Mass shootings come along once every few weeks/months, and they make for very dramatic news stories, but if you combine their body counts, do they really come anywhere close to measuring up to the combined body count of all the more mundane, isolated shootings happening every day? I seriously doubt it.
There is something funny about the rise in right-wing domestic terrorists. It seems to me they're fighting a losing war. Or really just lashing out in desperation at a cultural war they've already lost. Or maybe their side of the war isn't down for the count just yet, and the ones lashing out violently are just the stupid ones. In private, the real brains behind the right wing conspiracy may be shaking their heads in dismay at these idiots shooting the cause in the foot.
