I know this thread will get locked if it becomes political so please do your very best to keep politics out of it.
The first issue in identifying a solution is understanding the problem. It begins with a failure of uniform definition. The FBI defines a mass murder event as 3 or more people killed. The media is inconsistent with their definition.

And that is the problem right there. That YOU have decided that the problem is a failure of uniform definition of the term "mass murder."
Here's the solution to that problem: stop insisting that's the problem. That's not the problem. The definition of "mass murder" doesn't matter a darned bit.
What matters is that people who shouldn't have had firearms, had them, and used them to kill people who they didn't have the right to kill.
That's the "problem."
