Subject: Mass shootings that occurred in countries where shootings are uncommon Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:34 pm
I'd like to share this list of mass shootings by single or two individuals that occurred in countries that mostly does not have mass shootings due to gun laws.
1995 Zhaodong massacre: Beginning with China deadliest mass shootings committed by two individuals. Two suspects, 26-year-old Feng Wanhai and 22-year-old Jiang Liming, armed with a double-barreled shotgun and a small-bore rifle, opened fire at 48 people, killing 32 people and wounding 16 others. 37 families were affected by the incident. More information at the Wikipedia article.
January 23, 1961 Krobo, Ghana shooting: Obscure mass shooting that occurred in Ghana on January 23, 1961 in Krobo. Six people were killed.
July 7, 1999 Buxton massacre: Raul Herod, 36-year-old operations supervisor, shot his 97-year-old grandmother, Angela Herod, his mother, Shirley Cole-Herod, 60; aunt Patricia Harris 58; niece, Jonelle Herod, nephew, Orin Herod, daughter, Adele Herod, and son, Rodel Herod. Herod then re-entered his house, set the building alight, and then shot himself dead.
1996 Mozes Kilangin Airport massacre: Second Lieutenant Sanurip began firing with his assault rifle at about 7 a.m. He first shot five other military personnel, including Lieutenant Colonel Adel Gustinigo, commander of Detachment 81, the counter-terrorist arm of the Indonesian army's elite special forces, as well as a major and captain, and then shot indiscriminately at anyone, while running out of the hangar. Within seconds he killed 16 people. Ocurred on April 15, 1996.
Do you know more?

Depends on what you consider as common and uncommon. Here's a few I can think of, off the top of my head. I can think of 5 in Britain 3 in Australia 2 in New Zealand 1 in Holland 4 in Finland 1 in Switzerland 1 in Belgium 2 in Austria 5 in France 8 in Germany (Didn't include the actual details because that would take way too long, if you want specifics then ask)

Bosnia and Herzegovina - Tomislav Petrović in 2008, killed 6 people in Lipnica - Lipnica is fairly close to Tuzla, the city where I live but I commuted from Lukavac when it happened and I had the privilege of reading his court case file in 2017 when I started my judicial clerkship. Nepal - 2001 Royal massacre, such a bizarre and often overlooked mass shooting. Zero Hour had an episode about it. It can be found on YouTube.

The mass murders in Falun, Sweden 1994 is one I can think of at the moment, but many more have occurred internationally.
1994 seems to have been a pretty dark year for Sweden considering two mass shootings, not to mention the sinking of M/S Estonia in 1994 as well. That is another topic, yet still worth mentioning.
