I assume this is just what happened on 3 August in each of those years.

So an incel and a white supremacist kill 30 people between them and Trump's response is to call for immigration reform.

Trump can’t do anything though as the gun toting 2nd amendment quoting imbecile is exactly the type of person voting for him.

Well, it’s as much that the NRA effectively own the Republican Party, at this point.

Why would he want to do anything about it, this plays right into his hands.
He wants chaos and everyone at each others throats, it's where he thrives.

It wasn't a hidden joke. I'm sure there are far more mass shootings in the US than the ones listed, so I assume the ones listed are just the ones which happened on 3 August, not in the whole of each year.
The Vegas Mandalay Bay shooting isn't on there, for instance.

It is.
But yes, there’s some missing and I’ve no idea what criteria was used to include/exclude.

Columbine happened on April 20th apparently and Sandy Hook in December (just googling ones where I can clearly identify which they're talking about).

No criticism of you, Dave - I just thought it was odd that apparently there were no shootings in 2013, for instance. Wikipedia has seven listed for that year (that's seven with their own page on Wikipedia, not 7 in total in 2013), with 12 people plus the gunman killed in Washington DC, so it's an odd list.

I did find a website that listed all shootings but I got too depressed before getting any real data out of it.

I just saw someone online refer to these mass shooters as vanilla isis, which is an incredible pun for something so awful.

I wonder if it's affected tourism? If this was say Egypt or other normally popular holiday destination, not many would go to a country with that much gun violence.

Uruguay and Venezuela have both issued travel advisories against travelling to the US based on the level of race-based indiscriminate gun violence in the country.
