Ep. 986 Do Mass Shootings Only Happen in the US?

Broadcast on:
27 May 2022

Highlights:     

  • “I’m finding that even someone like Ted Cruz, who’s otherwise quite the formidable debater, even he seemed ill-equipped to answer the charge that the US is the only nation on the planet that has mass shootings.”
  • “It may surprise you, the worst incidents of mass public shootings have been in South Asia, Europe, and Africa .”
  • “This study (by John R. Lott, President of the Crime Prevention Research Center) has patiently and soberly analyzed the global data, and found that the United States, whether we like it or not, is responsible for only 2.2% of mass public shootings around the world and even less so, it’s responsible for just 1.5% of all deaths due to mass public shootings.”
