Well but it is funny, don't they say it's a crime of passion, or wasn't mentally stable if someone shoots someone 5 or 6 times or more??
I'm not sure. Should we push for an "industry standard" ?? The liberals love to use 3 or more as their defining number because it furthers their anti-bill of rights agenda. The FBI used to use 5 or more to designate "mass murderer" regardless of the weapon. Then, for no apparent reason, 3 or more became the determining number when describing an "active shooter situation". Now, if you use the data from 1970 - 2013, and use 3 or more for the defining number you'll see a sharp decline in the numbers as time goes by and firearm sales increase. BUT, a person who kills 2 and himself and injures 10 or 15 is not entered into any of these "situations". So, was that person a mass murder? An active shooter? A mental case? Or.......?
So, where do we put the knifists? Knifers? Stabbers? Or the bombers? Or the arsonists, the gassers, the.............
