It's quite odd because the last string of mass shootings also all popped up at the same time too. 3 shootings in 2 days of each other iirc

Not odd quite normal. Tend to happen in batches. Media just reports on them more because if it bleeds it leads.

Only reason these stories hit the news is because Asians were killed and they were chomping at the bit for a hate crime story. Lots of shooting like this where black people kill other black people and they might get a blurb in the back.
