I’m assuming they’re including things like a Worcester shooting in 2020 where 6 people were shot - no one died. Which just helps prove the point that states w strict gun control laws prevent more deadly events.
There have been significant mass shootings in MA, but they don’t coincide with the dates that this map claims. It’s hard to fact check this map, it seems.
