That incident was logged in our database, but a mass shooting defined by GVA is "FOUR or more shot and/or killed in a single event [incident], at the same general time and location not including the shooter."

Can you add Alaska & Hawaii to the maps?
-
We chose to use the 48 state contiguous map as it best reflects the volume and location of the very large majority of gun violence incidents without visually running them together. AK and HI are fully in our database but not on our mapping for readability.

We have not overlaid our maps with a focus on population density, voting record or any other characteristics. We know that some media use our data to do just that.

Can you provide the breakdown of gun deaths by legal gun owners vs. felons or non-legal gun owners?
-
That is not a category we track. We do have the incident characteristic "possession by felon or prohibited person."
