10. The Guardian: Every mass shooting in the US - a visual database
Sun May 29, 2022, 06:38 PM
May 2022
It’s rare to go one day without a mass shooting in America.

Since 2014 the US has averaged more than one mass shooting a day, according to data from the Gun Violence Archive. There is no official definition of “mass shooting”, but this database tracks incidents in which at least four people are shot or killed, not including the shooter.

This list includes the high-profile incidents, such as the Parkland shooting, the Orlando shooting and the Atlanta shooting. But thousands of other mass shootings have come and gone like any other day.


The Guardian: Every mass shooting in the US – a visual database

This database tracks every mass shooting in America, but even it only goes back to 1/1/14. The problem is so much more endemic than most realize. There have been 44 mass shootings this month alone, and the month's not over...

Uvalde is the 213th mass shooting this year.
