Police on the scene of "active multiple shooting" at Buffalo supermarket, 9 people shot : Multiple people are injured & 'several dead'

[surada]

And?

Oh, you are pointing out that the extreme gun control laws in New York didn't work........

Nope. Just commenting on the age of the killer. Why do you think this happens so often in the US?

[August West]

Actually, as Andrew Klavan, pointed out......or was it Ben Shapiro...........it isn't 14% of the population. Young Black males make up about 7% of the population...they commit over 50% of all murder in the U.S.....

55% of London`s 8 million residents are non-whites. They have drugs, gangs and poverty but they don`t shoot each other. It`s the guns.

 

[surada]

Yep....

There are over 330 million Americans in the U.S......

In 2021, 6 Americans committed mass public shootings killing a total of 43 people....

the rarest of rare events....

Define "so often."

We have 330 million people in this country.....

In 2021 it happened 6 times....6 individuals out of 330 million.......how does that qualify as "so often?"

Total killed 43.....

Deer kill 200 people every year.

Lawn mowers kill between 90-100 people

ladders kill 300 people....

Knives are used to kill over 1,500 people every year.....

So again, how do you define "so often?"

US mass shootings, 1982–2022: Data from Mother Jones’ investigation

Dating back to at least 2005, the FBI and leading criminologists essentially defined a mass shooting as a single attack in a public place in which four or more victims were killed. We adopted that baseline for fatalities when we gathered data in 2012 on three decades worth of cases.
-------

• Here is a description of the criteria we use:
  
  • The perpetrator took the lives of at least four people. A 2008 FBI report identifies an individual as a mass murderer—versus a spree killer or a serial killer—if he kills four or more people in a single incident (not including himself), typically in a single location. (*In 2013, the US government’s fatality baseline was revised down to three; our database reflects this change beginning from Jan. 2013, as detailed above.)
  • The killings were carried out by a lone shooter. (Except in the case of the Columbine massacre and the Westside Middle School killings, which involved two shooters.)
  • The shootings occurred in a public place. (Except in the case of a party on private property in Crandon, Wisconsin, and another in Seattle, where crowds of strangers had gathered, essentially constituting a public crowd.) Crimes primarily related to gang activity or armed robbery are not included, nor are mass killings that took place in private homes (often stemming from domestic violence).
  • Perpetrators who died or were wounded during the attack are not included in the victim tallies.
  • We included a handful of cases also known as “spree killings“—cases in which the killings occurred in more than one location, but still over a short period of time, that otherwise fit the above criteria.
  ----------------------

Our research focused on indiscriminate rampages in public places resulting in four or more victims killed by the attacker. We exclude shootings stemming from more conventionally motivated crimes such as armed robbery or gang violence. (Or in which the perpetrators have not been identified.) Other news outlets and researchers have since published larger tallies that include a wide range of gun crimes in which four or more people have been either wounded or killed. While those larger datasets of multiple-victim shootings are useful for studying the broader problem of gun violence, our investigation provides an in-depth look at a distinct phenomenon—from the firearms used and mental health factors to the growing copycat problem. Tracking mass shootings is complex; we believe ours is the most useful approach for studying this specific phenomenon.

They shoot each other ( not at Brazil
Levels , but higher than Japan levels ...

 

[2aguy]

55% of London`s 8 million residents are non-whites. They have drugs, gangs and poverty but they don`t shoot each other. It`s the guns.

No...it is the culture.......you will see more violence as we go forward....the welfare state in Britain has finally destroyed the British family......

Britain had low gun murder rates before they banned guns, and have had low gun murder rates after they banned guns....so "science," shows that the factor isn't guns......

The British had 1 mass public shooting about every 10 years...they just had a mass public shooting......they are still on course.......

And the British police have already stated they can't stop the flood of illegal guns into Britain.....

Police struggle to stop flood of firearms into UK


Police and border officials are struggling to stop a rising supply of illegal firearms being smuggled into Britain, a senior police chief has warned.

