The teal balloons on this map show each Walmart location where shootings occurred between August 1, 2018 and August 3, 2019. El Paso is just the latest and deadliest.
I relied solely on Google News reports to make this map, so I probably missed a few...
Over half of these shootings were in Georgia or Florida, and all but one happened in Southern or Western states which tend to have looser gun laws (FL tightened up some in 2018 post-Parkland).

Nationally, Southern and Western states have higher gun violence incidences overall.
