Well getting the government to agree on a definition was attempted and lobbied against. That’s why I said any discussion needs to set the definition to be productive. Basically every major news investigation on the topic manages to, and so do the few studies on the subject. In general “an act of violence—excluding gang killings, domestic violence, or terrorist acts sponsored by an organization—in which a gunman kills at least four victims” or some variation is used more often than anything else. That’s a far cry from the mass killing measure law enforcement tracks.
