It's one of four today SO FAR, and while it's a big one it may not really make news. 7 mass shootings would stay on the news cycle for a few days, though, unless an 8-shootings day pops up... and they do.

Edit:

  • 28th July
  • 4th July
  • 5th July -- why yes, that is 16 mass shootings in two days.
  • 23rd June

and one day of NINE MASS SHOOTINGS on the 31 March.
