10 0 ReplyThe article uses the term “mass killing”, so no.
8 0 ReplyRight, but. In the article they state
"A series of murders over the weekend have propelled the United States to a grisly new record: the most recorded mass shootings in a year"
Including the stabbing which they then refer to as a mass killing. I'm not arguing the point of the article. Its just misleading.

No, it's listed in the article as a mass killing, not shooting.
Another attack occurred on Sunday in New York City, when a 38-year-old man stabbed four of his relatives – including two children – as well as another woman and two police officers before they shot him. That was the country’s 41st mass killing of 2023
