Original Note:
The Mother Jones Mass Shooting Database, listing all events since 1982 to today with three or more fatalities, indicates a total of 1,312 deaths in over four decades. Gretchen Carlson’s claim that an AR-15 ban could save thousands of lives seems dubious at best. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/mass-shootings-mother-jones-full-data/
