2 people were killed and 9 others injured in shooting at Brown University

[K.I.T.T.]

A shooter dressed in black killed at least two people and wounded eight others at Brown University on Saturday during final exams on the Ivy League campus, authorities said, and police were searching for the suspect.

Officers scattered across the campus and into an affluent neighborhood filled with historic and stately brick homes, searching academic buildings, backyards and porches for hours late into the night after the shooting erupted in the afternoon.

Out of 389 mass shootings you can take 90% of them

Cant delete what I started to write earlier so Ill try again:
Out of 389 mass shootings you can take 90% of them off that list as they are mostly domestic incidents where a family member kills their family, or gang or drug dealer shootings, and not the guy walks into a school/bar/MacDonalds type etc. In fact 2025 has seen a substantial drop in overall mass shootings as described in all categories. One article online talks about the real number as being 17 though I havent vetted that.

Yep, the problem is the interpretation of the word "mass". Now it's anything over 3 victims, whether they die(d) or not.

They have a person of interest in custody. They won’t release the race or ethnicity. We usually know what that means.

It means it’s not what they were hoping for.

A white male republican.

Your comment reinforces my opinion of the USA.....fucked....

The fact that your going to statistical analysis, to bring down the numbers of mass shootings....... shows that "Dumbfuckastan" (formally known as the USA) is soo used to shootings that there is a way to make it look good ! ! ! ! !

Thats not the best way to prove your point.... try again...... Rookie

No its just to inform stupid people who think there have been 389 events like the one at Brown uni the other night that there in fact have not been that many. One real mass shooting is too many but for the uninformed to propagate the nonsense that it has happened 389 times just makes you the rookie. You can try again.
P.S. the real number after Brown is 18. Not excusing it but just stating facts.

First, stop with the extra large font. As you can see, most of us can read just fine without the unnecessary emphasis.

Second, sensible people know that three victims isn't a "mass" event. I think many of us would agree that twenty is probably a much more suitable quantity of corpses to qualify as a "mass".

So the real problem is we need to get to work on the victim count. For this, I propose Americans should form a Mass Casualty Coordination Unit comprised of volunteers. Kind of like militias, but to assist the psychos with their lofty endeavors.

Besides, the body-bag industry isn't competitive enough. I'd like to see Glad bodyBags become a household name.

Say, when is your next family reunion?