Chief constable Andy Cooke, the national police lead for serious and organised crime, said law enforcement had seen an increased supply of guns over the past year, and feared that it would continue in 2019

The Guardian has learned that the situation is so serious that the National Crime Agency has taken the rare step of using its legal powers to direct every single police force to step up the fight against illegal guns.

The NCA has used tasking powers to direct greater intelligence about firearms to be gathered by all 43 forces in England and Wales.

Another senior law enforcement official said that “new and clean” weapons were now being used in the majority of shootings, as opposed to guns once being so difficult to obtain that they would be “rented out” to be used in multiple crimes.

Cooke, the Merseyside chief constable, told the Guardian: “We in law enforcement expect the rise in new firearms to continue. We are doing all we can. We are not in a position to stop it anytime soon.

“Law enforcement is more joined up now than before, but the scale of the problem is such that despite a number of excellent firearms seizures, I expect the rise in supply to be a continuing issue.”

The increasing supply of guns belies problems with UK border security and innovations by organised crime gangs. Smugglers have increasingly found new ways and innovative routes to get guns past border defences.


Cooke said that the dynamics of the streets of British cities had changed and that criminals were more willing to use guns: “If they bring them in people will buy them. It’s a kudos thing for organised criminals.”

Simon Brough, head of firearms at the NCA, said: “The majority of guns being used are new, clean firearms ... which indicates a relatively fluid supply.”

He said shotguns were 40% of the total, with an increase in burglaries to try and steal them.

Handguns are the next biggest category, most often smuggled in from overseas, with ferry ports such as Dover being a popular entry point into the UK for organised crime groups:

“We’re doing a lot to fight back against it,” Brough said, adding that compared to other European countries, the availability in the UK was relatively lower.

Yes...you can....since hitting a deer in the road kills more people every single year than mass public shooters do.....as Mother Jones shows with their data base....

We have over 330 million people in this country...do you understand how many people that equals?

look at the data base.....mass public shooters are the rarest of rare nut job.....and kill fewer people each year than lawn mowers...

US mass shootings, 1982–2022: Data from Mother Jones’ investigation

Dating back to at least 2005, the FBI and leading criminologists essentially defined a mass shooting as a single attack in a public place in which four or more victims were killed. We adopted that baseline for fatalities when we gathered data in 2012 on three decades worth of cases.

A 2008 FBI report identifies an individual as a mass murderer—versus a spree killer or a serial killer—if he kills four or more people in a single incident (not including himself), typically in a single location. (*In 2013, the US government’s fatality baseline was revised down to three; our database reflects this change beginning from Jan. 2013, as detailed above.)
  • The killings were carried out by a lone shooter. (Except in the case of the Columbine massacre and the Westside Middle School killings, which involved two shooters.)
  • The shootings occurred in a public place.

Crimes primarily related to gang activity or armed robbery are not included, nor are mass killings that took place in private homes (often stemming from domestic violence).
  • Perpetrators who died or were wounded during the attack are not included in the victim tallies.

The more people who read his manifesto, the faster this story will disappear......he was a left wing loon....and the Jew hate was a good indicator of his leftism.......then, his manifesto? He is a self described leftist authoritarian/populist, and eco-fascist....

He also used a gun that was created by democrat party policy...a rifle with a fixed, 10 round magazine.

Why can't we be more like Mao's China, Hitler's Germany, Stalin's USSR and Pol Pot's Cambodia where only the government good guys have all the guns?

Lots of these shootings are associated with Eco fascism which is also racist, authoritarian and opposed to diversity. They aren't hippies.

I don't think you can compare hitting a deer in the road to a mass shooting.

Mass Shootings in the United States

Mass shootings haunt our nation’s collective conscience. Each breaking-news alert results in grief at the acts of preventable violence.

OK. Dude. I'm done with you

You never made any kind of a legit response in the first place. I don’t know why you talk to me in the first place. You make up other people viewpoints.

Would like to have a conversation. Respond to the point being said.. I don’t make up other people’s viewpoints, don’t do it to me.
