What is your risk of death from a gun in the US compared to, say, riding a bicycle? Much less. http://www.businessinsider.com/mass-shooting-gun-statistics-201

  To be fair, the US isn't noted for being especially good at bicycle safety either.

  Headline reads: "Americans are more likely to die from gun violence than many leading causes of death combined" Gun violence is far, far ahead of riding a bicycle. And no I don't particularly care if the bullet that kills me is part of a single shooting or a mass shooting.

  Did you read the article? It says Assault by gun - 1 in 315 Bicycling - 1 in 4030 So cycling is 10x safer.

    I was looking at the "mass" shooting number in the linked article, but you're right.
