If flurry means all at once, please so define it as such.  Shots a few seconds a part, yes, could be within the working definition of flurry.

This is pure comedy. So how about identifying where the flurry ended up . This has to be the worse "crew" of assassins ever assembled 5-6-7-8 shots , a flurry, shots shells whatever . All these shots and only ONE hits the target. Would make one think that a marginal shooter with a bad rifle was taking the shots.

Agreed. It seems we are now redefining the English language.

See above, so a snow flurry means all of the snow comes down "all together", I'm not buying it.

Should 2 shots spaced seconds apart be considered "a large amount of something that happens or comes suddenly"?

The latter I would say. Or even 3 shots.

            How many snow flakes do you believe comprise a Snow "flurry"? Certainly More than 2.  Try cruising through Aspen in Dec.

Read it again.  Kellerman heard a noise, heard the president say "My God, I am hit", turned around to see the president's hands near his neck, and then "a flurry of shells come into the car".

Yes... and he also said:

Mr. KELLERMAN. Mr. Specter, these shells came in all together.

Only if that bad rifle was capable of shooting a flurry of shells all together.

Oh ya, I forgot all the shots that were suppressed. I keep forgetting those.Dang.
