re: Numerous law enforcement officers struck by gunfire in a major North Carolina city

Of our 33 most deadly mass shootings (10 or more deaths), only 2 occurred in election years, pre election. Aurora in 2012 and nyc in 84. Sandy Hook occurred in an election year, but post election. That seems to be less frequently than election years being 25% of the sample.

I used most deadly shootings since mass shootings have such a questionable and varying definition, used solely to skew stats.

I guess I stand corrected. It just feels like more shite pops up during election years.

Pretty sure the Pulse Nightclub shooting was during the 2016 election season because the media and Democrats tried to blame it on hateful MAGA rhetoric and cover up the fact that it was an act of jihad that had nothing to do with sucking cock.

And then a few weeks later the shooter's dad attended a Clinton campaign rally.


But enough nitpicking, today's event appears to have nothing to do with a "mass shooting" or politics and was just feds fricking around and finding out.
