Magicboyd25 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 If it makes you feel any better, there's only about 50,000 shooting a year. Most of these are gang related. There's 310,000,000 people in America. This isn't as often as an occurrence as you might think. Well I dont know if that makes me feel better but it is interesting to see the stats.

stetonic Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Aug. 26 is the 238th day of the year. And with the fatal shooting in Virginia today — in which a gunman shot himself after killing two reporters and wounding one more person — plus the shooting of four during a Minneapolis home invasion, the number of mass shooting incidents has risen to 247 for the year. These numbers are compiled by the moderators of the GunsAreCool subreddit, a sarcastically named community that tracks gun violence in America. They define "mass shooting" as any single incident in which at least four people are shot, including the gunman. The tracker comes in for some criticism because its definition is broader than the FBI's definition, which requires three or more people to be killed by gunfire. But the broader definition is nonetheless a useful one, because it captures many high-profile instances of violence — like the recent Lafayette theater shootings — that don't meet the FBI's criteria.
