Over what duration of time? Mass shootings usually involve multiple victims in the same or similar places. If he shoots one every 2 hours that’s not a mass shooting unless you want very badly for it to be to prove a point. In this case a period of 4 hours… you’re stretching things.
A stretch really? I'd say it's much less of a stretch than those folks who are pushing the "gunfire is the leading cause of death for kids" when they know full well that a H*** percentage of those "kid" deaths are actually the 14-18 year old gang-bangers themselves.
Now it all makes sense why it isn't making a splash. According to WXYZ, an armed bystander intervened in the last incident causing the shooter to flee before he could finish the victim and his dog off. The victim credits his neighbor for saving his life.

That certainly doesn't fit the narrative.
So the media is reporting something they won’t talk about? Huh?

You tried to change the definition of something to fit your own narrative. These were four separate random shootings over the course of 6 hours. This was not a mass shooting… lots of deaths in a confined or relatively confined area in a matter of minutes…
Get your facts straight Junior. The shooting took place in about a two hour time span. The first one a little before 5 AM and the last a tad after 7 AM. All in the same general area. I guess in your world, if a school shooter takes two hours to shoot his or her victims, it isn't a mass shooting. Four students were killed in Oxford, three in this incident. It's a mass shooting.

Regarding the press. Local outlets have to cover this. I'm talking about the national outlets. No CNN, no MSLSD, or the other reprobate networks that can't wait to cover a white guy shooting people with a AK/AR, Never in a million years would they report on an armed citizen putting an end to an incident like this. Who knows how many more victims there may have been if the neighbor didn't intervene.
Go ahead and name another mass shooting that took 2 hours to happen involving 4 random victims at separate locations. If you’re so certain name two. I’ll wait.
DEFINITION:

A mass shooting is an incident of targeted violence carried out by one or more shooters at one or more public or populated locations. Multiple victims (both injuries and fatalities) are associated with the attack, and both the victims and location(s) are chosen either at random or for their symbolic value. The event occurs within a single 24-hour period, though most attacks typically last only a few minutes. The motivation of the shooting must not correlate with gang violence or targeted militant or terroristic activity.*

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

I will concede though I find that incredibly overly broad.

Took them four days.

It has developed into a human interest story now with the outpouring of support from the neighbors of the victim that survived.

Website or cable news?

If the shooter was a white guy with a MAGA hat, would it have made broadcast?
