It's probably because they're becoming so common that a mass shooting in and of itself is no longer newsworthy. Mass shootings in the States may as well be as American as apple pie.

Gang-related violence in Chicago is now the Exact Same Thing as a Coors employee going postal in a place not known for frequent violence. Nice whataboutism.

It looks like the shooter was in a long-running feud with a coworker and then snapped.

Coors needs LSD to make it interesting.

My relatives were into it at one time because you couldn’t get it in Michigan.

Not really. There is a claim of a fight with a coworker show claimed he wasted time watching movies on his phone.
