<upd_detl>Robin, what's reported as "mass shootings" in English 
language media are basically always reported as 銃乱射 in 
the Japanese media.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Yes but 銃乱射 does not mean "mass shooting". 
It may be a useful gloss but it shouldn't go first.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>&gt;Yes but 銃乱射 does not mean "mass shooting".
I think it does. It's all about how it's actually used, 
isn't it? For the first 40 search results on Google, all 
correspond to "mass shooting" much better than they do 
to "shooting spree." I haven't been able to find a 
single usage of the word where it doesn't refer to 
several people being shot (and killed).
_
There's also not anything in the word "mass shooting" 
that "implies many deaths." Wiki just defines it as 
"mass shooting is an incident involving multiple victims 
of firearms-related violence. The United States' 
Congressional Research Service acknowledges that there 
is not a broadly accepted definition, and defines a 
"public mass shooting"[2] as one in which four or more 
people selected indiscriminately, not including the 
perpetrator, are killed or injured".</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>1st article: 0 dead. 2 injured.
2nd article: 1 dead. 0 injured.
3rd article: 1 dead. 2 injured. 
4th article: 0 dead. 2 injures.

Even if 銃乱射 refers to a mass shooting 99 times out of 100, I don't think it's correct to say that they're equivalent. Very few people would describe the above incidents as mass shootings.</upd_detl>
