With "only" 3 dead, does it still count as a mass shooting?

4. As defined, no. I know, smdh as well. But, since the "updated" article said,

"at least three", with updates to follow, I am leaving it for now.

Happy murdering new year!!!

7. I noticed that last year. I think police chases get more coverage.

8. Unless it is in a school or a public place they never get covered outside the local area. nt
