Original Note:
There have not been that number of mass shootings in the US. Not by any standard definition nor a consistent definition Mother Jones has addressed this at least twice https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2015/12/no-there-were-not-355-mass-shootings-this-year/ https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/mass-shootings-mother-jones-full-data/ And Statista published similar, consistent data: https://www.statista.com/statistics/811487/number-of-mass-shootings-in-the-us/
