A study from the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) shows that the United States ranks 64th in the per capita frequency on the list of countries that witnessed mass shootings from 1998 to 2015.
The study also found that while the U.S. constitutes 4.6 percent of the world's population, "it makes up less than 1.15 percent of the mass public shooters" and less than 1.5 percent of their murders.
CPRC used the study's summary to explain: "Over the 18 years from 1998 to 2015, our list contains 2,354 attacks and at least 4,880 shooters outside the United States and 53 attacks and 57 shooters within our country. ... Attacks in the US are not only less frequent than other countries, they are also much less deadly on average."
It added, "Out of the 97 countries where we have identified mass public shootings occurring, the United States ranks 64th in the per capita frequency of these attacks and 65th in the murder rate."
CPRC also notes that attacks in the U.S. are on the decline, that "there has been a much bigger increase over time in the number and severity of mass shootings in the rest of the world compared to the US." ...
