.

2 unknown motive, 1 case as best as I can tell, no suspect has been identified, The other was arson and the suspect was killed before capture. No articles list a motive.

1 case of “white supremacy” Police killed the suspect.

2 cases of Workplace shootings, one at a mushroom farm and the other by a bank employee. Police killed the bank employee.

All other cases the suspect were apprehended alive or are unknown.

4 Police terminated the shooter
14 shooters terminated themselves.

And what portion of these “mass shootings” took place in an allegedly “gun-free zone”, in venues where the actual right to possess and carry sidearms is highly restricted or forbidden?

As you can see from my research, most were domestic case that took place in their own home.

Interestingly, in doing my research I found articles with wildly disparate numbers of mass shootings including one that claimed there had been 183 this year city the Washington Post which has their own database.

This appears to be comprehensive source of info going back several years. It does not include non gun deaths.
