"Over 100 million Americans own guns. If guns were the problem, the number of shootings would be orders of magnitude higher. In fact, there have been only 85 mass shootings this century."
(This does not jibe with the photos of 2019 mass shooters just posted here! - De)
I believe this will turn on the criteria used to define "mass shooting." If it is defined by the shooting of 4 or more people, then this author's number is too low ... 'cuz shootings of 4 or more people happen all the time in the Democrat Plantation of Chicago.
