>This is a consistant tactic used by gun rights advocates: exclude any gun violence they can to reduce the numbers. "This mass shooting doesn't count, it's gang violence", "These deaths don't count, they're suicide", "This isn't a mass shooting, because only 3 people died"

The irony is that your sibling poster also wrote this: "Mumbai attack was a terrorist attack. My response was in context of mass shooting in schools."

If I may suggest, please read 2008 Mumbai attack and see if there are really any parallels. There is a difference when someone from a foreign land acquire weapons outside and attacks you (unless I am missing the point you are trying to make).
