...but not when a disgruntled employee or gang-banger shoot four or more people? Well first of all I've seen at least one disgruntled employee mass shooting described exactly as that. Feel free to show me the numerous ones that have not been, though. As far as gangland shootings go, they tend to be over criminal elements and not just killing for the sake of killing. When innocent people do get caught in the crossfire, it's considered accidental or collateral damage. The intent of the killing has a hand in it being called a "mass shooting". This isn't even getting into how it is atypical for more than 4 people to be killed in a gangland shooting to necessitate the mass shooting moniker anyways. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

r25 posted...Questionmarktarius posted...smoke_break posted...Is this a mass shooting or just a shooting? It could be a gang-related or escalation from an argument or a fight. We need more details. I think a lot of people only consider it a mass shooting if it's a public place with double digit random victims vs. something more personal like a gang or workplace shooting. They're all mass shootings though. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I will say that Walmart is next to the hood. Theres another Walmart on Siegen not far from there that's in a shopping center where a lot of people prefer to go specifically to not go to the Burbank one. For reasons like this. They just threw the mass shooter label on this prematurely because of recent events but honestly it's probably someone got into a dumb argument with someone then pulled a gun out and fired.
Source: I live in BR and tbh those kind of shootings arent exactly uncommon. We had another Walmart shooting in the city a couple months ago in fact --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Don't go to Walmart this week. I actually was going to go to walmart this week and probably would have been shot, but I randomly had to get my router replaced on Saturday and some dude gave me an all day bus pass so I was like "fuck it, might as well go to walmart too since my fare is already paid." That good Samaritan probably saved my life. --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

The store was frequented by Mexican nationals who don't want to carry a gun in the US for various reasons, making it a softer target. The Dayton shooter was killed by cops in 30 seconds and he still managed to shoot 14 people. If he had only a semi-auto pistol with a magazine of let's say 8+1 then he would have shot 5 less assuming perfect accuracy. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...

It could be a gang-related or escalation from an argument or a fight. We need more details. Yeah, 4 not including the shooter is the accepted definition. It skyrockets if you make the threshold three. Also keep in mind that the definition of a mass shooting does not take into account the number of people who died. A mass murder would require four or more fatalities. Of the 250 or so mass shootings this year so far, about twenty have had four or more fatalities. Approximately half had no fatalities. Again, not saying that to make it seem like less of an issue, just trying to make sure everyone is informed. ... Copied to Clipboard!
