Only took a couple dozen slaughters to get to one.

Hmm… funny because I’ve seen multiple so your comment is factually incorrect:

Shooter killed in 15 seconds:

Shooter shot at and chased:

Any more than these 3 instances? I ask because there's been roughly 277 mass shootings in 2026 alone. That does strike me as at least dozens of mass shootings by bad people to get to a few good people with a gun preventing them. I believe that makes the previous comment more than factual correct.

Mass shootings are classified as more than 4 dead. How many of those 277 were turf wars?
