It’s slightly confusing but is explained in the article that all mass shooting are mass killings but not all mass killings are shootings, which of course makes sense.
No, it’s listed in the article as a mass killing, not shooting.
Another attack occurred on Sunday in New York City, when a 38-year-old man stabbed four of his relatives – including two children – as well as another woman and two police officers before they shot him. That was the country’s 41st mass killing of 2023
They are counting the stabbing in NY as a mass shooting?
The article uses the term “mass killing”, so no.
Right, but. In the article they state
“A series of murders over the weekend have propelled the United States to a grisly new record: the most recorded mass shootings in a year”
Including the stabbing which they then refer to as a mass killing. I’m not arguing the point of the article. Its just misleading.
The stabbing is separate and unrelated.
We’ve had more than 38 in my county alone. But that’s why they conflate mass shooting and mass killing.
