Let's get some more Discord callers.

Yeah, let's go with more questions.

New Hampshire has one of the highest per capita gun ownership, and they've got a murder rate that's lower than Canada.

Same thing with Maine.

In fact, not only that, there are more machine guns in the civilian population in New Hampshire than any other state, and the murder rate's lower than Canada.

That's why I carry a gun.

The term mass shooting, though, has been twisted outside of what it really means.

It used to be in the 90s, there was this phrase that you might not remember.

Going postal, of course.

Yeah, going postal, because it was people that would take a gun to work and kill multiple people.

And the left has taken the idea of a mass shooting and say, well, any time there's a shooting and more than two people are shot, it's a mass shooting.

multiple people shot no but that's that's the point so if they'll use the term they'll use the phrase mass shooting when they're talking about gun violence or when they're actually talking about we want to to strengthen gun laws because they'll say anytime it's more than two people but there's this distinct difference between a mass shooting at a school and the term mass shooting brings to mind columbine parkland people you know a bunch of kids getting shot that's what people think of when you hear mass shooting but what they're talking about is people at a party at night someone someone shoots up shoots at someone at a party

And two people get hit because there's a dude behind him.

And they say, well, that was a mass shooting because multiple people got hit.

There was one intended target, right?

Or maybe it was gang violence.

But they say that's a mass shooting when it's convenient.

But then when it's not convenient in your context, they'll switch the meaning to be—

Two groups, I'm sorry, two groups and they shoot at each other and three people get hit.

Is it still mass?
