When you look at a source like Gun Violence Archive, they report many incidents where there is no loss of life as "mass shootings", and they also report many incidents of criminal conflict as mass shootings. The reality is that if you are not involved in criminal activity, you are vanishingly unlikely to be shot by someone else in the United States.
