    Good to hear that more rightists are being killed by firearms.

    Most mass shootings are in Trump supporting red states because rightists
    are bloodthirsty savages who love killing each other. Mass shootings of
    Trump voters has been called his greatest achievement.




    This is a list of mass shootings that took place in the United States in
    2024. Mass shootings are incidents in which several people are injured or killed due to firearm-related violence, specifically for the purposes of
    this article, a total of four or more victims. As of February 29, a total
    of 159 people have been killed and 256 people have been wounded in 83 shootings. Definitions

    Several different inclusion criteria are used; there is no
    generally-accepted definition.[2][3] Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit
    research group that tracks shootings and their characteristics in the
    United States, defines a mass shooting as an incident in which four or
    more people, excluding the perpetrator(s), are shot in one location at
    roughly the same time.[4] The Congressional Research Service provides a definition of four or more killed.[5][6] The Washington Post and Mother
    Jones use similar definitions, with the latter acknowledging that their definition "is a conservative measure of the problem", as many shootings
    with fewer fatalities occur.[7][8] The crowdsourced Mass Shooting Tracker project applies the most expansive definition: four or more shot in any incident, including the perpetrator.[9][10]

    A 2019 study of mass shootings published in the journal Injury
    Epidemiology recommended developing "a standard definition that considers
    both fatalities and nonfatalities to most appropriately convey the burden
    of mass shootings on gun violence."[11] The authors of the study further suggested that "the definition of mass shooting should be four or more
    people, excluding the shooter, who are shot in a single event regardless
    of the motive, setting or number of deaths."[12]

    Definitions generally exclude consideration of the number of persons
    targeted with lethal intent, perhaps with degraded accuracy from a greater distance, who escape injury from bullets or bullet spall, regardless of
    injury sustained while evading live gunfire, or medical complications
    resulting from those injuries (such as infection, concussion, stroke, or
    PTSD) further down the road. Definitions of the term "mass shooting" Organization(s) Definition Incidents on list that fit criteria Mass
    Shooting Tracker Four or more persons shot in one incident, at one location, at roughly the same time.[10] 70 Gun Violence Archive

    Vox
    Four or more shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrators, at one location, at roughly the same time.[13][14] 19 Stanford University MSA
    Data Project Three or more persons shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at one location, at roughly the same time. Excluded are shootings associated with organized crime, gangs or drug wars.[15] 4–16[n 1] ABC News Four or more shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrators, at one location, at roughly the same time. 2 Mother Jones
    Three or more shot and killed in one incident at a public place, excluding the perpetrators. This list excludes all shootings the
    organization considers to be "conventionally motivated" such as all gang violence and armed robberies.[8] 0 The Washington Post Four or
    more shot
    and killed in one incident at a public place, excluding the
    perpetrators.[7] 0 Congressional Research Service Four or more shot and
    killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrators, at a public place, excluding gang-related killings and those done with a profit-motive.[16]
    0

    Only incidents considered mass shootings by at least two of the above
    sources are listed below. Many incidents involving organized crime and
    gang violence are included.

    All definitions can be exceeded with a single shotgun blast into a target cluster at short range. Mass shootings do not require multiple gunshots.

    For statistical purposes, armed accomplices are likely to be classified as perpetrators, even if later analysis determines that the accomplice never discharged a firearm. Bystanders struck by bullets fired in self defense
    by another bystander would potentially be classified as victims of a mass shooting, while a bystander firing in self defense who injures or kills
    another bystander would almost certainly not be classified as a
    perpetrator. The classification of a bystander struck by police while attempting to take out a believed perpetrator falls into a gray zone. List
