Because we have a gang problem. That's where you get almost all your mass shootings from, and the news pushes that like it'll happen to you.

If you don't hang out with gangs, you aren't going to get shot.

No dude. It's the guns. You just don't want to see it for what it is.

Guess they just need some more guns. That should solve it.

That is what the US has been doing for the last 20 years, making it easier for the law abiding to get and carry guns. Has gun crime decreased in any way? Or has it increased? Maybe if we want a different outcome, we need a different approach. Maybe more guns isn't the answer to preventing gun deaths.

So all the kids that get murdered in elementary schools or people killed while attending churches are part of gangs??? What the hell are you talking about?

Very rare.

The vast majority of "mass shootings" are inner city shootouts, in gun control paradise. That's not debatable.

Clearly it's not rare because almost every day there's another mass shooting in a grocery store, church, school, mall, or whatever else. This is a US problem and one that exists because of guns.

You've got two murders and a maybe, none of those even qualify as mass shootings due to the highly targeted nature. None are indiscriminate, and at least one of the two was almost certainly gang related, proving my point.

Exactly it is a problem but it's more like monthly than when weekly
