But I saw it on the news!

The Myth That the US Leads the World in Mass Shootings

    If you follow the link in the article to Lankford, the only way it is possible for those numbers to be true, is that he says many shootings overseas “don’t count” for various reasons.

    Some shootings were excluded because they were done by military deserters, some because they were terrorists (Mumbai), and some because they were committed by militias.

    Thank you for this.

  3. Chuck Pergiel Says:

    Our rate may be lower, but all the other countries listed are much smaller, so we, with our larger population could have a larger number of mass shootings while still having a lower rate. It just depends on who’s talking and what story they are trying to sell.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
