The data table funded by the poster on everytown.org combines incidents involving "assault weapons" OR "high capacity magazines", which the author describes as more than 10 rounds. https://www.everytown.org/solutions/assault-weapons/ This artificially increases "assault weapon" casualties by including many handguns with factory magazines.

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1879602790043164809
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
