Of those, “the number of known suspects in mass shootings which are trans is under 10 for the last decade,” which translated to “1:880 [or 0.11%] of the 4,400 shootings” they recorded, he said.
Most citations show about .3-.6 for the transgender community. The most recent article I read showed about 4 out of 300 for mass shootings. The problem is how they define it but even at the number, it shows a trans person is more likely to be a mass shooter as a percentage of the population.
If you only look at raw numbers, yes, white males are more likely in volume to commit mass shootings but they are one of the single largest groups. That is a no brainer.
It isn’t rare at when you look look at the percentage of the population. Trans people are more likely to go on A mass shooting.
According to another users comment below:
For the US, “About 1.03% of the nation’s adult population identifies as transgender, according to the Household Pulse Survey.”
So it seems people who aren’t trans are approximately ten times more likely to go on a mass shooting. Am I missing something?
Yes. Since they are less than 1% of the population. We should rarely if even see a trans person in a mass shooting. Yet that isn’t the case.
Did you read my comment? Are you an LLM?
I did. Yes, you are missing something.
