The United States has witnessed a concerning surge in active shootings since 2020,
with the number of mass shootings escalating from 414 in 2019 to a staggering 690 in
2021, the worst year on record. This dangerous trend persisted in 2023, with 656 mass
shootings occurring across the nation. While the first six weeks of 2024 saw a slight
decrease compared to recent years, the death toll remains alarmingly high, with 75
fatalities and 140 injuries from just 44 mass shootings. The COVID-19 pandemic and its
psychological and financial strains have been cited as potential contributing factors to
this disturbing rise in gun violence.
