Hi!
What is the source of the mass shootings? Thanks!

I’d be interested to see the same graphic map showing all the times a firearm was used to stop a crime.
similarly one showing the deaths per weapon, ie Knife, stranglation, bottle top, handgun, assault rifle, etc.

I’d also like to see the numerous times a weapon was used to stop or prevent a crime and how many lives were saved by doing so.
