Not at all...
There's no clear definition on a mass shooting. What would you consider to be one? Does the motive matter?
That depends on how you define it. The OP shows how the numbers vary widely based on that.
I think EveryTown has the best definition of one:
Everytown defines a mass shooting as any incident in which four or more people are shot and killed, excluding the shooter.
By this definition, the United States experiences an average of 19 mass shootings every year, ranging from 15 in 2010 and in 2014 to a high of 24 in both 2011 and 2013. However, there exists no consensus on the definition of a mass shooting. Counts under other definitions range from a dozen per year to nearly one mass shooting every day depending on factors such as casualty thresholds or whether the mass shooting was in public or not.

That’s a dumb definition too. So it’s not a mass shooting if some shaky hand 17 yr old runs into a grocery store and shoots 23 people but only 2 die? We just not supposed to give AF because people were only injured, not killed?I think EveryTown has the best definition of one:

Clearly this thread is about defining what a mass shooting is. Nothing dishonest or trash about that.
You're right. I was reading something else on their site that I agreed with.
I don't like this definition either. You don't have to die for it to count.
