Mother Jones breaks down the numbers

  • Of the 137 guns possessed by the killers, more than three quarters were obtained legally.
  • The average age of the killers was 35. Only one of them was a woman.
  • In the sixty mass shootings, forty two of the killers were white males.

    I’d like to know how many of these mass shootings were stopped by bystanders with concealed weapons… Probably not many.
