10 Mass Shootings Since Maine The Media Isn't Talking About

The article is "The 10 Mass Shootings Since Lewiston You Didn't Hear About" by Kevin Downey, Jr., at PJ Media. There are several reasons the media is ignoring them:

  • The body counts were too low--lots of people shot but only a few killed at any one shooting (although there was a shooting in Clinton, North Carolina that left five people dead, but didn't warrant media attention because it involved the next two factors).
  • The shootings involved the usual suspects instead of a white guy.
  • The shootings didn't advance the anti-gun narrative since it was mostly gangbangers using handguns.
The North Carolina incident won't even count as a mass murder (4 or more killed, not including the perpetrator) because the shooting apparently was in relation to illegal drugs.
