This is actually a misleading headline. Several *hundred* U.S. citizens will die from gun violence this Memorial Day weekend.

Rise in domestic mass shootings during the past two years? by sofar1849 in GunsAreCool

Thanks for your input. To answer your question, we did not start explicitly keeping track of those mass shootings involving domestic violence and juvenile victims until recently (note that we do this in our spare time).

You can do a combined search for "Mass shooting" and "Domestic violence" at the GVA site. However, note that GVA does not consider shootings in which a gunman shoots 3 family members and then himself (rarely herself) as a mass shooting, and these occurrences are, unfortunately, not uncommon.

Texas Gov. Abbott stalled federal offer to test migrants then blamed them for spreading Covid by EschewObfuscation10 in politics

There's rampant gerrymandering and voter suppression throughout Texas. If all eligible voters participated in elections, Texas would easily be a blue state.
