Kidding aside, those stats don't address the issue. Needed is data on potential mass shootings where 2 or more private citizens were involved.

Shootings where only one armed private citizen was on the scene don't incur the possibility of mistaking a good guy with a gun for a bad guy with a gun.

They are called mass "shootings" not mass "killings" and as I said it is very difficult to control for the variables. At the only mass shooting I am aware of where there were more than 2 private citizens with weapons, the shooting was stopped without the use of those weapons.
