What. The. Fuck? Apparently, there's been 346 mass shootings in America in 2017 alone. I'm not quite sure what constitutes a mass shooting, but fuck me.

Mass Shooting    FOUR or more shot and/or killed in a single event [incident], at the same general time and location  not including the shooter.

Although I suspect that many in the US would regard only 4 as "Not Even Trying"

I wrote this on another forum on the 16th February, therefore it may even be out of date now....

There have been 18 school shootings in the US in 2018 already, to bring some context to that if you adjust the figures for the difference in population that means that if we had the similar rate in the UK we would have suffered 5 school shootings in the UK since 1st January 2018.

Try one of the electric fly swatters (twatters as my wife calls them), that can give you a real testicle "buzz".
