Media coverage of mass shootings “creates this idea that these are very, very common,” she said, but “compared to any other type of shooting event, like suicide, homicide, it is extraordinarily rare.”

And yet on lemmy you never even see an article about causes of violence in america, only "mass shootings." Which encourages for very lazy analysis.
