No, this definition is using people dying. Clicking the link shows they have a different count for “shot and wounded”
There's only been 4 mass shootings in 2022

Gun Violence Archive have the best definition but imo, when thinkin of a mass shooting, the motive matters.
Yeah, I noticed and edited my post before you replied
simply using the word ONLY is trash.
If the goal is 0 in 365 days and we end up with 4 in 365. "Only" is apt.

| Mass Shooting | FOUR or more shot and/or killed in a single event [incident], at the same general time and location not including the shooter. |
That's the Gun Violence Archive definition.

Obviously that includes all illicit activities which I don't think should be counted

You seemed to be confused that your opinion matters and needs to be shared.If the goal is 0 in 365 days and we end up with 4 in 365. "Only" is apt.

Cross trolling the fukk out of HL again, but he has people posting and not lurking, so I’m fine with it. 
Do you think it should count as a mass shooting when people involved in illicit activity shoot at eachother and 4+ people are shot?
They only count incidents in which people died, and the attacks are "indiscriminate in nature," so for instance Uvalde, or even Pulse in Orlando probably wouldn't count. I don't trust that.

I'm not even trolling tho.
People seem to get really emotional if you even suggest something they don't agree with

4 innocent victims, yes, 4 people involved in the illicit activity/targeted individuals - no
mass shooting should be: shooting that takes place anywhere (public space or private property), 3/4+ "innocent"/uninvolved victims have been injured or killed, doesn't matter if shooter(s) is/are alive or dead, the victim body count is all that matters
