The problem is America is just prejudice in general. To us outside the US, mass shootings may as well be terrorist attacks. They both use violence to cause terror. Your governments hide behind the boogie man (aka Muslims) because gun lobby groups fund their election campaigns. They want to separate the two issues so that American's have an external enemy to hate rather than worry about all the children getting killed at schools by local grown terrorists.

So i see that you believe that Americans have an incorrect fixation on terrorism.  This might be because we have had more and worse terrorism than any nation except for perhaps Israel.    

USA ranks 30th in the global terrorism index

Burkina Faso ranks first.

Burkina Faso became the country with the highest impact from terrorism for the first time, with deaths from terrorism increasing by 68 per cent to 1,907. A quarter of all terrorism deaths occurring globally were in Burkina Faso.


You had the worst attack in history with 9/11 in 2001, but it's time to get over it and move on. It's 2025 now.


I would wager that Gaza is now nr 1 for the worst terrorism experienced.
