"At Mother Jones, where I work as an editor, we have compiled an in-depth, open-source database covering more than three decades of public mass shootings. By our measure, there have been four “mass shootings” this year, including the one in San Bernardino, and at least 73 such attacks since 1982."
"Grim details from the church in Charleston, a college classroom in Oregon and a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado are still fresh, but you could be forgiven for wondering how you missed more than 300 other such attacks in 2015."
An Op-Ed piece in the NYT from an editor at Mother F'n Jones of all places...
Fact is the US is well down on the charts behind France, Belgium, Norway and host of other countries most with far more restrictive gun laws....but hey, its your story...
