    The last one was August 26th according to this wikipedia list, which is 60 days ago. But there were 2 in August 3 days apart, so… I guess it has been a while by comparison.

    But only if you don’t look at this other list on Wikipedia. This list has only 1 of a chosen set of sources who referred to it as a mass killing, the other lists mass killings where 2+ of their sources called it a mass killing. I wonder how long the 3+ sources list will be before it gets it own fork.

    I remember a time when each would be the center of news for at least a week.

        Yep. I got real suspicious when the first list said August, which is when I noticed it said that I should also look at the “more comprehensive” list. I opened that up and thought “yeah, yesterday, that sounds about right”.
