“Mass shooting tracker”

Here's a good resource for tracking how barbaric the United States is thanks to the gun craziness.  A "mass shooting" is any outburst of gun violence in which four or more people are shot.  The U.S. has nearly two mass shootings every day; in 2023 already, 376 people have been killed and more than 900 wounded.  That was obviously the intention of the "Framers" of the U.S. Constitution.  As a good originalist, however, I do believe everyone is entitled to own a single shot musket.
