    Most are but the idea is to get a large body count so they get as much media attention as possible. There are countless studies showing how the media has helped heavily drive these mass attacks.

      I’d imagine these gross chuds would relish the thought of a dramatic shootout as a part of their killing spree.

      I mean, they’re expecting cops to arrive in with itchy trigger fingers anyway.

        Most kill themselves the second that force shows up, they want soft targets and a body count…plus a wikipedia page. Suicide by cop or their own hand is what they want

      It’s not a media problem. It’s a gun problem that seems to be very specific to one country.

      There’s also that lack of a social safety net, healthcare,etc…

        Guns are out of the box, you’re not solving shootings via confiscation anymore. And these mass shootings started to occur right around the time these 24/7 news media companies sprang up.

        Safety nets and fixing our society will do *100 more than trying to get rid of 450+ million firearms.

          Strange that all countries aren’t just going off the rails with gun violence in schools huh? What’s unique about the US??

            Considering all the countries you want to compare the US with have social safety nets and actually try and support their citizens…they usually also have less violence over all, but let’s ignore that.
