Dont have data and dont want to hear false flag but why does it seem that more "mass shootings" happen when Democrats are in office.

Is life that much worse under them that mass shootings goes up?

Was life better under republicans that people were enjoying life and not going crazy?

All the big mass shootings (outside of Parkland) was under Democrats in power

Bruh, the biggest WTF shooting in my lifetime happened in 2017 on the Vegas strip. How the frick that story just up and vanished like a fart in the wind is beyond me. It got bump stocks banned.


eta: It was a white dude killing white people though so it didn't really fit anyone's agenda I guess.

Do some research before posting, dumb arse.

The San Ysidro McDonald's shooting was Reagan.

The Luby's Shooting was Bush Sr.

The Virginia Tech shooting was Bush Jr.

The Texas church shooting was Trump.

The Las Vegas shooting was Trump.

The Thousand Oaks, CA shooting was Trump.

The Virginia Beach shooting was Trump.

The Santa Fe High School shooting was Trump.

Plus the shootings can result in more reliable Dem voters, but only if they're killed.

If it was a white dude shooting that night, you know goddamn well it would have been considered a mass shooting by the media and they'd be using it to pile on their anti-gun agenda.

Of the top 30 mass shooting I am counting 8 for Trump and 8 for Obama.

Trump
Santa Fe Shooting
Pittsburg Shooting
Virginia Beach Shooting
Parkland FL shooting
El Paso Walmart Shooting
Sutherland Spring Shooting
Las Vegas Shooting
Thousand Oaks

Obama
Orlando shooting
Sandy Hook
Fort Hook
San Bernardino
Binghamton
Aurora
Washington Navy Yard
Geneva County

Seems to happen under To Republicans too. (Why do hey happen in election years!?!?) that’s every other year.

They just happen.

I only counted ones where more than 4 were killed or injured, but under each president (total | per year):

Biden 22 | ~11
Trump 64 | 16
Obama 65 | 8.125
Bush 28 | 3.5

My guess is it has absolutely nothing to do with who is in charge.

Vegas strip shooting: 2017

Pennsylvania Synagogue shooting: 2018

El Paso Walmart shooting: 2019

Seems like you forgot 3 pretty significant ones from the Trump years.

ETA: Other posters did a much better job pointing out the absurdity of the OP.

If we change it to >= 25 dead/injured:

Biden (2):
Robb Elementary School shooting
2022 New York City Subway attack

Trump (8):
2019 West Texas shooting
2019 Dayton shooting
2019 El Paso shooting
Thousand Oaks shooting
Stoneman Douglas High School shooting
Sutherland Springs church shooting
2017 Las Vegas shooting
Little Rock nightclub shooting

Obama (6):
Orlando nightclub shooting
2015 San Bernardino attack
2015 Waco shootout
Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting
Aurora, Colorado, movie theater shooting
2009 Fort Hood shooting

Bush (3):
Northern Illinois University shooting
Virginia Tech shooting
D.C. sniper attacks

But I don't think any deranged person wanting to kill a person waits until a specific party is in charge.

I will agree with that statement, might be a rececny bias but seems you hear more about them under Dem leadership.

Somethings got to change because its happening too much

They don't. You just perceive it that way, because it confirms your biases.

The largest mass shooting in US history took place in 2017 under a GOP administration.
