…for context, in the same timeframe, Americans died of the following non-gun-related causes:

318,792 of heart disease
277,389 of cancer
103,095 of unintentional injuries
74,657 of stroke
65,240 of lower respiratory disease
54,724 of Alzheimer's
47,343 of diabetes

14,700 deaths from mass shootings in 138 days is 106 deaths per day on average in a nation of 335,000,000 people.

This means that each day, each American has an average 1 in 3,144,898 chance of being a victim of a mass shooting; a probability of 0.0000318%.

OK.... "What's wrong with this picture?"
Just another day.... No gun epidemic or societal meltdown happening here folks, nothing to see, move along...

Individual Open Carrying AR-15 Gets Robbed at Gunpoint in St. Louis

Another pandemic turned endemic, sadly. So if everybody in America carries assault weapons, it's all good, eh?

It's not a pretty picture of events and responses, in the past 20+ years. Children bear the brunt of it, for lifetimes & generations.

My reference (begun 9/11, through Columbine and several other school massacres): Children and Violence
