That depends on your definition of a mass shooting. Multiple people get shot in NY everyday.New York State is actually an incredible example.
Despite having the 4th largest population in the United States there has only been 4 mass shootings between 1982-2022
Why?
Cause it’s ****ing hard to buy guns there.
They actually DID SOMETHING.

Between 1982 and 2022 I guarantee it's happened more than 4 times.The definition of mass shooting I have found is defined as a single event involving more than 4 people shot
Between 1982 and 2022 I guarantee it's happened more than 4 times.
My point is that if 5 people get shot at the park it's not considered a mass shooting. I say that it's happened way more than 5 times over past 40 years.*5 my bad, point still standsMass shootings in the U.S. by state 1982-2024 | Statista

A single event with 4 people shot is a mass shooting according to your definition. How does 5 people shot not meet the criteria? NY state and NYC aren't the same either so might be talking about 2 different things.5 mass shootings, not 5 people is considered a mass shooting.
So in your example 3 people would not be considered a mass shooting.
NY state has the bottom 5 gun violence per capita state by state but top 4 population
I think there’s some miscommunication between us. But anyway NYC is in NY State right? So if it happened in NYC it would have registered in NY State.A single event with 4 people shot is a mass shooting according to your definition. How does 5 people shot not meet the criteria? NY state and NYC aren't the same either so might be talking about 2 different things.
