TEN PEOPLE WERE killed on Thursday in a shooting at a US community college in Roseburg, Oregon.

But the shooting was not an aberration, nor is it expected, in isolation, to create any meaningful change.

In fact, there have been 294 incidents where someone has been wounded in a shooting at least since New Year’s Day in the States. Today is the 276th day of the year.

Here is a timeline of just some of the worst mass shootings in the United States over the past 10 years:
