"Three" and "several" are not even worth clicking those links. Not "big"
at all.

How do US gun deaths break down?

Up until 2012, a mass shooting was defined as when an attacker had
killed four or more victims in an indiscriminate rampage - and since
2013 the figures include attacks with three or more victims.

*"The shootings do NOT include killings related to other crimes such
as armed robbery or gang violence"*

Three people have been stabbed to death in London in just over 12 hours.
A man in his 20s was killed in Hackney during a fight outside a row of
shops yesterday afternoon. Overnight, a man also believed to be in his
20s was found fatally wounded in Knightsbridge, yards from luxury
department store Harrods. Another man, whose age has not yet been
released, was killed in the night in Depford, south-east London. The
deaths mean that 136 murder investigations have been launched in London
in 2019. This is the same number as the whole of 2018

That is not how the media counts them and gang violence is a
significant factor. I bet we hear that San Antonio shooting involved
people who had a "business" relationship of an illegal nature if we
hear anything at all. The media usually doesn't like to talk about
that much.

From Euronews.com June 18, 2019:

There were 17,284 homicides in the US in 2017, giving a rate of 5.3
per 100,000. In Britain, there were 785 in financial year 2017/18 —
the nearest equivalent time period — giving a rate of 1.8 per 100,000,
some three times lower.

Within this, there were 285 knife murders in England and Wales in
2017/18 — the highest number since the Second World War — and 34 in
Scotland, giving a combined British rate of 0.48 per 100,000. In the
US, the number for 2017 was 1,591, giving an almost identical rate of
0.49. So even amid a spike in British knife crime, Americans as a
whole are at least as likely as to die from a stabbing.

More recent police data is available for both cities, including a
direct comparison for the calendar year 2018. The official estimated
population of New York was 8,398,748 at July 1, 2018, and 9,006,352
for London.

The NYPD murder total for the year was 295 — less than half the figure
for 2001 and a fraction of 2,200 victims counted in 1990 — giving a
rate of 3.5 per 100,000. In London, there were 136, giving a rate of
1.5, so New York remains twice as deadly despite a successful
decades-long crime crackdown.

Within this, there were 76 homicides attributed to cutting or stabbing
in New York — the exact same number as in London, according to data
from Murdermap. But New York’s rate is slightly higher, at 0.9
compared to 0.8 in London. It means the Big Apple is still deadlier
for knife attacks, but the pattern of recent years suggests that could
be reversed very soon.
