    Where are all these mass bombings and vehicular murders in other Countries then? You average multiple mass shootings per week in the US, while the events in other countries typically happen less than once a year.

        That list proves my point - it’s mostly shootings. You have to go back to 2017 to find a vehicle/bombing attack in a western nation.

          Why limit to “western” nations? Also there are only 3 attacks since 2017 listed in any “western” nation there in the first place

            So what you’re saying is that violence in the US should be compared to Afghanistan and Syria? Ok, I can agree with that.

              I’m saying the causes and environment of terrorism in every continent is different and I don’t generally agree with comparing the US only to what essentially devolves to other predominantly white countries.
