Yes, that's a thing now.  The San Bernardino, CA shooting marked the 355th mass shooting this year in the US.

President Barack Obama told CBS News that the U.S. has “a pattern now of mass shooting in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world.”

The map below is using data from shootingtracker.com.  This map identifies an area where at least 4 people were wounded or killed in a single shooting incident.

The numbers and areas will shock you.
