Dont casualties and deaths mean the same thing?

Woohoo it was down from 30 in 2017....time to celebrate! Whoopee!!

We only lost 213 folks last year from mass shootings? I could've sworn it was double that figure.

CNN NYTIMES WASHINGTONPOST MSNBC CBSNEWS FOXNEWS realDonaldTrump these are not crazy wall jumper Mid Easterner's or Hispanics. It's gone grown domestic terrorist attacks. Mostly, on our children.

130,000 AMERICANS DIED OF OVERDOSE WITH DRUGS COMING IN FROM MEXICO!🤷🏻‍♀️♥️🇺🇸♥️

How many immigrants were involved ? Maybe none?

Mass shootings something corrupt military enjoy in an effort to take down America. jack my tweet history has been cleared by these criminals. Pls have ATT CricketNation tim_cook contact me about SIM code theft which allows them to control your twitter Jail rOy blunt

We have brought mass shootings to the world. What does that say about our tattered social fabric? Is economic inequality driving this brutality against each other? InequalityMatters guncontrol publichealth

That means thst they are not diung a good job

Lets think LOGICALLY on this. Gun Laws only effect law abiding families.Criminals dont follow law n get em no matter.. They can be 3d printed. Otherwise itd be POISON Its not the TOOLS irs the SOUL.If we all had guns or potential conceal- Less criminals would attempt stuff NRA

Thank you spinny spinnerton.

This is just failure of Administration 👎Even America is following divide and rule policy.. Which eventually back fired. Majority citizens are angry depressed and desperate. Make an Indian next President who waited fifteen years to get green card he will fix it all.

Guns.

Now do people killed by drunk drivers with multiple DUI'S

Now, to be fair, tell us how many active shooter casualties the EU had. If they follow historical norms, they had more than the US.

An active shooter is not a mass shooting. More fake news headlines by the mainstream media. The FBI doesn't even track mass shootings. A mass shooting is a shooting in which 3 or more people, excluding the gunman, are killed in a single event in the absence of another crime.

It's such a reductionist tally by an organization which admittedly, as of several years ago, could neither COUNT mass SHOOTINGS & killer cops it knew of, or get informed of ones known to occur, PUBLISHED in newspapers, because culprit&jurisdiction participation was optional.

Sounds like a weekend in Chicago.

Thank you Trump Crime Family and the NRA.

Tweet is different than article. Tweet says “mass shootings”. Article says “active shooter”. Which is it, you fool?

Most of them gang related. Newsflash criminals don’t obey laws!!!!

How many people died from stabbings how many people died from DUI how many people died from drugs how many people die from beatings

Don't leave out innocent church members shot. And what trump has said killed people like a 97 yr old lady in church the suspect was a trump supporter and said he did it because what trump said realDonaldTrump

^^^perfect case for why we need the 2A to defend ourselves and each other against such attacks. You’re reporting that we have a violent society, I don’t get the self neutering response of gun control advocates who see this same data and think “ok time to give up our protection!”

Is it just me or America is the only country that has lots of school shootings compared to the rest of the world

thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thoughts and prayers thought

And more people than that were killed in Chicago, Los Angeles and New York. And the kicker? That's just black on black homicides. Bring back our mental institutions and our Mental Health programs that would probably help with mass shootings. Or better yet more legal CHL's

Thoughts and prayers..

Mass Shootings Last 60 Years

And now America is one of the most dangerous country for journalist..... now there’s a first. Don’t forget to Thank Trump, you know how he whines when people don’t thank him.

GOP, based on those numbers from 2018, is it time to legislate now?

2019 Statistics - Despite being number one in gun ownership, United States is far from number one in gun deaths.

Thousand Oaks Ca was covered up by DeptVetAffairs with those families & that Marine's family denied answers they deserve. Media continues to ignore how the VA is denying pain and PTSD medications! This is a DEADLY combination! Wake up because POTUS has his head up his a$$😠

Texas biker gangs at Twin Peaks, no FBI investigation.

Can they just make gun control more strict like seriously America is the only country to have so many school shootings compared to the rest of the world

United States BELOW the world average in terms of the number of mass public shootings. Over the 18 years from 1998 to 2015, the US makes up less than 1.15% of the mass public shooters.

Or as Omar would say....”some people did something”.

After every one of those mass shootings, the GOP said it wasn’t the time to talk about GunReform. Is it time yet? How many more bodies have to drop?

AKA......Three months in Chicago.

Most, if not all, committed by white, male, US citizen, terrorists, who had easy access to guns. IStandWithIlhanOmar

The shootings happen because of the extreme anti-white hate speech and propaganda.

A mass shooting by FBI standards is any shooting where more than 4 people are indiscriminately shot at. So any club shooting, drive by, or random burst of gang violence is technically considered a mass shooting.

Only 4% of homicides are committed with rifles and that’s all rifles, not just assault rifles. Assault rifle bans are peanuts.

That’s no reason for me to lose my gun rights. Keep on and lose another election.

How many black on black murders in Chicago last month?

A lot of people doing a lot of somethings

We must be so proud as a nation. 🤦‍♂️

realDonaldTrump spent the last 2yrs making our immigration issue worse. He’s really bad at this. All he does is propose todo illegal stuff only tobe blocked by our Court System; Remember Trump said “Only he can fix it”? He meant “Only he can fk it all up”

How many of those were in gun-free zones?
