It is worth noting that the Gun Violence Archive, a non-profit dedicated to monitoring gun-related violence and incidents, has recently revealed that there have been a staggering 502 cases of mass shootings in the United States since the beginning of this year.

The report highlights the growing concern surrounding gun violence across the nation.

In late August, the Gun Violence Archive sounded the alarm, revealing a disturbing increase in the frequency of mass shooting incidents in 2023 compared to previous years.

If this alarming trend of an average of two mass shootings per day persists, the year-end figure could soar to a harrowing 700 cases, a grim milestone for the United States amid inaction from officials.

Even more alarming is the revelation that the number of mass shooting cases, involving four or more killed or wounded individuals, has nearly tripled over the past decade. In 2014, the United States recorded 272 such cases, but by 2020, that number had surged to 610. It has been on the rise since then. This trajectory suggests that the years of President Joe Biden's tenure may witness the highest rate of mass shootings in recent memory.
