Starting on March 16, when eight people were killed at three Atlanta-area spas, the US has had at least 45 mass shootings, according to CNN reporting and an analysis of data from the Gun Violence Archive (GVA), local media, and police reports.
As briangj2 points out, above, there have been 130 mass shootings since 1-1-2021, not the paltry number shown in the cartoon, and the majority have occurred in “red” states, which the artist, being Mexican, might not have known, anyway (this is especially annoying since my state of New Mexico has a “bullet hole” (1 dead, 3 injured in a “meth” deal gone bad) in it) but I’m just being picky and Xolo was just trying to make a point!
