Six separate mass shootings bring tally to 324 this year, underscoring continuing US crisis of gun violence

Sunday’s mass murder at a Mormon church in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, which left at least four worshippers dead and eight wounded, was just one of six mass shootings that erupted across the US over a weekend of gun horror.

The Gun Violence Archive, an online non-profit database which records mass shootings in America, added six fresh incidents over Saturday and Sunday. The concentrated bloodletting, spread out across four states, took the lives of nine people, including the suspect in Sunday’s shooting at Grand Blanc’s Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints church, as well as injuring at least 33.


The weekend’s spate brings the archive’s tally of mass shootings – defined as events with at least four victims injured or killed, not counting the shooter – to 324 this year alone, as of Monday morning. That is a rate of more than one a day.

How many were in Portland?

"An estimated 17,140 people lost their lives in motor vehicle crashes from January through June 2025"

"The number of deaths for June 2025 is estimated to be 3,420."

Anti gun fanatics don't give a shit about human lives. All they care about is screaming about guns which kill way less people than vehicles do.

Despite guns being "designed to kill", vehicles designed to be as safe as possible, and guns outnumbering vehicles around 2 to 1.

Never mind how many crimes are stopped or self defense cases there are using guns, with estimates being between hundreds of thousands to millions of cases per year.

Everyone on this planet is more likely to die because Americans use so much air conditioning.

And Americans are way more likely to be killed by a gun whether Europeans have air conditioning or not.

And pool owners are more likely to drown in their pools than people who don't have pools.

Have you ever wondered why people who live in countries without gun violence literally never ask "Should we have more guns?"

Why do you think that is?

It's the same reason they're not asking 'why don't we put packs of rabid dogs in children's playgrounds?'

The reason why the billions of people across India and Europe and Russia and Indonesia and Australia - just to name a few random places - aren't constantly debating guns is simple: it's because there is in fact no debate.
