Original Note:
"Mass shootings" did not decrease. "From 1976 to 1994, about 18 mass shootings occurred each year. During the ban — 1995 to 2004 — there were about 19 incidents per year. After the ban, through 2011, the average went up to nearly 21." https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation-politics/fact-checking-bidens-claim-that-1994-assault-weapons-law-brought-down-mass-shootings/
