The San Bernardino shooting is the second mass shooting today and the 355th this year
by Christopher Ingraham

Authorities in San Bernardino, Calif., saying 14 people were killed and 14 others were injured in a mass shooting on Wednesday at a center for people with developmental disabilities. This is at least the third mass shooting since the rampage in Colorado Springs last Friday.

Here's a look at the year's mass shootings, including yesterday's.

The San Bernardino shooting is the 355th mass shooting this year, according to a mass shooting tracker maintained by the Guns Are Cool subreddit. The Reddit tracker defines mass shootings as incidents in which four or more people, including the gunman, are killed or injured by gunfire.

The Mass Shooting Tracker is different from other shooting databases in that it uses a broader definition of mass shooting — the old FBI definition focused on four or more people killed as part of a single shooting.

It would be also be the second mass shooting just today -- in the early morning hours, one person was killed and three were injured in an incident in Savannah, Georgia.

Speaking after the Colorado Springs shooting last week, President Obama urged Americans to not let this type of violence "become normal." But the data show that this type of incident already is normal. There have been more mass shootings than calendar days so far this year.

The number of mass shootings so far this year has already surpassed the total number of mass shootings in 2014, according to the Reddit tracker. And the pace is well above 2013's pace, when a total of 363 mass shootings occurred.

It was an Islamic  terrorist attack to be more precise....I'd group what happened last week as more a mass shooting.

its hilarious to see how hard Lefties are going to steer this into a 'gun issue' and completely ignore the fact that it was yet another Islamic-based attack.

Toothpaste it out of the tube.  Bad guys aren't giving guns back.  These fools had pipe bombs.  They aren't giving up their aks. 

Neighboring business owner did get his gun out and was prepared to protext those who hid in his store.  He was outside when they drove away.  It's a start.  He might have died, but hiding behind a truck he may have gotten the drop on both of them and ended it. 

Guns aren't going away.  All we can do now is make it so bad guys know pulling that guns mean someone in that place will shoot back.  Or ten some bodies.

They had the radio controled IEDs as well....can't work place violence that shit away. I guess they mounted the pipe bombs on remote contro, cars. Anybody want to riddle me this...why the hell was the FBI on scene immediatly...why? Maybe because they had these fucks on their radar and when they popped off they were like "oh shit! Its being leaked that cops knew it was terrorism in an hour. I also think they were going back to fuck with the cops and thats why they were still around there.

The MSM is sure as hell going to try to make this some work place bullshit. This does not fit the "gun grab" narrative. You will notice that POTUS didn't go ape shit about gun control after this little incident, wonder why? Must just be a case of sudden jihadi syndrome  ::)

They won't call it a terrorist attack because people might actually realize that .gov cannot protect you, the police are not going to be able to protect you, so you better protect yourself............

Agreed. Although, I don't think last weeks shooting even counts as "mass shooting" because it was less than 4?

You nailed it:

"Syed Rizwan Farook -- who along with his wife, Tashfeen Malik, carried out the San Bernardino shooting massacre -- apparently was radicalized and in touch with people being investigated by the FBI for international terrorism, law enforcement officials said Thursday."
