Short, good video with John Lott. Thanks for posting.
Interesting chart at the end of the article.
John Lott does good work.
Reminds me of this:
Fraud in Michael Bellesiles’s Arming America

If Lott’s group found 3000 while Langford found only 192, it tells me Langford’s “research” was junior high quality.
There was an earlier report that proved these claims were fake news . It cited world wide mass shootings in; Russia, Asia and Africa which did make the talk show circuit. Most of it perpetrated by Muslems.
I am positive that those people in the media are revealing how pathetic their journalism degrees are as a credible scholarship. If they were into auto mechanics, the wheels would fall off and the doors would fly off the hinges. As a matter of fact, these yahoos should have stuck to auto mechanics at the vocational schools.
Refusing to share his data just screams that the research is questionable, at best. It’s not as if there is some proprietary information that must be kept confidential.
He knows darned well that his research won’t stand up to scrutiny.
Most people with half a brain would be skeptical of the claims, but then we all know that today's journalists are not blessed with a brain that is capable of critical thinking abilities. That is true regardless of the "media" outlet source. There are a few decent journalists, but they are very few in numbers in the entire world today. Thus freedom of the press is worthless anymore, because propaganda rules, not the facts.
What the fake news lacks:
“What a newspaper needs in its news, in its headlines, and on its editorial page is terseness, humor, descriptive power, satire, originality, good literary style, clever condensation and accuracy, accuracy, accuracy.”

TY for putting this up. I didn’t know he had moved to YouTube. Ive always really liked his work but haven’t had a chance to watch in years. Every time I would try and record his show some other garbage, random different shows, would record. Hmmm...where did I set that tinfoil?
Although America is not number one in mass shooters we are number one in stupid, biased liberal reporters.
Bump for reference
School shooting reports are inflated to include very “we think that burrito is a gun” and “there’s a loud bang, we think there’s a shooting”.
The School Shootings That Weren’t

There are only two countries with larger populations than the US.
I’m willing to bet that those two countries are not telling the truth about the number of mass shootings and serial killings inside their borders. If they even have any idea of the real numbers.
Plus; countries in Africa, with much smaller populations than the US, undoubtedly have worse crime statistics. South Africa and Zimbabwe, for sure. But the Leftists wouldn’t count those because they are just trying to eradicate White Privilege. So, no harm, no foul.
Let’s go back to allowing families to institutionalize their crazy family members, and the school shootings will evaporate.
