Welcome to /r/GunsAreCool, the most downvote brigaded sub on reddit! Today's gun owner downvoting is currently: High.

Our work on gun violence - which is not just limited to our highly esteemed crowd-sourced mass shooting tracker (created by *cough* /u/BillySpeed) - has been cited by: Time, The Washington Times, Newsweek, Snopes, Modern Healthcare, Fox News, etc., etc. Unsurprisingly, Fox News blatantly misrepresents the facts by claiming that MST "counts in its tally any shooting that leaves two or more people wounded or killed" (in fact, we define "mass shooting" as an incident of violence in which four or more people are shot).

2015-2017

2014 and earlier

Bottom line? Gun violence in the U.S. has killed more Americans since 1968 than have died in ALL the wars in this country's history. Between 2012 and 2021, 1 out of every 74 deaths in the U.S. was caused by gunshot!

According to gun owners on reddit, blacks/latinos don't count when shot, so we only include them for, like, science and stuff. ©
