Original Note:
Lack of context could lead a reader to believe that the "AR-15" was used in all incidents, when in several cases they had multiple guns or guns described as "AR-15 style" guns. A few examples: Aurora: 4 guns Boulder: AR-556 pistol Vegas: 23 guns Orlando: MCX Parkland: M&P15 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/04/22/fact-check-post-missing-context-ar-15-rifles-and-mass-shootings/7039204002/
