Nope, there are 38 mass shootings which are a record for mass shootings. Additionally the guardian mentions mass stabbings, usually a pro-gun argument.

The WP article linked in the Guardian article mentions 38 mass shootings and has no reference to stabbings. In the infographic for every incident it mentions a shooter specifically, not a perpetrator or attacker.

Your comment is misleading, not the article.

Why would I be talking about the washington post article? Im talking about the stabbing mentioned in the article of this thread.

Because it's linked as a source in the article when the shootings are mentioned.

But indeed it is clear even from just the Guardian article that the 37th and 38th mass shootings of this year broke the record of 36 mass shootings. All this before any stabbing or overall mass killing is mentioned.

None of the articles are misleading, your comments are, I guess purposely.

Correct. The whole purpose of my comments were to mislead you. Specifically. I hope you have a good rest of your day even though you suffered from my comments.

Nowhere did I insinuate you were trying to mislead me specifically. That's also misleading.

Have a good night.
